Kathleen Davis’s research suggests that the claim to separate out the “religious” and the “secular” is above all a bid for sovereignty, one that the narrative of periodization often obscures. Her current project turns to the history of natural rights, which is likewise inflected by the narrative of periodization and the politics it serves.
