Like Fumaroli, Houellebecq rehearses the arguments of reformist iconoclasm and the quarrel between the Ancients and the Moderns (and Post-Moderns) within the context of a catholic cultural heritage. This is shaken by the lowbrow liberal tidal wave coming from post Revolutionary and contemporary American culture.
