Book Cabinets of Experimental Philosophy in Eighteenth Century Europe

Download or read book Cabinets of Experimental Philosophy in Eighteenth Century Europe written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cabinets of Experimental Philosophy in Eighteenth-Century Europe is an ambitious contribution to the growing interest in how science came to engage the attention of a public outside the academic and professional spheres and how collections of instruments played a formative role in this development. Collections of physical instruments for research and demonstration appeared throughout Europe in the eighteenth century and the coverage of the book is correspondingly broad. While collections in different cultural and geographical locations had much in common, there were significant local modifications. The essays in this book illustrate how science, sometimes thought to be monolithic and universal, can maintain core intellectual characteristics and practical techniques while adapting to particular sites and circumstances. Contributors include: Jim Bennett, Sofia Talas, Huib J. Zuidervaart, Hans Hooijmaijers, Ad Maas, Tiemen Cocquyt, Inga Elmqvist Söderlund, Paola Bertucci, Marta C. Lourenço, David Felismino, Ivano Dal Prete, Ewa Wyka, Martin Weiss, and Paolo Brenni.

Book The Art of Philosophy

    Book Details:
  • Author : Susanna Berger
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2017-02-28
  • ISBN : 1400885124
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book The Art of Philosophy written by Susanna Berger and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to explore the role of images in philosophical thought and teaching in the early modern period Delving into the intersections between artistic images and philosophical knowledge in Europe from the late sixteenth to the early eighteenth centuries, The Art of Philosophy shows that the making and study of visual art functioned as important methods of philosophical thinking and instruction. From frontispieces of books to monumental prints created by philosophers in collaboration with renowned artists, Susanna Berger examines visual representations of philosophy and overturns prevailing assumptions about the limited function of the visual in European intellectual history. Rather than merely illustrating already existing philosophical concepts, visual images generated new knowledge for both Aristotelian thinkers and anti-Aristotelians, such as Descartes and Hobbes. Printmaking and drawing played a decisive role in discoveries that led to a move away from the authority of Aristotle in the seventeenth century. Berger interprets visual art from printed books, student lecture notebooks, alba amicorum (friendship albums), broadsides, and paintings, and examines the work of such artists as Pietro Testa, Léonard Gaultier, Abraham Bosse, Dürer, and Rembrandt. In particular, she focuses on the rise and decline of the "plural image," a genre that was popular among early modern philosophers. Plural images brought multiple images together on the same page, often in order to visualize systems of logic, metaphysics, natural philosophy, or moral philosophy. Featuring previously unpublished prints and drawings from the early modern period and lavish gatefolds, The Art of Philosophy reveals the essential connections between visual commentary and philosophical thought.

Download or read book An Art Philosopher s Cabinet written by Marion Mills Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Art Philosopher's Cabinet: Being Salient Passages From the Works on Comparative AEsthetics of George Lansing Raymond, L. H. D.; Former Professor of AEsthetic Criticism in Princeton University The rounded work of a critic is both destructive and constructive, the former, in its office of preparation for upbuilding, being in character no less creative than the latter. For effectiveness there must be fixed purpose in the work from the beginning, and a determined and original method of achieving the ultimate object. In short, a true critic must be a philosopher in the domain of his activity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book An Art Philosopher s Cabinet

Download or read book An Art Philosopher s Cabinet written by Marion Mills Miller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Art Philosopher's Cabinet: Being Salient Passages From the Works on Comparative Æsthetics of George Lansing Raymond, L. H. D.; Former Professor of Æsthetic Criticism in Princeton University The epigram, that most convincing form of argument, while it effectively destroys unsound opinions prevalent among people who let some one else do their thinking, may itself become the mother of error when it is in turn accepted without examination as to its positive truth. Of this the popular epigrammatic definition of critics, so effectively used by Benjamin Disraeli in his novel of Lothair, as "the men who have failed in literature and art," is an example. It attacks unwarranted pretense on the part of those assuming to be authorities in these subjects, and unquestioning acceptance of them as such by the general public, and, at the same time, appeals by its slur to the element of malice latent in the human breast which springs gleefully into expression when that which is conceived to be a mask concealing real character and motives is removed. For these reasons, this epigram has been successful in its purpose where a plain statement of the need of examining the credentials of those sitting in judgment would have made no impression. The error which the epigram propagates is in its sweeping assertion that all those who assume to be critics are failures as creative artists, - a patent untruth, but accepted for the sake of the slur without regard to the injurious effect that it may have on uninformed minds. Thus this epigram has been popularly exalted to a postulate; qualification to criticize has been accepted as proving inability to create; and, as an inevitable corollary, criticism has been deemed an inferior form of writing, indeed practically worthless. To confute these errors, a plain statement of facts showing that great artists like Leonardo da Vinci and great poets like Coleridge have been supreme critics does not seem all that is demanded.
