Book excerpt: A nuanced reframing of the dual importance of reading and observation for early modern naturalists. Historians traditionally argue that the sciences were born in early modern Europe during the so-called Scientific Revolution. At the heart of this narrative lies a supposed shift from the knowledge of books to the knowledge of things. The attitude of the new-style intellectual broke with the text-based practices of erudition and instead cultivated an emerging empiricism of observation and experiment. Rather than blindly trusting the authority of ancient sources such as Pliny and Aristotle, practitioners of this experimental philosophy insisted upon experiential proof. In A Centaur in London, Fabian Kraemer calls a key tenet of this master narrative into question—that the rise of empiricism entailed a decrease in the importance of reading practices. Kraemer shows instead that the early practices of textual erudition and observational empiricism were by no means so remote from one another as the traditional narrative would suggest. He argues that reading books and reading the book of nature had a great deal in common—indeed, that reading texts was its own kind of observation. Especially in the case of rare and unusual phenomena like monsters, naturalists were dependent on the written reports of others who had experienced the good luck to be at the right place at the right time. The connections between compiling examples from texts and from observation were especially close in such cases. A Centaur in London combines the history of scholarly reading with the history of scientific observation to argue for the sustained importance of both throughout the Renaissance and provides a nuanced, textured portrait of early modern naturalists at work.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author investigates the parallels between Haller's poetic and scientific writings by comparing selected poems from Haller's «Versuch Schweizerischer Gedichte» with various scientific works, with respect to subject matter, structure, and style. The themes discussed in the four chapters are: nature landscape description; truth, reason, knowledge, and their limits; theodicy, infinity, and the search for original causes. Also, a specific philosophical problem, theodicy in the poem «Über den Ursprung des Übels», is compared to a specific scientific problem, the nature of irritability and sensibility in «De partibus corporis humani sensilibus et irritabilibus», with emphasis on Haller's working method.

Download or read book Women s Healthcare in the Medieval West written by Monica H. Green and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of seven major essays (one of them published here for the first time), Monica Green argues that a history of women's healthcare in medieval western Europe has not yet been written because it cannot yet be written - the vast majority of texts relating to women's healthcare have never been edited or studied. Using the insights of women's history and gender studies, Green shows how historians need to peel off the layers of unfounded assumption and stereotype that have characterized the little work that has been done on medieval women's healthcare. Seen in their original contexts, medieval gynecological texts raise questions of women's activity as healthcare providers and recipients, as well as questions of how the sexual division of labor, literacy, and professionalization functioned in the production and use of medical knowledge on the female body. An appendix lists all known medieval gynecological texts in Latin and the western European vernacular languages.
