Book Scientific Practices in European History  1200 1800

Download or read book Scientific Practices in European History 1200 1800 written by Peter Dear and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Practices in European History, 1200–1800 presents and situates a collection of extracts from both widely known texts by such figures as Copernicus, Newton, and Lavoisier, and lesser known but significant items, all chosen to provide a perspective on topics in social, cultural and intellectual history and to illuminate the concerns of the early modern period. The selection of extracts highlights the emerging technical preoccupations of this period, while the accompanying introductions and annotations make these occasionally complex works accessible to students and non-specialists. The book follows a largely chronological sequence and helps to locate scientific ideas and practices within broader European history. The primary source materials in this collection stand alone as texts in themselves, but in illustrating the scientific components of early modern societies they also make this book ideal for teachers and students of European history.

Book Pirotechnia

  • Author : Vannoccio Biringuccio
  • Publisher : MIT Press
  • Release : 1966-03-15
  • ISBN : 0262520176
  • Pages : 508 pages

Download or read book Pirotechnia written by Vannoccio Biringuccio and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1966-03-15 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally printed in 1540, this classic work on the field of metallurgy marked the beginning of a true technological literature. Biringuccio's Pirotechnia is the earliest printed work to cover the whole field of metallurgy. Originally printed in Venice in 1540, this was the first book to deal with the applied metal arts and processes of ore reduction and to describe the techniques which had been in development since the bronze age. Written by a master craftsman in a time when knowledge was kept alive by the spoken rather than the written word, this classic marked the beginning of a true technological literature, with both craftsmanship and science united by a writer's pen to form a record of an important facet of man's achievement as a stimulus to further advance. After the publication of the Pirotechnia, many followed Biringuccio's example, and as a result of this growing literature of technological practice and experimental fact, science eventually became the concern of the educated man.
