Book Synopsis The Age of Curiosity by : Simone Broders
Download or read book The Age of Curiosity written by Simone Broders and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging the ‘success story’ of curiosity from original sin to intellectual virtue, this study uses an innovative methodological approach to the history of ideas as a non-teleological neural network based on current research in information technology and neurophysiology. The network offers a dynamic alternative to the ‘development’ of curiosity within the progress-oriented mythology of the Enlightenment, emphasizing the oscillation and interaction of ideas within the processes of their construction, as well as exposing the power relations behind them. The text corpus focuses on enactments of curiosity in English literature of the 'Long' Eighteenth Century (c. 1680-1818), such as transgression of boundaries, breach of taboo, gendered curiosity, sensationalism, or academic endeavour, bringing together a variety of examples from all major genres. The Age of Curiosity contributes to current debates on a post-Foucauldian renewal of Lovejoy’s history of ideas in Enlightenment studies, exploring both curiosity as an indispensable trait for the search of answers to the fundamental yet unresolved questions of ‘identity’ or ‘truth’, and its potential as cura, the care for others and the world.
Book Synopsis Enlightened Religion by : Joke Spaans
Download or read book Enlightened Religion written by Joke Spaans and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the relation between religion and Enlightenment has been virtually rewritten In recent decades. The idea of a fairly unidirectional ‘rise of paganism’, or ‘secularisation’, has been replaced by a much more variegated panorama of interlocking changes—not least in the nature of both religion and rationalism. This volume explores developments in various cultural fields—from lexicology to geographical exploration, and from philosophy and history to theology, media and the arts—involved in the transformation of worldviews in the decades around 1700. The main focus is on the Dutch Republic, where discussion culture was more inclusive than in most other countries, and where people from very different walks of life joined the conversation. Contributors include: Wiep van Bunge, Frank Daudeij, Martin Gierl, Albert Gootjes, Trudelien van ‘t Hof, Jonathan Israel, Henri Krop, Fred van Lieburg, Jaap Nieuwstraten, Joke Spaans, Jetze Touber, and Arthur Weststeijn.

Book Synopsis Notable Encyclopedias of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries by : Frank A. Kafker
Download or read book Notable Encyclopedias of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries written by Frank A. Kafker and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General encyclopedias illuminate the culture of an era, but they tend to be neglected as a subject of scholarly research. This is especially true for the period from 1674 to 1750. Of the more than thirty encyclopedias published in those years, the contributors to this book examine nine of the most important, paying particular attention to their publishing history, editing, prose style, political and religious views, and contents as books of knowledge. Seven of them - those either in English or French - went into at least five editions. The other two encyclopedias are Johann Heinrich Zedler's German-language Universal-lexicon, by far the longest European encyclopedia of the period, and Gianfrancesco Pivati's Nuovo dizionario, the first learned alphabetized Italian encyclopedia to be completed. Also, at least seven of the nine works deserve notice, because they served as models or sources for the Encyclop die. The epilogue of this study compares the Encyclop die with the nine predecessors so that the renowned work edited by Diderot and D'Alembert can be more accurately evaluated and appreciated once a previously ignored part of its background is clarified. This book is a companion to Notable encyclopedias of the late eighteenth century: eleven successors of the 'Encyclop die' (SVEC 315, 1994), edited by Frank A. Kafker.
