Book Synopsis Leibniz: What Kind of Rationalist? by : Marcelo Dascal
Download or read book Leibniz: What Kind of Rationalist? written by Marcelo Dascal and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-09 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was an outstanding contributor to many fields of human knowledge. The historiography of philosophy has tagged him as a “rationalist”. But what does this exactly mean? Is he a “rationalist” in the same sense in Mathematics and Politics, in Physics and Jurisprudence, in Metaphysics and Theology, in Logic and Linguistics, in Technology and Medicine, in Epistemology and Ethics? What are the most significant features of his “rationalism”, whatever it is? For the first time an outstanding group of Leibniz researchers, some acknowledged as leading scholars, others in the beginning of a promising career, who specialize in the most significant areas of Leibniz’s contributions to human thought and action, were requested to spell out the nature of his rationalism in each of these areas, with a view to provide a comprehensive picture of what it amounts to, both in its general drive and in its specific features and eventual inner tensions. The chapters of the book are the result of intense discussion in the course of an international conference focused on the title question of this book, and were selected in view of their contribution to this topic. They are clustered in thematically organized parts. No effort has been made to hide the controversies underlying the different interpretations of Leibniz’s “rationalism” – in each particular domain and as a whole. On the contrary, the editor firmly believes that only through a variety of conflicting interpretive perspectives can the multi-faceted nature of an oeuvre of such a magnitude and variety as Leibniz’s be brought to light and understood as it deserves.

Book Synopsis The Colonial Machine by : James Edward McClellan (III)
Download or read book The Colonial Machine written by James Edward McClellan (III) and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of modern science and European colonial and imperial expansion are indisputably two defining elements of modern world history. James E. McClellan III and Francois Regourd explore these two world-historical forces and their interactions in this comprehensive and in-depth history of the French case in the Old Regime presented here for the first time. The case is key because no other state matched Old-Regime France as a center for organized science and because contemporary France closely rivaled Britain as a colonial power, as well as leading all other nations in commodity production and participating in the slave trade. Based on extensive archival research and vast primary and secondary literatures and sharply reframing the historiography of the field, this landmark volume traces the development and significance for early-modern history of the Colonial Machine of Old-Regime France, an unparalleled agglomeration of institutions geared to the success of the French colonial enterprise, including the Royal Navy, the Academie Royale des Sciences, the Jardin du Roi, and a host of related specialist institutions working together at home and overseas. Mainly supported by the French state, the Colonial Machine reveals itself through its actions from the time of Colbert and Louis XIV as it grappled with fundamental problems facing contemporary European colonialism: cartography and navigation; medical care of sailors, colonists, and slaves; and applied botany and commodity production. Historians of globalization and European overseas expansion, of Old-Regime France, and of science in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries will henceforth take this stimulating volume as a necessary starting point for further reflection and research. Nominated for the Mary Alice and Philip Boucher Book Prize.

Book Synopsis Antiquities Acquired by : Catherine Philippa Bracken
Download or read book Antiquities Acquired written by Catherine Philippa Bracken and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the extraordinary, often shocking, story of how Greece was despoiled of much of her treasures in the early nineteenth century -- The treasures that are now priceless exhibits in the great museums of the world. Lord Elgin acquired the famous marbles that bear his name, but he was not the only one to take part in a kind of free-for-all, not so far removed from modern vandalism: many amateur and semi-professional collectors were at work, taking what they could get for paltry sums, bribes or nothing at all, blissfully blind to the havoc they wrecked... Miss Bracken has lived for long periods in Greece, visiting sites of its classical civilisation. Her interest in the spoliators was first aroused by the names carved with laborious care on many of the monuments; one example is the column at Delphi inscribed by Lords Aberdeen and Bryon. This is a book that will fill in the often colourful background to Greek treasures in museums and Greece itself.
