Spaces of Enlightenment Science

By Gordon McOuat

Where did we do science in the Enlightenment and why? This volume brings together leading historians of Early Modern science to explore the places, spaces, and exchanges of Enlightenment knowledge production. Adding to our understanding of the "geographies of knowledge", it examines the relationship between "space" and "place", institutions, "objects", and "ideas", showing the ways in which the location of science really matters.

Contributors are Robert Iliffe, Victor Boantza, Margaret Carlyle, Jasmine Kilburn-Toppin, Trevor H. Levere, Alice Marples, Gordon McOuat, Larry Stewart, Marie Th baud-Sorger, and Simon Werrett.
