Gardens, Knowledge and the Sciences in the Early Modern Period
Author: Hubertus FischerPublisher: Birkhäuser
ISBN: 3319263420
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
This volume focuses on the outstanding contributions made by botany and the mathematical sciences to the genesis and development of early modern garden art and garden culture. The many facets of the mathematical sciences and botany point to the increasingly “scientific” approach that was being adopted in and applied to garden art and garden culture in the early modern period. This development was deeply embedded in the philosophical, religious, political, cultural and social contexts, running parallel to the beginning of processes of scientization so characteristic for modern European history. This volume strikingly shows how these various developments are intertwined in gardens for various purposes.

Festivals and the French Revolution
Author: Mona OzoufPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674298842
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
Festivals and the French Revolution--the subject conjures up visions of goddesses of Liberty, strange celebrations of Reason, and the oddly pretentious cult of the Supreme Being. Every history of the period includes some mention of festivals; Ozouf shows us that they were much more than bizarre marginalia to the revolutionary process.
