Talk on Early Modern Science by Rare Bookseller Rhinnaon Knol

Please join us for the talk "Aristotle, Columbus, and Other Big Mistakes that Shaped the Modern World" by Rhiannon Knol. She will discuss the role wrong ideas have played in Renaissance and early modern science, focusing on the writings of Aristotle, Christopher Columbus, and Athanasius Kircher—and reactions by their readers, from Galileo and Harvey to Sor Juana de la Cruz—and on the ongoing negotiation of authority, empiricism, and imagination in scientific and philosophical discourse.
