The Polymath
The first history of the western polymath, from the fifteenth century to the present day From Leonardo Da Vinci to John Dee and Comenius, from George Eliot to Oliver Sacks and Susan Sontag, polymaths have moved the frontiers of knowledge in countless ways. But history can be unkind to scholars with such encyclopaedic interests. All too often these individuals are remembered for just one part of their valuable achievements. In this engaging, erudite account, renowned cultural historian Peter Burke argues for a more rounded view. Identifying 500 western polymaths, Burke explores their wide-ranging successes and shows how their rise matched a rapid growth of knowledge in the age of the invention of printing, the discovery of the New World and the Scientific Revolution. It is only more recently that the further acceleration of knowledge has led to increased specialisation and to an environment that is less supportive of wide-ranging scholars and scientists. Spanning the Renaissance to the present day, Burke changes our understanding of this remarkable intellectual species.

폴리매스
폴리매스란 다양한 분야에 관심과 지식, 전문성을 갖고 출중한 재능을 발휘한 사람들을 말한다. 단순히 천재를 의미하는 게 아니라 탐구 정신을 발휘해 서로 관련 없어 보이는 분야의 경계를 넘나들며 활약했던 인재를 가리킨다. 잘 알려진 르네상스 시대의 레오나르도 다빈치, 코메니우스, 17세기의 라이프니츠, 우리와 동시대를 살았던 올리버 색스와 수전 손택 등은 한 가지만 잘하는 전문가가 아닌 자신의 한계를 규정하지 않고 여러 방면에서 재능을 발휘해 시대를 변화시킨 지식인이자 융합형 인재였다. 흔히 폴리매스는 특...
Forbidden Knowledge
“Wonderful . . . offers and provokes meditation on the timeless nature of censorship, its practices, its intentions and . . . its (unintended) outcomes.” —Times Higher Education Forbidden Knowledge explores the censorship of medical books from their proliferation in print through the prohibitions placed on them during the Counter-Reformation. How and why did books banned in Italy in the sixteenth century end up back on library shelves in the seventeenth? Historian Hannah Marcus uncovers how early modern physicians evaluated the utility of banned books and facilitated their continued circulation in conversation with Catholic authorities. Through extensive archival research, Marcus highl...
Полимат: История универсальных людей от Леонардо да Винчи до Сьюзен Сонтаг
Обычно под полиматами понимают универсальных людей, одаренных в разных областях. Как ни странно, эти удивительные личности, наделенные почти сверхъестественными способностями, почти не изучены как явление. Книга известного историка Питера Бёрка — удачная попытка восполнить этот пробел. Согласно его определению, полиматы — не просто эрудиты с широкими интересами, а ученые, обл...
Les archives familiales en péninsule Ibérique et dans l’Occident chrétien (Moyen Âge, première modernité)
Historiens et archivistes ont noué un dialogue original et fécond pour proposer dans ce volume une réflexion sur les archives dites de famille. Elle confronte les regards, les recherches et des expériences pour un sujet inscrit à la croisée de champs scientifiques renouvelés : l’étude des pratiques de l’écrit, l’histoire des archives – et l’archivistique / l’archival science –, de la parenté. Toutes les dimensions des archives familiales sont interrogées (archives des familles royales – ou du royaume ? –, nobles, dans leur diversité, mais aussi marchandes et paysannes ; fabrique des archives / de la « famille », du lignage, de la Maison ?) dans une péninsule Ibérique ouverte à la comparaison avec d’autres aires géographiques. Dépassant la classique césure entre Moyen Âge et Modernité, la production, conservation, transmission et réorganisation des archives familiales, désormais sujets d’étude per se, sont saisies en mouvement, dans leur historicité et dans la transversalité sociale des pratiques.
