Imperial Unknowns: The French and British in the Mediterranean, 1650-1750
ISBN: 9781107166448 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this major new study, the history of the French and British trading empires in the early modern Mediterranean is used as a setting to test a new approach to the history of ignorance: how can we understand the very act of ignoring - in political, economic, religious, cultural and scientific communication - as a fundamental trigger that sets knowledge in motion? Zwierlein explores whether the Scientific Revolution between 1650 and 1750 can be understood as just one of what were in fact many simultaneous epistemic movements and considers the role of the European empires in this phenomenon....

Prometheus Tamed : Fire, Security, and Modernities, 1400 to 1900
ISBN: 9789004424128 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 548 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over 8,200 large city fires broke out between 1000 and 1939 CE in Central Europe. Prometheus Tamed inquires into the long-term history of that fire ecology, its local and regional frequencies, its relationship to climate history. It asks for the visual and narrative representation of that threat in every-day life. Institutional forms of fire insurance emerged in the form of private joint stock companies (the British model, starting in 1681) or in the form of cameralist fire insurances (the German model, starting in 1676). They contributed to shape and change society, transforming old...

How can one study the absence of knowledge, the voids, the conscious and unconscious unknowns through history? Investigations into late medieval and early modern practices of measuring, of risk calculation, of ignorance within financial administrations, of conceiving the docta ignorantia as well as the silence of the illiterate are combined with contributions regarding knowledge gaps within identification procedures and political decision-making, with the emergence of consciously delimited blanks on geographical maps, with ignorance as a factor embedded in iconographic programs, in...

The Power of the Dispersed: Early Modern Global Travelers beyond Integration
ISBN: 9789004412484 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Early modern travelers often did not form part of classic ‘diaspora’ communities: they frequently never really settled, perhaps remaining abroad for some time in one place, then traveling further; not ‘blown by the wind,’ but by changing and complex conditions that often turned out to make them unwelcome anywhere. The dispersed developed strategies of survival by keeping their distance from old and new temporary ‘homes,’ as well as by using information from and manipulating foreign representations of their former countries. This volume assembles case studies from the...

Fruits of Migration: Heterodox Italian Migrants and Central European Culture 1550-1620
ISBN: 9789004345669 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Migration is a problem of highest importance today, and likewise is its history. Italian migrants who had to leave the peninsula in the long sixteenth century because of their heterodox Protestant faith is a topic that has its deep roots in Italian Renaissance scholarship since Delio Cantimori: It became a part of a twentieth century form of Italian leyenda negra in liberal historiography. But its international dimension and Central Europe (not only Germany) as destination of that movement has often been neglected. Three different levels of connectivity are addressed: the materiality of...
