The Palace of Secrets: Beroalde de Verville and Renaissance Conceptions of Knowledge
ISBN: 9780198158622 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the Renaissance, different conceptions of knowledge were debated.

This study explores the tension between these two views, examining the theories of knowledge, uses of genre, and the role of fiction in philosophical texts. Drawing on examples from sixteenth and seventeenth- century texts, and particularly focusing on...

ISBN: 9780300056686 / Angielski / Miękka / 123 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This penetrating rebuttal of the revisionists deserves high commendation."--Choice "Martz draws a...
