Produktinformationen zu „Globalization of Knowledge in the Post-Antique Mediterranean, 700-1500 (PDF)“
The contributions to this volume enter into a dialogue about the routes, modes and institutions that transferred and transformed knowledge across the late antique Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf. Each contribution not only presents a different case study but also investigates a different type of question, ranging from how history-writing drew on cross-culturally constructed stories and shared sets of skills and values, to how an ancient warlord was transformed into the iconic hero of a newly created monotheistic religion.
Autoren-Porträt
Sonja Brentjes is researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin and member of the International Academy for the History of Science in Paris. She studies the institutional and intellectual history of the sciences in past Islamicate societies (patronage, madrasas, translations, maps, sciences and the arts), cross-cultural encounters in Africa, western Asia and Europe and historiographical issues of the narration of the sciences in Islamicate societies in their relationship to antiquity, the Middle Ages and the early modern period. Jurgen Renn is Director at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin and Honorary Professor for History of Science at both the Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin and the Freie Universitat Berlin. His research looks at structural changes in systems of knowledge with the aim of developing a theoretical understanding of knowledge evolution, taking into account its epistemic, social and material dimensions. As groundwork for such a theoretical approach to the history of knowledge, he studies some of the great transformations of systems of physical knowledge, such as the origin of theoretical science in antiquity, the emergence of classical mechanics in the early modern period and the revolutions of modern physics in the early twentieth century.
