Description

Explore ten centuries of European scientific thought with this comprehensive collection from Harvard University Press. This volume provides a rare opportunity to study the development of science in a medieval context, highlighting its role in preserving and transmitting Greek and Arabic achievements. This source book contains approximately 190 selections from about 85 different authors, with a focus on those from the Latin West. It serves as a vital resource for understanding how scientific ideas were shaped and shared during this era. Notably, nearly half of the included selections appear here for the first time in any vernacular translation. The readings, which include several complete treatises, are specifically chosen to represent the concept of science as it was understood in the medieval period rather than through a modern lens.
