Description

This scholarly collection brings together sixteen seminal papers by Rhoda Rappaport, a leading historian of early modern science who spent five decades analysing the cultural dimensions of scientific development in Europe, particularly France. The volume focuses primarily on geology's emergence and cultivation throughout the extended eighteenth century, tracing intellectual currents from Hooke, Leibniz, and Fontenelle through to Lavoisier, Werner, and Cuvier. Rappaport's work examines crucial developments including the French mineralogical mapping project directed by Guettard and contemporary approaches to interpreting Earth's history, offering essential insights into how geology became established as a scientific discipline during this transformative period.

Key Features

Comprises sixteen peer-reviewed papers spanning Rhoda Rappaport's distinguished five-decade career in the history of science and geology.

Focuses on geology's development throughout the long eighteenth century, from early modern pioneers like Hooke and Leibniz to late-century figures including Lavoisier, Werner, and Cuvier.

Examines the French mineralogical mapping project initiated by Guettard and its significance in the history of geological science.

Explores contemporary eighteenth-century efforts to develop historical interpretations of the Earth and its formation.

Published by Routledge as part of the Variorum Collected Studies series, presenting Rappaport's most important contributions to the history of early modern European science.
