Description

This second volume of scholarly papers edited by Professor Robert Fox examines the life and work of Thomas Harriot, a pivotal figure in early modern English science. Compiled from annual Harriot lectures delivered at Oriel College, Oxford between 2000 and 2009, the collection complements the earlier volume published in 2000. The papers explore Harriot's remarkable achievements as a mathematician, investigate why his contributions have been overlooked compared to his contemporary Galileo, and analyse his relationship with his patron Walter Ralegh. The book provides comprehensive insight into Harriot's role in exploration and natural philosophy during the Elizabethan era, offering historians, scholars, and students of science a detailed examination of one of England's most influential but underappreciated scientific minds.
