Description

Explore the significant role of the Society of Jesus in the scientific advancements of the early modern period. This volume, part of the Archimedes series, examines the heavy presence of Jesuits in 16th and 17th-century mathematics and science. While some historians previously questioned the originality of Jesuit scientists, this work looks at the connection between their numerical strength and their historical impact. It follows the perspective of George Sarton, who argued that the sheer number of Jesuits involved in scientific enterprises contributed to their lasting influence on the field. This book provides a deep look into the historical context of religious orders and their contributions to the scientific enterprise. It is an essential resource for scholars studying the history of science, religious history, and the development of mathematical thought during the seventeenth century.
