Fallen Languages: Crises of Representation in Newtonian England, 1660–1740

By (author) Robert Markley





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

According to Robert Markley, historians and philosophers of science who link the rise of science to the rise of modern, objective forms of writing are interpreting the works of Robert Boyle, Isaac Newton, and their contemporaries far too narrowly. Focusing on the crises of representation in the discourse of physico-theology in English natural philosophy from 1660 to 1740, Markley demonstrates the crucial role played by theology in the development of modern science. -- Cornell University Press
