Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Used - like new Ships from the USA. In this provocative and broad-ranging work, the authors argue that the ways in which knowledge - scientific, social and cultural - is produced are undergoing fundamental changes at the end of the twentieth century. They claim that these changes mark a distinct shift into a new mode of knowledge production which is replacing or reforming established institutions, disciplines, practices and policies. Identifying features of the new mode of knowledge production - reflexivity, transdisciplinarity, heterogeneity - the authors show how these features connect with the changing role of knowledge in social relations. While the knowledge produced by research and development in science and technology is accorded central concern, the.

paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 2012 Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies (Toronto, Ontario, Canada), 6 x 9 inches tall trade paperback in glossy color pictorial covers, index, xxxiii, 271 pp. Very slight soiling and edgewear to covers. Bumping to the upper tip of the rear cover. Otherwise, a very good to near fine copy - clean, bright and unmarked. ~DD~ [2.0P] Translated into English for the first time by Richard Newhauser, this work is a translation of the Tractatus moralis de oculo, a late 13th-century 'bestseller' written by the scholar Peter of Limoges at the University of Paris. The book bridges two seemingly conflicting medieval topics: optical science and Christian pastoral care. Peter of Limoges took contemporary mathematical and physical discoveries regarding optics ? derived from ancient Greek and Arabic scientists ? and applied them metaphorically to moral theology, spiritual devotion, and ethics. Alongside the primary text, the 2012 volume includes an extensive introductory essay by Newhauser that details the life of Peter of Limoges, his intellectual circle, and the historical conflict between science and theology. It also includes comprehensive reference tools, specifically a detailed index of classical and medieval sources, an analogue index, and a bibliography. Contents: On the number of parts comprising the eye; On the order of the parts in the composition of the eye; On the number of types of vision; On the means of vision; On the organ in which vision is completed; On 13 extraordinary phenomena that are related to lessons concerning eyesight; On moral instruction according to twelve properties that have been ascertained in the corporeal eye; On seven distinctions of the eyes according to the distinction of the seven capital vices; On the costliness of the eyes in respect to other members of the human body; On suffering the loss of the corporeal e yes with equanimity; On the education of students based on the seven conditions that are required for sight; On the instruction of prelates based on seven properties of the eyes; On the four things spiritual eyes should contemplate continually; On three visible things that delight the corporeal eye; On the sevenfold eye of the divine gaze.

Couverture souple. Condizione: Très bon. « Ce livre relève le défi de présenter au lecteur une synthèse originale de l'histoire des sciences en prenant comme fil conducteur les porteurs du savoir, des premiers scribes mésopotamiens et égyptiens jusqu'à Newton et aux savants de l'époque moderne, en passant par Platon, Aristote, Ptolémée, Galien, Pline, Averroès, Copernic, Galilée. On y découvre les conditions techniques, institu­tionnelles et sociales qui, au cours des siècles, rendent compte des déplacements des grands centres de savoir. On y apprend comment les conceptions du monde ont été transformées par l'invention de l'imprimerie, les voyages des explorateurs et les travaux des astronomes, des géographes et des naturalistes. On y voit naître de nouveaux types d'institutions comme l'Académie de Platon, le Musée d'Alexandrie ou les universités médiévales et les académies de l'âge moderne, qui ont assuré tour à tour la gestation et la transmission de formes diverses de savoirs dont nous sommes les héritiers.» Un minuscule point en deuxième de couverture et sur garde volante.

On y découvre les conditions techniques, institutionnelles et sociales qui, au cours des siècles, rendent compte des déplacements des grands centres de savoir, de Milet et d'Athènes à Alexandrie, Rome et Bagdad, pour revenir ensuite vers Padoue, Londres et Paris. On y apprend comment les conceptions du monde ont été transformées par l'invention de l'imprimerie, les voyages des explorateurs et les travaux des astronomes, des géographes et des naturalistes, de même que par l'invention du télescope, du microscope et des autres instruments scientifiques qui ont rendu visibles des phénomènes jusque-là inaccessibles à l'observation. On y voit naître de nouveaux types d'institutions comme l'Académie de Platon, le Musée d'Alexandrie ou les universités médiévales et les académies de l'âge moderne, qui ont assuré tour à tour la gestation et la transmission de formes diverses de savoirs dont nous sommes les héritiers.
