Mario Biagioli (1955โ€“2025) Over the years I have gained a reputation for being extremely negative about Galileo Galilei and his supposed achievements and contributions to the evolution of science. As I point out from time toโ€ฆ

How did #almanacs provide orientation for a "New World"? I'll be talking about Spanish-American almanacs in this fantastic workshop in Fribourg, Switzerland organised by Vitus Huber. If you are interested in #earlymodern uses of #time take a look at the programme #histsci

Iโ€™m in London for the Lisa Jardine Grant researching into the early Royal Societyโ€™s interest on the stars, the geography, the plants, and nature of Iberian-American worlds. If youโ€™re around, drop me a line and letโ€™s meet for a coffee!

This fantastic collection of bibliographic essays is not just a narrative guide to scholarship about past epidemics but a collective reckoning with the limitations of #histmed #histsci in the face of a pandemic.

All #openaccess and highly recommended.
