It is unique in taking its global nature as fundamental and contains studies of the theme of motion and knowledge in China, Europe and the Pacific from the 16th to the 18th century..People living around the turn of the 17.th. century were experiencing motion in ways beyond the grasp of anyone less than a century earlier. Goods and people were crossing lands and oceans to distances never envisioned and in scales hardly imaginable by their recent predecessors. The earth itself has been set in motion and the heavens were populated by a whole new array of moving objects: comets, moons, sun spots. Even the motion of terrestrial objects—so close at hand and seemingly obvious—was being thoroughly reshaped. In the two centuries to follow, this incessant, world-changing motion would transform the creation, interpretation and dissemination of knowledge and the life and experiences of the people producing it: savants, artisans, pilots, collectors. . | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Bohemian Journeys; Global Motion and the Production of Knowledge; Traversing Geography and Cultures; Vo | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7383-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-017-7921-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-7383-7Series ISSN 1871-7381 Series E-ISSN 2215-1958 | issn_series | 1871-7381 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014 |
