The Enlightenment is generally painted as a movement of ideas and society lasting from the late seventeenth to the early nineteenth century, but this book argues that the Enlightenment is an essential component of modernity itself and in fact can be seen to have lasted from the late sixteenth century to the present day.

Davies | Publisher: Routledge | Publication Date: December 05, 2019 | Number of Pages: 220 pages | Language: English | Binding: Hardcover | ISBN-10: 0367086891 | ISBN-13: 9780367086893

This list examines the influence, depth of insight, and wide-reaching interest across many subjects of various "lovers of wisdom," and ranks them accordingly. It should be noted first and foremost that philosophy in its traditional sense was science - philosophers (like Aristotle) used rationality to come to scientific knowledge of the world around us. It was not until relatively modern times that philosophy was considered to be separate from the physical sciences.

As the U.S. recoils from the divisions of recent years and the scientific community tries to rebuild trust in science, scientists may be tempted to reaffirm their neutrality. If people are to trust us again, as I have frequently heard colleagues argue, we have to be scrupulous about not allowing our values to intrude into our science. This presupposes that value neutrality is necessary for public trust and that it is possible. But available evidence suggests that neither presumption is correct.
Some days ago, Flavien Menu from N-D-L-R published a long post including many images and the introductory text of the "Mnemosyne Atlas" by art historian Aby Warburg (a work left unfinished in 1929). The Mnemosyne Atlas is a figurative atlas consisting of a series of plates. Each plate is made up...

The discovery of the Australian stone is amongst the strongest evidence yet for a Stone Age global civilization, and now, it is no longer possible for the established archaeological community to ignore the results. The angles drawn by the lines are astronomical values used to predict eclipses, and whatever tools were used are not supposed to exist in Australia until 1788.

Lost Words from some Childhoods Mergatroyd! Do you remember that word? Heavens to Mergatroyd! The other day I overheard a not so elderly (let’s say 75) lady say something to her son about driving a Jalopy; and he looked at her quizzically and said, "What the heck is a Jalopy?" He had never heard of the word jalopy! She knew she was old ... But not that old. Well, I hope you are Hunky Dory after you read this and chuckle. A friend and I recently reminisced about some old expressions that have become obsolete, many because of the inexorable march of technology. These phrases included:Don't touch that dial, Carbon copy.You sound like a broken record, Hung out to dry. Back in the olden days we had a lot of moxie . We'd put on our best bib and tucker to straighten up and fly right. Heavens to Betsy! Gee whillikers! Jumping Jehosofat! Holy Moley! We were in like Flynn and living the life of Riley ; Back in the olden days, life used to be swell, but when's the last time anything was swell? Swell has gone the way of beehive hair-do, pageboys and spats, knickers, fedoras, poodle skirts, saddle shoes, and pedal pushers. Kilroy was here, but he isn't anymore. We wake up from what surely has been just a short nap, and before we can say, "Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle!" or, "This is a fine kettle of fish!" We discover that the words we grew up with, the words that seemed omnipresent, like oxygen, have vanished with scarcely a notice from our tongues and our pens and our keyboards. Poof, go the words of our youth, the words we've left behind. We blink, and they're gone. Long gone: Pshaw, The milkman did it. Hey! It's your nickel. Don't forget to pull the chain. Knee high to a grasshopper. Well, Fiddlesticks! Going like sixty. I'll see you in the funny papers. Don't take any wooden nickels. Wake up and smell the roses. It turns out there are more of these lost words and expressions than Carter has liver pills. This can be disturbing stuff! (Carter's Little Liver Pills are gone too!) Leaves us to wonder where Superman will find a phone booth? See ya later, alligator! Okidoki As mentioned yesterday, here, more of the old signs from the Sign Boneyard. The photos aren't great but they will give you an idea of what we saw. And, as we were leaving on the way to WW's car, I saw this beautiful tree from a distance, and then closer, and then closest. Any guesses on what kind? A beautiful video, Moths, here. Just because ... Boat-billed Heron Smiles for Saturday ... Thanks for coming by today ...
