| Summary: | This volume collects selected papers from two seminar series held at All Souls, Oxford, devoted to early modern thinkers who were considered by their contemporaries to hold heterodox views in science (loosely defined), religion, or both. Speakers were asked to consider the relationship between religious and scientific belief, and in particular the question of whether a homology existed between heterodoxy in the two areas. The essays, which range across the period 1500 to 1800, are best understood as contributions to the growing literature considering the historical relationship between science and theology., The volume opens with an introduction by Ian Maclean which offers a helpful consideration of the development of the term heterodoxy. |
