Spreading the word: practices of discipleship in early modern natural philosophy
Published 2023“…In this context, my work explores the fundamental role that the emergence of post-Copernican discipleship relations played in the achievements of the great new <i>auctores</i> Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, and Isaac Newton. The analysis of these four cases offers a kaleidoscopic view of the evolution of the master-disciple relationship in astronomy and natural philosophy from 1530 to 1720, and highlights how different social, religious, and political contexts shaped this process both inside and outside the university.…”
