Synopsis

This book forms part of a series of publications on science and literature, exploring the connection between arts, sciences, and technology to unpack the cultural landscape of centuries. The author here focuses on the 15th-century phenomenon of scientific illustration in Western Europe. The focus of this book is on manuscripts and printed books in which artistic, literary, and scientific topics were combined in fascinating ways. It examines the era’s scientific concepts and the ways in which these were not only disseminated through written texts but also through artistic representations. The author illustrates how understanding this cross-disciplinary approach is essential for a well-rounded view of both the science and art of Western Europe during this time of intellectual ferment.
