Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, today's seminar will no take place. Sorry!
A nice seminar organized in Venice/online - it remains difficult to discuss about mechanization and mechanical philosophy in the early modern period, and perhaps it is no more possible to do it with Descartes/Cartesian philo, but this is a great lineup of scholars #17thcentury #histsci #histphilo
This is next week, Tuesday 27th January - discussing ontology in Clauberg and the 17th century with Alice Ragni, Lucia Oliveri and Andrea Strazzoni (in English)
