From Browne to Galileo, from stagecraft to math, from art to the aesthetic, contributors to this collection examine aspects of the period's culture under the dialectic of finding and making. Investigating the question of when and whether the process of discovery is found or made, The Invention of Discovery, 1500ndash;1700 illuminates the profound, and ongoing, effects that Renaissance knowledge practices may have had on the patterns of human understanding.
