The study of intellectual history might be second only to the novel
in the number of mournful obituaries it has received over the
years. But--if the vibrancy on display in Thinking in the Past
Tense is any indication--reports of the death of intellectual
history have been greatly exaggerated. This collection of
interviews with leading American and European scholars from such
diverse fields as the history of science, classical studies, global
philology, and the study of books and material culture positively
brims with insights on historical scholarship of the early modern
period (ca. 1400-1800). The lively conversations collected here
don't simply reveal these scholars' depth and breadth of
thought--they also disclose the kind of trade secrets that
historians rarely elucidate in print. Thinking in the Past Tense
offers students and professionals alike a rare tactile
understanding of the practice of intellectual history.
