The goal of this book is to locate the birth pangs of
psychology—the study of the psyche—in in the Renaissance unity
of art and science. The historical period 1583-1611 in Prague was a
particularly productive for all Europe in its intellectual
advancements in art and science. It was facilitated by the special
personality of the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II who during his
reign made Prague the capital of the Empire where the major
artists, scientists, architects and alchemists came together in the
service of the Emperor and formed a unique context of
interdisciplinary synthesis of ideas that enhanced European
philosophies, sciences, and arts in the following centuries. While
the history of art in and astronomy in the Rudolfine era has been
amply covered, the impacts of the intellectual atmosphere of the
era on psychology, philosophy, social ideologies, and aesthetics
has remained scarcely investigated. The volume includes analyses of
history of ideas in psychology, sociology and other social sciences
that received the impetus of the political situation of Rudolfine
Prague with religious tolerance and decline of the political power
of the Holy Roman Empire.
