Samuel Hartlib was a key figure in the intellectual revolution of
the seventeenth century. Originally from Elbing, in Prussig,
Hartlib settled permanently in England from the late 1620s until
his death in 1662. His aspirations formed a distinctive and
influential strand in English intellectual life during those
revolutionary decades. This volume reflects the variety of the
theoretical and practical interests of Hartlib's circle and
presents them in their continental context. The editors of the
volume are all attached to the Hartlib Papers Project at the
University of Sheffield, a major collaborative research effort to
exploit the largely untapped resources of the surviving Hartlib
manuscripts. In an introduction to the volume they explore the
background to the Hartlib circle and provide the context in which
the essays should be read.
