Scientific culture was one of the defining characteristics of the
English Enlightenment. The latest discoveries were debated in
homes, institutions and towns around the country. Enlightenment,
Modernity and Science provides the first full length study of the
geographies of Georgian scientific culture in England. The author
takes the reader on a tour of the principal arenas in which
scientific ideas were disseminated, including home, town and
countryside, to show how cultures of science and knowledge varied
across the Georgian landscape. Taking in key figures such as
Erasmus Darwin, Abraham Bennett, and Joseph Priestley along the
way, it is a work that sheds important light on the complex
geographies of Georgian English scientific culture.
