Historical research in previous decades has done a great deal to
explore the social and political context of early modern natural
and moral inquiries. Particularly since the publication of Steven
Shapin and Simon Schaffer's Leviathan and the Air-Pump (1985)
several studies have attributed epistemological stances and debates
to clashes of political and theological ideologies. The present
volume suggests that with an awareness of this context, it is now
worth turning back to questions of the epistemic content itself.
The contributors to the present collection were invited to explore
how certain non-epistemic values had been turned into epistemic
ones, how they had an effect on epistemic content, and eventually
how they became ideologies of knowledge playing various roles in
inquiry and application throughout early modern Europe.
