Galileo's Idol offers a vivid depiction of Galileo's friend,
student, and patron, Gianfrancesco Sagredo (1571-1620). Sagredo's
life, which has never before been studied in depth, brings to light
the inextricable relationship between the production, distribution,
and reception of political information and scientific knowledge.
Nick Wilding uses as wide a variety of sources as possible -
paintings, ornamental woodcuts, epistolary hoaxes, intercepted
letters, murder case files, and others - to challenge the picture
of early modern science as pious, serious, and ecumenical. Through
his analysis of the figure of Sagredo, Wilding offers a fresh
perspective on Galileo as well as new questions and techniques for
the study of science. The result is a book that turns our attention
from actors as individuals to shifting collective subjects, often
operating under false identities; from a world made of sturdy print
to one of frail instruments and mistranscribed manuscripts; from a
complacent Europe to an emerging system of complex geopolitics and
globalizing information systems; and from an epistemology based on
the stolid problem of eternal truths to one generated through and
in the service of playful, politically engaged, and cunning
schemes.
