Visualizing Science in Media Revolutions

This conference brings together almost five years of research from the Max Planck Research Group “Visualizing Science in Media Revolutions.” The Research Group has compared different scientific disciplines of the late medieval and early modern periods, from anatomy to the study of magnetism. The Group has specifically worked on the role and function of abstract images and diagrams as well as on the role and function of various media, such as drawing, print, and painting in knowledge production. This conference will be the first time that all past and present scholars of the research group come together in conversation on these topics and the state of their research.
