Making Knowledge Visible: An Exhibition of Rare Books from the CRRS Collection

This exhibition will showcase a selection of rare books in the CRRS collections that reveal the many and varied ways early modern thinkers investigated, understood, and depicted the world. Inspired by Scientiae’s mandate, our selections cut across disciplinary boundaries and include works of cosmology, astronomy, and astrology; geometry, architecture, and technology; alchemy, medicine, and natural history.
