Inhoud:

Grafton reveals the microdynamics of the scholarly life through a series of essays on institutions and on scholars ranging from early modern polymaths to modern intellectual historians to American thinkers and writers. Graftonâs engaging, erudite essays could be a rallying cry for the revival of the liberal arts.
