Simon Schaffer in Paris: "Measure et its rituals. For a global history of science"
Dear
colleagues,
I wish to
recommend the video capture of the lecture Simon Schaffer granted us in Ehess
Paris early June 2014 (and its introduction by Pierre-Cyrille Hautcoeur). To
give you a tasty bit of it, he revisits Marc Bloch's Royal Touch, the
epistemology of measure, and the history of European capitalism.
The video can
be found here.
With best
wishes,
Christelle Rabier
