Gegeneinander glauben -- miteinander forschen? - Paradigmenwechsel fruhneuzeitlicher Wissenschaftskulturen (Hardcover)

The thematic starting point of the volume is the changing relationship between early modern astronomy and physics and the Christian religion in general and its denomination-specific characteristics in particular. Against this background, the collected contributions take a look at the corresponding processes associated with the change in the world view based on the paradigm shift tending towards transconfessionality in the early modern scientific cultures. The world, whose images went through a change, the natural sciences that drove change, and the theologies that said goodbye to former certainties about God and the world, constituted themselves anew and had a decisive influence on life and natural research in the early modern period, a grateful area for an interdenominational comparative study of denominational specifics.
