Encountering Water in Early Modern Europe and Beyond

Redefining the Universe through Natural Philosophy, Religious Reformations, and Sea Voyaging

Beschreibung

Both the Christian Bible and Aristotle's works suggest that water should entirely flood the earth. This book investigates why 16th century Europeans were so interested in water's failure to submerge the earth when their predecessors had not been.
