On Which Day Exactly Did Galileo Start the Scientific Revolution?

J.B. Shank – noted professor of history at the University of Minnesota, and this year’s Baker-Nord Center Scholar-in-Residence – challenges some widely-held views of Galileo as the figure who launched the Scientific Revolution. His lecture will question the necessity and usefulness of this canonical understanding while exploring all the many ways that Galileo was, nevertheless, a sparklingly brilliant embodiment of early modernity.
