dc.description.abstract | This article argues that despite individual Fellows' interest in aristic practices, and
similarities between a philosophical and a connoisseurial appreciation of art, the Royal
Society as an institution may have been wary of image-making as a way of conveying
knowledge because of the power of images to stir the passions and sway the intellect.
Using Robert Hooke as a case study it explores some of the connections between
philosophers and makers in Restoration London. It goes on to suggest that some
epistemic images were in fact designed to elicit an emotional response in their viewers,
in order to force them to re-evaluate the subject-matter by presenting it in a new and
surprising way. | en_GB |
