Coming up next week: a meeting on quantification of matter featuring brilliant scholars. From the #MiddleAges to early #modernity, we'll grapple with different (quantifying) accounts of reality. It's also on Zoom (link via email), so don't miss it! #HistSci #HistPhil
CfP on a marvelous topic, imho, especially because I organise the conference myself (with Sébastien Moureau): "Verbositas Arabica, implicatio Graeca, paucitas Latina. Multilingual Text Traditions in the Middle Ages (8th–14th Century)" (20–22 Jan 2027). #medievalsky hiw.kuleuven.be/dwmc/researc...
Getting roasted by the mathematicians this week 😬 but we’re jumping into 14th-c. mathematical problems loaded with unknowns, and I’m actually excited #HistMath
A 1551 print of Ptolemy’s Almagest annotated by Galileo Galilei has been newly discovered in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze! 🌙🔭🪐 #HistSci

Refined. Audacious. Philosophical to the core. I’ve just come out of a lecture by (my favorite philosophical voice today) @leaypi.bsky.social at Collège de France. And it left me wanting to read Hermann Cohen.

Congrats to new PhD Silvia Cerasaro, who last week defended her thesis at the Dept. of Mathematics, Tor Vergata (Rome)! She showed how history of math can support math teaching in primary school. Fibonacci on fractions was her case study. I advised her on the medieval side of the project.
Premodern Mathematical Thought is out! I'm so grateful to the brilliant contributors who trusted me as editor. Among them: Mancosu,Trifogli, Rommevaux, Majcherek, Robert, Di Liscia, Roudaut, Biard, De Risi, Clucas, Goddu, & myself. Time to show this gem some love! Thanks @degruyterbrill.bsky.social
