Galileo's condemnation set off a controversy that has acquired a fascinating life of its own and that continues to this day. This absorbing book is the first to examine the entire span of the Galileo affair from his condemnation to his alleged rehabilitation by the Pope in 1992. Filled with primary sources, many translated into English for the first time, Retrying Galileo will acquaint readers with the historical facts of the trial, its aftermath and repercussions, the rich variety of reflections on it throughout history, and the main issues it raises.Religion and scienceItalyHistory17th centurySciencePhilosophyatomic bomb.bible.brecht.catholic church.catholicism.civic.condemnation.controversy.courtroom drama.descartes.epistemology.fundamentalism.galileo.hermeneutics.historical.impropriety.legal drama.liberalism.napoleonic wars.pascal.paschini affair.peiresc.pope benedict.pope john paul the second.pope.promulgation.rehabilitation.religion and science.religion.scientific authority.scientists.secularism.the galileo affair.theoretical.trial.tricentennial rehabilitation.voltaire.Religion and scienceHistorySciencePhilosophy.520/.92Finocchiaro Maurice A.1942-45151MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814571603321Retrying Galileo227371UNINA
