The editors, Mordechai Feingold and Elizabethanne Boran, have brought together papers which explore how, when, where and why the Principia was appropriated by readers in Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, England and Ireland. Particular focus is laid on the methods of transmission of Newtonian ideas via university textbooks and popular works written for educated laymen and women. At the same time, challenges to the Newtonian consensus are explored by writers such as Marius Stan and Catherine Abou-Nemeh who examine Cartesian and Leibnizian responses to the Principia . Eighteenth-century attempts to remodel Newton as a heretic are explored by Feingold, while William R. Newman draws attention to vital new sources highlighting the importance of alchemy to Newton. Contributors are: Catherine Abou-Nemeh, Claudia Addabbo, Elizabethanne Boran, Steffen Ducheyne, Moredechai Feingold, Sarah Hutton, Juan Navarro-Loidi, William R. Newman, Luc Peterschmitt, Anna Marie Roos, Marius Stan, and Gerhard Wiesenfeldt. 410 0$aHistory of science and medicine library.$pScientific and learned cultures and their institutions ;$vVolume 19. 606 $aMechanics$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aCelestial mechanics$vEarly works to 1800 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMechanics 615 0$aCelestial mechanics 676 $a531 702 $aBoran$b Elizabethanne 702 $aFeingold$b Mordechai 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910493186303321 996 $aReading Newton in early modern Europe$92443902 997 $aUNINA
