And for good reason. The book presents a drastically revised timeline for ancient civilizations, contracting Greek history by five hundred years and Egypt's by a millennium. Newton and the Origin of Civilization tells the story of how one of the most celebrated figures in the history of mathematics, optics, and mechanics came to apply his unique ways of thinking to problems of history, theology, and mythology, and of how his radical ideas produced an uproar that reverberated in Europe's learned circles throughout the eighteenth century and beyond. Jed Buchwald and Mordechai Feingold reveal the manner in which Newton strove for nearly half a century to rectify universal history by reading ancient texts through the lens of astronomy, and to create a tight theoretical system for interpreting the evolution of civilization on the basis of population dynamics. It was during Newton's earliest years at Cambridge that he developed the core of his singular method for generating and working with trustworthy knowledge, which he applied to his study of the past with the same rigor he brought to his work in physics and mathematics. Drawing extensively on Newton's unpublished papers and a host of other primary sources, Buchwald and Feingold reconcile Isaac Newton the rational scientist with Newton the natural philosopher, alchemist, theologian, and chronologist of ancient history. 606 $aScientists$zEngland$vBiography 606 $aPhilosophers$zEngland$vBiography 606 $aChronology, Historical$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aCivilization, Ancient$xPhilosophy 606 $aPublic opinion$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life$y17th century 610 $aAegyptiaca of Manetho. 610 $aAntonio Conti. 610 $aArthur Bedford. 610 $aBible. 610 $aChronology of Ancient Kingdoms. 610 $aChurch history. 610 $aEtienne Souciet. 610 $aFrance. 610 $aGenesis. 610 $aGreek idolatry. 610 $aHooke?evelius controversy. 610 $aIsaac Newton. 610 $aJean Du Temps. 610 $aJohannes Hevelius. 610 $aJohn Senex. 610 $aMarmor Parium. 610 $aOriginal of Monarchies. 610 $aPersika of Ctesias of Cnidus. 610 $aRobert Hooke. 610 $aRoyal dispensation. 610 $aScripture. 610 $aThe Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms. 610 $aTrinity College. 610 $aTrojan War. 610 $aalchemist. 610 $aalchemy. 610 $aancient civilization. 610 $aancient empires. 610 $aancient history. 610 $aancient prophecies. 610 $aanti-Trinitarianism. 610 $aantiquity. 610 $aastronomical chronology. 610 $aastronomical data. 610 $aastronomical tools. 610 $aastronomy. 610 $acalculation. 610 $acardinal points. 610 $achronological studies. 610 $achronologist. 610 $achronology. 610 $acivilization. 610 $aevolution. 610 $aglobes. 610 $aheresy. 610 $aheretic. 610 $ahistorical knowledge. 610 $ahistorical texts. 610 $aholy orders. 610 $alearning. 610 $amathematics. 610 $ameasurement. 610 $amechanics. 610 $amonarchy. 610 $anatural knowledge. 610 $anatural philosopher. 610 $anineteenth century. 610 $aoptics. 610 $aordination. 610 $aperception. 610 $apopulation dynamics. 610 $apopulation growth. 610 $apopulation. 610 $apublication. 610 $aradical ideas. 610 $ascience. 610 $ascientists. 610 $aseventeenth century. 610 $atheologian. 610 $atheology. 610 $awords. 615 0$aScientists 615 0$aPhilosophers 615 0$aChronology, Historical$xHistory 615 0$aCivilization, Ancient$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPublic opinion$xHistory 676 $a530.092 700 $aBuchwald$b Jed Z$045408 701 $aFeingold$b Mordechai$01494333 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779339303321 996 $aNewton and the origin of civilization$93726148 997 $aUNINA
