Yet early modern actors never questioned the possibility of certainty itself; including the notion that truth is out there, universal, and therefore situated at one remove from human manipulations. This book addresses the central question of how early modern actors managed not to succumb to postmodern relativism, amidst uncertainties and blatant disagreements about the nature of God, Man, and the Universe. An international and interdisciplinary team of experts in fields ranging from Astronomy to Business Administration to Theology investigate a number of practices that are central to maintaining and functionalizing the notion of absolute truth, the certainty that could be achieved about it, and of the credibility of a wide plethora of actors in differentiating fields of knowledge. 410 0$aScientiae Studies 606 $aReligion and science 610 $aearly modern Catholicism. 610 $aearly modern history. 610 $ahistory of science. 610 $aintellectual history. 610 $areligious history. 615 0$aReligion and science. 676 $a909.5 702 $aBadea$b Andreea 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811311403321 996 $aMaking truth in early modern Catholicism$93696415 997 $aUNINA
