Book Details


First Sentence

"In a cogent essay critical of the ways in which "rationality" has become a mantra for dividing the pre-modern from the modern, Brian Stock has shown how the desire to push the boundaries of modernity either back to the Middle Ages, a modernizing tendency, or forward to later times, a medievalizing tendency, leaves untouched the multiple and syncopated linkages between rationality and its technologies-scientific instrumentation, textuality and subjectivity."
