2 AUTHORITATIVE BOOKS ON GALILEO’S LEGACYCAUSE, EXPERIMENT & SCIENCE A Galilean dialogue incorporating a new English translation of Galileo’s”BODIES THAT STAY ATOP WATER, OR MOVE IN IT” By Stillman DrakeandGALILEO’S GLASSWORKS By Eileen Reeves1981 and 2008 publications in new condition. Description–2 Books on Galileo: (1) Stillman Drake CAUSE, EXPERIMENT AND SCIENCE: A Galilean Dialogue Incorporating a new English translation of Galileo’s “BODIES THAT STAY ATOP WATER OR MOVE IN IT Chicago: University of Chicago, 1981, 6 x 8 in., 237 pp. . Not illustrated— and (2) Eileen Reeves GALILEO’S GLASSWORKS: The Telescope and the Mirror Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2008-, 6 x 8.5 in., 231 pp. . Not illustrated— Condition: Both books hardbound with titles on spine. Original dustjackets. Both in new condition-clean, crisp, tightly bound, and unmarked inside and out. Information: Two highly readable books on Galileo’s accomplishments in physics and in the development of the telescope in astronomy. From the publisher’s blurb for the Stillman Drake book: “The book that ushered in the modern age of experimental science was a best-seller; controversial, it so caught the fancy of intelligent laymen it sold out at once and an expanded second edition was printed that same year-1612. Stillman Drake’s form of reviving what was Galileo’s first book on physics will be found no less controversial by specialists, no less entertaining by the interested lay reader. Surprisingly enough, Drake’s imaginative tour de force presents the first English translation of Bodies That Stay atop Water, or Move in It since the seventeenth century. More remarkable, however, is that Drake has essentially created a Galilean dialogue among three personae Galileo employed in two later dialogues—Sagredo (an intelligent aristocrat), Simplicio (an Aristotelian), and Salviati (who represents the new science and supports Galileo). The whole of Galileo’s Bodies is included, typographically distinguished from this imaginary contemporary discussion. Drake’s dialogue is based on documents of the time and on books written by philosophers against Galileo. Including information about the background debates at Florence in 1611-12, this dialogue makes it clear why professors were alarmed at an approach to science that was open to everyone and why they began to appeal to theologians for support. By the end of this lively exchange among friends we know a good deal about hydrostatics (Galileo’s subject) and about the context in which Galileo made his discoveries known. But Drake’s dialogue also makes it possible for us to feel the intense curiosity of Sagredo, the persistence and commitment of Salviati, and the doubts and fears of Simplicio, who sees the first cracks in the foundations of his intellectual and moral world.” From the publsher’s blurb for the book by Eileen Reeves: “The Dutch telescope and the Italian scientist Galileo have long enjoyed a durable connection in the popular mind—so much so that it seems this simple glass instrument transformed a rather modest middle-aged scholar into the bold icon of the Copernican Revolution. And vet the extraordinary speed with which the telescope changed the course of Galileo’s life and early modern astronomy obscures the astronomer’s own curiously delayed encounter with the instrument. This book examines the lapse between the telescope’s creation in The Hague in i 6o8 and Galileo’s first presumed acquaintance with news of it ten months later. In an inquiry into scientific and cultural history, Eileen Reeves explores two fundamental questions of intellectual accountability: What did Galileo know of the invention of the telescope, and when did he know it? The record suggests that Galileo, like several of his peers, initially misunderstood the basic design of the telescope. In seeking to explain the gap between the emergence of the telescope and the alleged date of the astronomer’s acquaintance with it, Reeves explores how and why information about the telescope was transmitted, suppressed, or misconstrued. Her revised version of events, rejecting the usual explanations of silence and idleness, is a revealing account of the role that misprision, error, and preconception play in the advancement of science. Along the way, Reeves offers a revised chronology of Galileo’s life during a critical period and, more generally, shows how documents typically outside the scope of early modern natural philosophy—medieval romances, travel literature, and idle speculations—relate to two crucial events in the history of science.” About the Author: Stillman Drake is emeritus professor of the history of science at the University of Toronto. He is the author of numerous translations and scholarly works on Galileo, including Galileo at Work. Eileen Reeves 1s a professor of the comparative literature at Princeton University.
