Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For much of western history, the achievements of classical antiquity were seen as unsurpassable, and works by Latin and Greek authors were viewed as treasure troves of information still useful for contemporary society. By the late seventeenth century, however, the progress of scientific discoveries and the new paradigms of rationalism and empiricism meant the authority of the ancients was called into question. Those working on the classical past and its literaturedebated new ways of defending their relevance for society. The different approaches to classical literature defended in these debates explain how the writings of ancient Greece and Rome could become avital part of eighteenth-century culture and political thinking.Floris Verhaart analyses these eighteenth-century debates about the value of classics, arguing that the Enlightenment, though often seen as an age of reason and modernity, in fact continuously sought inspiration from preceding traditions and ages such as Renaissance humanism and classical antiquity. The volume offers an interesting parallel with the modern day, in which the relationship between 'experts' andthe general public has become the topic of debate and many academics, especially in the humanities, face pressure to explain how their work benefits society at large. Floris Verhaart examines how scholars of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries defended the relevance of classical learning after the emergence of rationalism and empiricism called the authority of the ancients into question.
