Long before modern science, Europeans learned to see their own time as an age of invention rather than decline.
The comparison between visible work and invisible labor really stuck with me. The way we picture progress shapes how we judge it.
Really appreciated this piece, thank you.
This is very cool. Now we just need Stripe Press to publish the 21st century Nova Reperta
I agree!
The greatest invention of the Renaissance was ignorance; the realization that there were questions that couldn’t be answered by the Bible or the Ancients.
Eye rolling cliches indeed is what I was thinking while reading the description of the newer one, "humanity sucks, and should be ashamed"
Inspiring. Too bad that the attitude towards progress has regressed.
Lovely piece, thank you.
