Lewis&#39; opening essay, &#39;New Learning and New Ignorance&#39;, is full of &#39;a-ha!&#39; moments and an utterly brilliant summation of the ideas at work in the transition from the Medieval to the Early Modern. I lost track of the times I noticed that Lewis had succintly decimated long-standing scholarly prejudices about the period in question, and thought of all the scholarly books published in the last 20 years or so that have been praised for saying the same thing. <br /><br />This book is a rich feast and I look forward to each supping.Christopher McNeelynoreply@blogger.com
