SUMMARY:"Engineering the Engineer at the Medici Court in the Age of Galileo"
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is welcome to the next installment of the History of Science\, Medicine\, and Technology Colloquium Series. Cristiano Zanetti will be joining us- he is a Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow at Caltech and a long-term Research Fellow at the Huntington Library. Cristiano will be presenting “Engineering the Engineer at the Medici Court in the Age of Galileo.” \nThis talk explores how two late Renaissance Florentine academies\, connected to the Medici court system\, influenced early modern European scientific and technological development. By analyzing six unpublished manuscripts located in different countries\, and considering the broader Tuscan context\, Zanetti will focus on how Medici-sponsored educational practices shaped not only the professional development of late Renaissance European architect-engineers—particularly in practical mathematics and technological innovation—but also the analytical outlook of influential figures such as Galileo Galilei. \nSee you in the History of Science Room or via Zoom https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/63ji1NIGSxqm_FoP_fCSNg
