dc.descriptionLecuture delivered as part of a special symposium on "Science and Religion in the Middle Ages," and was given on December 8, 1990 in Science Center 226; commentators on the paper were A.I. Sabra (Harvard University), David C. Lindberg (University of Wisconsin, Madison), and John E. Murdoch (Harvard University).
dc.description.abstractIn contrast to a paper I did a few years ago on "Science and Theology in the Middle Ages," which focused solely on the Latin Middle Ages and almost exclusively on the period from 1200 to 1500, I shall expand my vistas considerably today and place the relations between Christianity and science in a broad societal context ranging from the beginnings of Christianity to the end of the Middle Ages. Although my topic is primarily on the relations between science and religion in Western Europe, I shall also briefly describe the same interrelationships in Islam, with the hope of better understanding Christian developments.
