Here monsters and automata, barometers and botanical gardens, polite academies and boisterous clubs are all given their due place in the landscape of enlightened Europe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The contributors examine the production of new disciplines through work with instruments and techniques; consider how institutions of public taste and conversation helped provide a common frame for the study of human and nonhuman natures; and explore the regional operations of scientific culture at the geographical fringes of Europe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Implicated in the rise of both fascism and liberal secularism, the moral and political values that shaped the Enlightenment remain controversial today.
