Acknowledgements

Curating ‘Science Without Borders’ would not have been possible without all the generous, dedicated help we received along the way. We want to acknowledge all those who helped us create an exhibition that reframes the traditional Eurocentric conception of the Scientific Revolution.

Ivano Dal Prete

Professor Dal Prete directed us to many objects in the collection and lent his thoughts on their organization. His engaging lectures and thoughtful syllabus curation were instrumentral to the shaping of this project and to the knowledge we gained as students of this course.

Emily Glider

Emily Glider first encouraged us to pursue a creative final project, and her active engagement with manuscripts in the Beinecke inspired the selection of several of our sources. We are deeply appreciative of her time and effort towards guiding our learning this semester.

Paola Bertucci

Professor Bertucci co–curated “Crafting Worldviews,” an exhibit at the Yale University Art Gallery that served as a great source of inspiration. Many of the compelling works she selected are on display in “Science Without Borders.”

Roberta Dougherty

Roberta Dougherty is the curator for Yale’s Near East Collection, and she was kind enough to pull the Persian astrolabes we displayed in this exhibit for us last week and to translate some of the Arabic inscriptions.
