Reviews
Disharmony of the Spheres exemplifies a genuinely new kind of early modern cultural studies. Each of Nelson's readings displays the same 'technical mastery' of the protocols of the several disciplines across which the book works--art history, history of science and technology, institutional history, early modern philology, and diplomacy too--that she so admires in Holbein's work. --Jane O. Newman, author of Benjamin's Library: Modernity, Nation, and the Baroque

A true delight. This is one of the most engaging monographs in art history (in fact truly interdisciplinary, but with a strong foundation in art history) I have had the pleasure to read in a long time. -Rebecca Zorach, author of The Passionate Triangle Disharmony of the Spheres exemplifies a genuinely new kind of early modern cultural studies.
