Knowledge Transfer and the Early Modern University: Statecraft and Philosophy at the Akademia Zamojska (1595–1627)


Overview

Knowledge Transfer and the Early Modern University focuses on the teaching and cultural activities of the Akademia Zamojska, one of the most renowned universities of Central-Eastern Europe in the Early Modern Age. The Akademia Zamojska played its own part in the debate on the methodology of politics as a discipline, also offering an original contribution to the development of the concept of ‘political prudence’ which was to become so popular in the universities of Central Europe in this period. The institution embodied a largely successful attempt to knit up closer connections between the world of intellectual culture and that of political praxis.

Author Information

Valentina Lepri is Professor of History of Philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences. After obtaining a PhD from the Istituto Nazionale di Studi sul Rinascimento, Florence, she was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Herzog August Bibliothek in Wolfenbüttel and at the Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies - Villa i Tatti, working on the manipulation of Niccolò Machiavelli’s and Francesco Guicciardini’s texts. More recently, she has been awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 programme. Her monographs and articles explore the forms of knowledge production and dissemination in the Early Modern Age, with special reference to late sixteenth-century philosophical and political issues.
