Review
Virginia Quarterly Review : A fascinating study of the effects that the theories of the notorious Viennese physician, Franz Mesmer, had upon social and political thinkers during the two decades preceding the French Revolution. This book is a skillful exploration of the various psychological factors that made mesmerism a widely accepted attitude[The book] will interest literary scholars as well as historians since mesmerism is examined as a phenomenon that bequeathed an attitude that found its expression in the writings of the preromantics and the romantics.
Isis : This is an excellent book and one of singular interest both to the historian of science and to the French historian.
Science : [An] excellent and exemplary study in the history of ideas. Based on a thorough study of manuscripts, pamphlets, and journals, learned in its broad setting and persuasive in its internal logic, supported by richly relevant quotations and reproductions of contemporary engravings, Mesmerism and the End of the Enlightenment in France provides a commendable model for those interested in the way 'true' and 'false' ideas interact and broadly influence behavior.

评分 评分当科学与理性成为一种信仰的时候,启蒙运动就走向了终结。17、18世纪是科学革命的世纪,科学成为人们的信仰,人们用科学解释一切,即使是牛顿也在用科学寻找第一推动力,这也为伪科学的盛行提供了土壤,催眠术作为一种可以医治百病的科学医疗方式在法国出现,最终引发各个等级...
评分在英国雅痞摄影师马丁•帕尔的画册《奢侈》中,上流社会的时尚屡遭奚落,他偏执地聚焦在不堪的地方,如丝绸晚礼服滚圆小腹处的一团深色污渍,如摺边蕾丝贵妇帽阔檐上的一粒绿头蝇,在这恶作剧式的偷拍照背后,掩不住的,是对时尚的不屑。在衣香鬓影的酒会晚宴上,马丁大叔是...
