Revolutionary science in the age of the guillotine

source: The Royal Society    2016年11月8日
Discover how the revolutionary movement in Paris and London helped shape the scientific landscape during the 18th century.
Throughout the French Revolution, the most eminent scientists in France were battling a political crisis, social unrest and fear of execution. Despite this turmoil, Paris (the City of Light) was widely considered one of the richest scientific landscapes in the world.
Across the English Channel, London was facing its own upheaval. As the idea of anarchy was spreading, notable figures such as Joseph Banks and Charles Blagden were busy building their own scientific legacies.
Join Ian Blatchford, Director of the Science Museum and Professor Steve Jones, author of No Need for Geniuses as they discuss how pioneering inventions, guillotines and revolutionary thinking in these two cities changed the future of science.
In partnership with the Science Museum.

The Inaugural London Journal Lecture
London at War and Peace: Crisis and Reckoning, 1702-1951
Professor Jerry White
(Birkbeck, University of London)
Jerry White explores the impact of war and its aftermath on London and the Londoner. Ranging widely over nearly three centuries of metropolitan history, White detects patterns of wartime repression and peacetime rebellion, of urban development stemmed then unleashed, of contradictory consequences for the London economy, of gains and losses for the metropolitan poor and of the terrors and limitation of a xenophobic metropolis. While all of London's wars were historically contingent, the experience and consequences of war and its legacy would repay special study by the capital's historians.
Professor Jerry White teaches modern London history at Birkbeck, University of London. His first book, Rothschild Buildings: Life in an East End Tenement Block 1887-1920, won the Jewish Chronicle Non-Fiction Book Prize for 1980; his London in the First World War, wasSpear's Social History of the Year for 2014. His Mansions of Misery. A Biography of the Marshalsea Debtors' Prison, is published by The Bodley Head in October 2016.
