Description:
Through the unique perspective of the British Museum, founded in 1753 as both product and inspiration of this great period of discovery and learning, the authors suggest a different way of seeing the Enlightenment - rather than viewing it purely from a modern perspective, the reader is invited to experience this fascinating period through eighteenth-century eyes.
