Items related to The Adventures of Sir Thomas Browne in the 21st Century
Sir Thomas Browne (1605-1682) was a physician, philosopher and naturalist, renowned for essays on subjects as diverse as death and the significance of number in nature. Rather than a plain biography of a man who stands at the gates of modern science and yet remains happily in thrall to the ancient world and its mysteries, Aldersley-Williams takes ideas that were important to Browne and remain important now - among them animals, plants, faith and melancholy - and explores them from both 17th- and 21st-century perspectives.
