This is the home page for the NEER Research Cluster entitled Notebooks and Note-taking in Early Modern Europe.
The function of this Research Cluster is to pursue three interrelated strands of inquiry:
1. Note-taking as a cultural and intellectual practice in the Early Modern period, especially its connection with assumptions about individual and externalised memory;
2. The use of notebooks of various kinds in different fields, especially in medicine and natural history;
3. Reflection on manuscript notebooks and related material in history of science and ideas.
The original application for funding for this Research Cluster is available as an attachment to this page.
