Show PostLesson #1: YOU are their special little bed. That, and a cardboard box.
Show PostGaukroger (pp 135-139) discusses the "combination of free thought and censorship in Paris in the 1920s", mentioning that in 1624 "three anti-Aristotelian speakers [...] were exiled on pain of death from Paris", but no actual executions for being anti-Aristotelian (primarily pro-Copernican).
Show PostThanks! I must check Gaukroger's book, too, to see if he mentions anything about it.
