In that sense the role of the primary source is supplementary and confined to the study of specific instances of the concepts, designs, and methodology of Indian knowledge production. Tracing through a variety of thoughts, the birth of science, the making of new science, the book ends up with consciousness as a problem of particle physics. Roger Penrose, dismissing the matter–mind dichotomy, declares that laws of new science about the quantum gravity seem to govern consciousness too.","PeriodicalId":275202,"journal":{"name":"History and Theory of Knowledge Production","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124553897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examining the archaeology and ethno-archaeology of remains of the civilizations in the valleys of the Indus and Yellow rivers, we try and capture the earliest knowledge in crafts production technology such as architecture, metallurgy, lapidary, and ceramics. Orally transmitted Vedic knowledge, eschatology, metaphysics, grammar, phonetics, astronomy, the post-Vedic systems of thought, Ayurvedic knowledge, architecture, nature of metallurgical texts, the Indian and Chinese textual traditions, and epistemological traces constitute other contents of the chapter. This chapter underscores the early India’s methodologically distinct aphoristic structure of stating truth as astute observations generalized as self-validated principles, the logic of which corresponds to that of mathematical equations or formulas. It discusses the history of mathematical astronomy. A distinct epistemic shift is explicit in India’s astronomy of fourteenth to sixteenth centuries CE. Mādhava of Sangamagrāma (c. 1340–1425 CE) in Kerala marks the beginnings of this shift through his path-breaking mathematical advances in conceptualizing infinite series. The chapter ends with a concise discussion of the Chinese history of knowledge systems across the material cultures","PeriodicalId":275202,"journal":{"name":"History and Theory of Knowledge Production","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131404671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How Newton’s theories of objects, position, relations, dynamic, and velocity went into the making of a new field of knowledge called mechanics in Natural Philosophy, explaining the fundamental laws of the motion of bodies under the action of forces, became the hegemonic model for the centuries that succeeded, is the core of the chapter. It shows how the Newtonian inductive theorization of absolute space as independent of objects and of the universal time revolutionized the entire domain of knowledge and became the epochal model.","PeriodicalId":275202,"journal":{"name":"History and Theory of Knowledge Production","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117291518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is followed by a discussion of the Arab Muslim engagement with the classical Greek and Hellenic knowledge by way of translation, interpretation, and academic extension. Drawing the broad contours of the Arab epistemology, the section shows how the Arab scholars retained, improved upon, and carried forward the Greek scholarship in different fields, enabling Europe to trigger the Renaissance movement. It includes a review in recognition of the medieval Catholic scholars’ contribution to the growth of new knowledge in mathematics, astronomy, mechanics, and philosophy, which also had a role in the intellectual preparation for the onset of Renaissance in Europe.","PeriodicalId":275202,"journal":{"name":"History and Theory of Knowledge Production","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117316248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
