From Data to Wisdom. Philosophizing Data Visualizations in the Middle Ages and Early Modernity (13th-17th Century)

From Data to Wisdom focuses on data treatment and visualisation according to a comparative and critical perspective. FDTW will be developed in four steps: a) Medieval and Early Modern data visualisations will be collected in a richly and exhaustively; b) data treatment and visualisations will be linked to theories of mind of that time; c) FDTW will consider relationships between data organisation and visualisation, and contemporary theories of mind; d) the analysed data visualisations will be digitally re-actualised.
