Hellenistic Science at Court

Hellenistic Science at Court' considers how novel scientific knowledge emerged in a multicultural premodern world of monarchy without universities or peer-reviewed journals. Examining science at the courts of the pharaohs Ptolemy III and IV (reigned successively 246-205/4 BCE), it argues that the development of new scientific knowledge drew on the personae of courtiers and the aesthetic discourse of Greco-Egyptian court society.
