Summary:
A specialist in early modern antiquarianism, Miller (history, Bard Graduate Center, New York City) looks at Nicolas Fabri de Peiresc's (1580-1637) history of medieval Provence as an epitome of antiquarian effort, and uses it to explore the practice generally and how that practice signals a transformation in epistemology across European letters at the time. He discusses Peiresc and antiquarianism, antiquarianism as an archival science, researching the History of Provence, and his medieval Mediterranean in the history of historiography.
