Description “This paper will assess the contribution made by the conference held at the Bureau d'Adresse from 1633-1642 to both the contemporary discussion of nature and to the subsequent historiographical debate. I have chosen to concentrate on two particular issues: 1) how nature itself is involved in discussions of scientific issues, and 2) how discussions of nature are applied to culture and to particular social issues.”
