Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 470(2167), Article 40025. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2014.0025In his treatise on light, written about 1225, Robert Grosseteste describes a cosmological model in which the universe is created in a big-bang-like explosion and subsequent condensation. He postulates that the fundamental coupling of light and matter... Read More about A medieval multiverse?: Mathematical modelling of the thirteenth century universe of Robert Grosseteste.
A three-dimensional color space from the 13th century (2012)
Journal Article
Smithson, H. E., Dinkova-Bruun, G., Gasper, G. E., Huxtable, M., McLeish, T. C., & Panti, C. (2012). A three-dimensional color space from the 13th century. Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 29(2), A346-A352. https://doi.org/10.1364/josaa.29.00a346We present a new commentary on Robert Grosseteste’s De colore, a short treatise that dates from the early 13th century, in which Grosseteste constructs a linguistic combinatorial account of color. In contrast to other commentaries (e.g., Kuehni & Sch... Read More about A three-dimensional color space from the 13th century.
