The Lead in Science However ready the well inform- ed person may be to admit that Italy lead the way for Europe to follow in the fine arts, in elas- sical learning, in poetry and ot- her literature, in diplomaey, statecraft, circumnavigation and cosmography, yet the statement that she also distinctly led in physical and biological science would scarcely be so readily as. sented to. But we should think of the It- aly of the Medici in their zenith, when there was no united Italy and no British Empire Both are recent, the one a synthesis, the other a revolution. The Italy of the Renaissance was indeed geographically many States, but their courts vied with another in the passionate love of culture and what there was, and in extending pat- ronage to men of letters and to men of science. At this time England was geographically what some people yet believe her to be, part of an island kingdom to the south of Scotland. At this time there was more magnifi- cence in a single Italian town such as Venice, Florence, Lucca than the whole of England. Fng-| lish science had not been born,} was barely coneeived. | Roger Baeon was indeed an} Englishman,, but he was of the| thirteenth century, a prophetic | one science voice calling unheeded but not unpersecuted in a desert of theo- logical bigotry and _ intellectual! vacuity.
