Homage to Enlightenment scholar Margaret Jacob

Historian Margaret C. Jacob is one of those names that didn't make it onto my starter bibliography about the Enlightenment, but as evidenced from this January's meeting of the American Historical Association in Chicago, her work has helped revolutionize scholars' understanding of the Enlightenment and its spread during the early 18th century.


Check out some of her titles on the library shelves here at FAU, or go to her online C.V. or to Historical Abstracts (one of FAU's most powerful electronic databases) to search for articles that might be compelling reading for your research project.
