An impressive line-up of scholars from across the world explore the significance of Sir Thomas Browne (1605-82), a virtuoso in learning whose many interests form a representative portrait of his age. Doctor, linguist, scientist, and natural historian, Browne was also the writer of some of the most remarkable prose in the English language.
