What is perception? 👀 🧠 🫀
The English word ‘Perception’—as the ‘process of becoming aware or conscious of a thing’ (OED) —is first recorded in John Trevisa’s (1342–1402) translation of Bartholomaeus Anglicus’s (b. 1272) influential 13th-century encyclopaedia.
Explore this definition, and others, in the Library's new online exhibition and related blogpost: ow.ly/PfZt50UGc51, curated as part of the College's academic theme for 2024-25.
Ten items, ranging over five centuries, are on display with visual pleasure provided by a recent edition of Sir Isaac Newton’s Opticks with its holographic cover.
