General Scholium Symposium Videos Available

General Scholium Symposium Talk Videos Available Online

The first ever academic conference devoted to Newton’s General Scholium to the Principia was held at the University of King’s College, 24-26 October 2013, to coincide with the tercentenary of its first publication.

All of the talks during the three-day symposium were video-taped professionally in high definition format complete with the discussion periods that followed each session, thus providing a digital legacy of the symposium that will complement the published proceedings due to be published in 2015. Although as in all academic symposia there is an informal quality to each talk, which contain minor imperfections in terms of accidental misstatements and other statements that in the published versions of the talks will be qualified, corrected or polished, these videos provide an authentic view of the symposium for those who were unable to attend.

All the videos are available online here.
