Knowledge and Discernment in the Early Modern Arts
In early modern Europe, discernment emerged as a key notion at the intersection of various domains in both learned and artisanal cultures. Often used synonymously with judgment, ingenuity, and taste, discernment defined the ability to perceive and understand the secrets of nature and art, and became explicitly connected with a kind of knowledge available only to experts in the respective fields. With contributions by historians of art and historians of science, and with geographic coverage focusing on the Low Countries and their multiple connections to different parts of the world, this volume reframes recent scholarship on what the editors term 'cultures of knowledge and discernment' in the early modern period.The collection is innovative in its focus on investigating types of knowledge linked to what was then called the 'science' (scientia) of art, to artistic expertise and connoisseurship, and to 'secrets of art and nature.'

It is often referred to as a way of life or a civilization, as it includes aspects such as language, history, and traditions that go beyond traditional religious practices. Additionally, Judaism does not have a central authority or hierarchy like many other religions, which can make it more complex to define solely as a religion.

What is secular Judaism and how does it differ from Judaism as a religion?
Secular Judaism is a cultural and ethnic identity that is rooted in Jewish traditions, history, and values, but does not necessarily adhere to the religious beliefs and practices of traditional Judaism. It emphasizes the cultural, historical, and ethical aspects of Jewish identity, while often rejecting the supernatural and ritualistic elements of the religion. Secular Judaism focuses on the celebration of Jewish heritage, language, literature, and customs, and often places a strong emphasis on social justice and humanistic values. In contrast, Judaism as a religion encompasses a set of beliefs, practices, and rituals that are centered around the worship of a single God, adherence to religious laws and commandments, and the observance of religious holidays and ceremonies.
