Språk: engelska/ English. --- Olaus Rudbeck (1630-1702) was on the cutting edge of the careful investigation of nature which characterized the seventeenth-century scientific revolution. He also devoted a great deal of his energies to creating an elaborate history of the Swedish people that sacrificed scientific objectivity to establish the origin of Greco-Roman culture in ancient Norse precedents. Did this bizarre study in mistaken chronology and erroneous philology represent merely an aberration in the scientific world of the late seventeenth century?
