| Abstract: | During the 16&17th centuries, English numerical practices underwent a complex transformation with wide-ranging impacts on English society. At the beginning of the early modern period, English men&women believed that God had made humans universally numerate, although numbers were not central to their everyday lives. Over the next two centuries, rising literacy rates&the increasing availability of printed books revolutionized modes of arithmetical practice&education. Ordinary English people began to use numbers&quantification to explain abstract phenomena as diverse as the relativity of time, the probability of chance events,&the constitution of human populations. These changes reflected their participation in broader early modern European cultural&intellectual developments such as the Reformation&the Scientific Revolution |
