This Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Grant supports a project that focuses on some of the ubiquitous, essential, but overlooked pieces of everyday technologies and objects developed by goldsmiths during the Renaissance. The focus is on how everyday technologies such as screws and other fastening technologies essential for metalworking were developed in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. In doing so, this project aims to better understand everyday technologies in relation to the emergence of modern science, the industrial revolution, and technological advancements. This research hereby illustrates the key role everyday technologies for the advancement of science and technology, and for the development of modern society. Through a combination of the hands-on and close study of museum objects and tools with an in-depth historical analysis of books, paintings, and other images, this project examines the role of goldsmiths in developing and using novel fastening technologies and techniques, and it will explore how such technological developments shed light on larger historical developments, including the rise of precision metalworking, scientific instrument-making, and industrial engineering; these developments were all crucial to the rise of modern science and the industrial revolution. The results of this project will be communicated through conference presentations, open-access publications, exhibitions, and undergraduate teaching.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这项博士学位论文改进赠款支持一个项目，该项目着重于一些无处不在但必不可少但被忽视的日常技术和物品，这些技术和复兴期间Goldsmiths开发的物品。重点是如何在15和16世纪开发为金属加工所必需的日常技术。在此过程中，该项目旨在更好地了解与现代科学，工业革命和技术进步有关的日常技术。此研究在此说明了科学和技术发展以及现代社会发展的关键作用。通过对博物馆对象和工具的动手和仔细研究以及对书籍，绘画和其他图像的深入历史分析的结合，该项目研究了金匠在开发和使用新颖的固定技术和技术中的作用，它将探索这种技术发展如何揭示对更大的历史发展，包括精确的金属工具，以及科学工具的崛起，以及工业界，以及工业界，以及工业化的工业，以及工业界;这些发展对于现代科学和工业革命的兴起至关重要。该项目的结果将通过会议演讲，开放式出版物，展览和本科教学进行传达。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估审查标准通过评估来获得支持的。
