The 1965 conference at the University of California, Los Angeles, commemorating the four-hundredth anniversary of Galileo Galilei's birth, brought together leading scholars to exchange ideas on his multifaceted legacy. Sponsored by the university's Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, the Department of Italian, and the Italian Quarterly, the event explored diverse aspects of Galileo's work, including his engagement with literature (discussed by Professor Delia Terza), his integration of theoretical studies and technology (Professor White), his religious convictions (Professor Spini), and the intellectual and philosophical contexts shaping his thought (Professor Moody). Professor Westfall further examined the concept of force in Galileo's physics, delving into his scientific contributions. This collection of papers reflects Galileo's wide-ranging interests and underscores his enduring influence across science, philosophy, literature, and culture.
