GEORGE SARTON (1884-1956) was a Belgian chemist and historian who is considered the founder of the discipline of history of science. Sarton's ultimate goal was to achieve an integrated philosophy of science that provided a connection between the sciences and the humanities, which he referred to as "the new humanism". Sarton intended to complete an exhaustive nine-volume history of science; By the time of his death, he had completed only the first three volumes. Sarton had been inspired for his project by his study of Leonardo da Vinci, but he had not reached this period in history before dying. PROVENANCE: HAROLD JOHN GRIMM (1901–1983) was an academic, historian, and writer and an expert on the Reformation. He was chairman of the history department at Ohio State and Indiana universities. During his academic career Grimm collected about 200 volumes of books and pamphlets from the Reformation period. After his death, the collection was donated to Ohio State University Libraries and form the core of the Harold J. Grimm Reformation Collection, which now includes over 550 volumes. The Harold J. Grimm Prize, awarded by the Sixteenth Century Society and Conference for the best article on the Reformation published during the previous year, is named after him.
