“The fundamental premise of this book, also illustrated by the Kircher story, is that the distinction made in modern scholarship between the engagement with the secular (or indeed pagan) past on the one hand, and the Christian past on the other, is mostly spurious, and contemporary antiquarians were not necessarily as binary in their thinking as modern scholars might like; for them, ‘it was all part of the same struggle against the destructive power of time’ (20).”
