Since the 16th century at the latest, the continents of the earth have been connected by global trade routes and economic flows; objects circulate across the globe. These are not only goods like metal, spices or weapons, but also small, mobile things like coins, cameos or gemstones: contemporary coins from China, India or Arabia, but also excavated coins from the past of Rome or Greece.

The Global Intellectual History deals with transnational and especially transcultural linkages of bodies of knowledge. Yet, questions about global interconnections and transfers pose a special challenge to researchers: no one can have all the necessary language skills and competences, possessing at the same time expertise for Europe and China, for Africa and South America, or for Islam and Hinduism.
The history of transparency can be summed up as a progression in materials from the mined to the man-made: by the early modern period, rock crystal and alabaster — celebrated in the ancient and medieval worlds for their vitreousness and translucency — could no longer compete with the increasingly reliable clarity of factory-produced flint glass, which would in turn cede its primacy as see-through matter to that of manufactured plastics, made fully synthetic by 1907.
