Peter N. Miller is an American historian, and Dean Professor at Bard College.[1] He was a 1998 MacArthur Fellow.[2] Much of his scholarship has centered on the intellectual and cultural history of early modern Europe, including the practices of antiquarianism within wider scholarly erudition; and he is a particular authority on the thought and influence of the French savant, Nicolas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc (1580–1637).
