在提及博雅学科的时候，有多次提到这个词，那么在这里统一翻译为「知识领域」。

    This circle of learning was divided into particular subject matters, each with a proper method or set of methods suitable to its exploration.

    它的知识领域被分成了一些特定的学科，每个学科都有一个或者一套适当的、适合于其探索的方法。

    As a result, the circle of learning was further divided and subdivided,Until all that remained was a patchwork quilt of specializations.

    结果，整个知识领域被进一步划分和细分，直到其变成一个一堆细分领域「拼凑」而成的“碎布床单”。
