Agassi’s Contribution to the History of Science
Agassi has undertaken the challenge of performing a microanalysis of the works of several scientists, pointing out areas of complexity, raising questions, and criticizing current histories of science. Among the topics he has tackled are Bacon’s philosophy of science, Boyle’s ideology, the rationale of Galileo’s work, Newton’s declared methodology—influential, but misleading—, Faraday’s emancipatory enterprise; and the roots of the quantum revolut…
The Dawn of Scientific Biography
This article endeavors to contribute to a better understanding of the literary contexts of early biographies of scientists written during the Scientific Revolution. To what extent are these biographies influenced by stereotypes that are an inadequate fit for modern history of science? Its claim is that there was, indeed, a literary model for biographies of scientists, and that this model had deep roots in Biblical and classical literature. While …
Zwischen Trient und Vatikanum II
The Council of Trent and the Second Vatican Council are significant both to Lutheranism and Science. The first inaugurated the Counter Reformation and formulated a decree related to biblical hermeneutics (1546) later used as a basis for Galileo's condemnation. The second modernized the Roman Catholic Church and formulated the Pastoral Constitution Gaudium et spes (1964) used by Pope John Paul II as a basis for the reconsideration of the condemnat…
Die frühe Biographie in der Geschichte der Mathematik
In diesem Aufsatz möchte ich frühe Biographien von Mathematikern (im weiteren Sinne) analysieren, die seit der Zeit der wissenschaftlichen Revolution im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert geschrieben wurden. Dabei geht es um die Frage: Kann man aus diesen Biographien ein allgemeines Muster ableiten? Diese Frage ist wichtig, da wir uns heute noch oft blind auf Biographien jener Zeit verlassen, ohne zu bedenken, daß diese nicht für die moderne Geschichte der …
Light on the Galileo Case
In two important speeches Pope John Paul II considered the Galileo case in an attempt to "dispel the mistrust that still opposes, in many minds, a fruitful concord between science and faith." To what extent was his intention accomplished? The two speeches are not consistent with each other with respect to the freedom of thought, inquiry, and expression: the second is a partial but significant retraction of declarations made in the first
