Literature and Science in Europe, 1890-1950" that was hosted by the MDRN research lab at the University of Leuven in February 2022. 2 With the aim of exploring changes in the relation between science and European literature in the modernist period (roughly, the decades between 1890 and 1950), the conference took to literature and science in a broad sensewith science including all forms of officially sanctioned or institutionalized scholarship (thus, also within the humanities), and literature signaling not only a small number of canonized high modernist European authors but all types of creative writing in the period, popular fiction included.Of special interest to participants was whether (and if so, how) the rapid changes to the sciences led to corresponding alterations to (the reflection on) the epistemic status of European literature within the larger economy of knowledge production in the period.This was a key question because the conference figured within the framework of a larger research project, Literary Knowledge, 1890Knowledge, -1950: : Modernisms and the Sciences in Europe.This project
