Literature and the History of Science

The Spring 2003 German issue of Modern Language Notes will focus on "Literature and the History of Sciences." Contributions should pertain to aspects of what Shapin and Schaffer once termed "literary technology," meaning a facet of scientific work that exists in conjunction with technology proper and the procedures of social communication.' Such aspects include the following: techniques of reproduction and forms of knowledge (e.g., in writing, iconic representation, in technological apparatus and experimentation); communicative operations and truth values (e.g., secret knowledge and the scientific community, diaries and encyclopedias, correspondence and scientific journals); rhetorical devices and conditions of scientific validation (e.g., "visualization," "representation in mathematical or experimental terms," "disposition in experimentation," "observation," "testing").
