Axis Recherches interdisciplinaire en histoire et philosophie des sciences

History of Science, History of Text 2012–2013


The seminar ’History of Science, History of Text’ will mainly explore textual problems related to the ERC Project SAW — "Mathematical Sciences in the Ancient World".
The seminar will address the following issues regarding scientific sources :
  • How textual sources bear witness to the social groups that produced them
  • How textual sources testify to knowledge
  • History of compilations
  • How actors structure their texts and knowledge into parts
  • How textual sources reflect the material environment in which they were produced.


Organizer : Karine Chemla - CNRS, REHSEIS–SPHERE, with Agathe Keller, Christine Proust and group HSHT of ERC SAW.

    Résumé : Dans "La Vita Nuova", Dante commente lui-même des pièces de poésie dont il est l’auteur (en majorité des sonnets) et apporte des éclaircissements sur les circonstances de leur rédaction. Ce faisant, il leur associe des segmentations en parties parfois largement indépendantes des segmentations en vers et strophes imposées par le genre du "sonnet". Quelles questions cette disparité soulève-t-elle ?
