Abstract

How did Louis Pasteur, born in a small town in the Jura—Dole, still little known to the world today, become a man of global recognition and fame? The answer to this question is guided by two pivotal considerations. First is Pasteur's relationship to the representation of reality. This relationship was seeded and steadily developed since his juvenile years through practicing different forms of artistic expression, the most famous of which were subtle pastels portraying Pasteur's parents and neighbors. This genuine attraction towards art gradually became «scientificized» at the same time, when new means of reproducing the reality were invented, such as photography. The second consideration, critical to understand the phenomenon of Pasteur's celebrity, is a strong linkage of his research with nature-based agricultural production. Here again, deeply rooted in his youth and home environment, permeated with the taste of wine and the smell of tanned leather, Pasteur's interests necessitated the processes of communication, not only at the scientific level, but also on a daily life basis, with numerous «social actors» at play (ferments, silkworms etc.). Throughout his work, Pasteur had to provide himself with the means to set up these interdisciplinarity and communication. The final result was the Pasteur Institute, or rather the Pasteur Institutes and the global Pasteur network.

路易-巴斯德,一个汝拉的孩子,一个为世界而生的人
路易-巴斯德出生于汝拉-多勒的一个小镇,至今仍鲜为人知,他是如何成为一个享誉全球的人物的呢?这个问题的答案取决于两个关键因素。首先是巴斯德与现实表象的关系。这种关系从他少年时代就开始了,并通过不同形式的艺术表现实践稳步发展,其中最著名的是描绘巴斯德父母和邻居的细腻粉彩画。与此同时,随着摄影等再现现实的新手段的发明,这种对艺术的真正吸引力逐渐 "科学化"。第二点对于理解巴斯德的名人现象至关重要,那就是他的研究与以自然为基础的农业生产密切相关。同样,巴斯德的兴趣深深植根于他的青年时代和家庭环境,渗透着葡萄酒的味道和鞣革的气味,他的兴趣需要交流的过程,不仅在科学层面,而且在日常生活中,也有许多 "社会角色 "在发挥作用(发酵、养蚕等)。在巴斯德的整个工作过程中,他必须为自己提供建立这些跨学科和交流的手段。最终的成果就是巴斯德研究所,或者说是巴斯德研究所和全球巴斯德网络。
