Abstract

Two things about Mendel were "rediscovered" in 1900: His famous paper of 1865 and the story of his life and long neglect. Unlike the paper, which anyone could read in its entirety, the story came out only gradually, and many of its elements were misconstrued by Western European scientists. They pictured him as a pure scientist like themselves and were puzzled by or disinterested in his career as a clergyman, his intellectual community in far-off Moravia, and the importance to him of practical plant breeding. This paper recapitulates the process of mythmaking that followed the rediscovery, then shows how more recent historical research has been able to undo it and, in a sense, "unrediscover" Mendel.

重新发现和重新发现格里高尔-孟德尔:他的生平、时代和思想背景》(Rediscovering and Unrediscovering Gregor Mendel: His Life, Times, and Intellectual Context.
有关孟德尔的两件事在 1900 年被 "重新发现":他在 1865 年发表的著名论文,以及他的生平和长期被忽视的故事。论文的全文任何人都能读到,而孟德尔的故事则不同,它只是逐渐才被披露出来,其中的许多内容都被西欧科学家误解了。他们把他想象成和自己一样的纯粹科学家,对他的牧师生涯、他在遥远的摩拉维亚的知识分子群体以及实用植物育种对他的重要性感到困惑或不感兴趣。本文回顾了孟德尔被重新发现后的神话塑造过程,然后展示了最近的历史研究如何能够消除神话,并在某种意义上 "重新发现 "孟德尔。
