This article explores George Davis's editing of the Chemical Trades Journal (CTJ) between 1887 and 1906, a period during which he was also working as a consultant chemist and consultant chemical engineer. Davis had worked from 1870 in various sectors of the chemical industry before becoming a sub-inspector in the Alkali Inspectorate between 1878 and 1884. It was during this period that the British chemical industry was facing severe economic pressure and to remain competitive was having to adapt to less wasteful and more efficient production. Drawing on this wide industrial experience, Davis developed a framework for chemical engineering with the broad aim of making chemical manufacture as economic as the latest science and technology would allow. Several important issues are raised by Davis's editorship of the weekly CTJ alongside his extensive consultancy work and other responsibilities: Davis's motivation given the likely impact on his consultancy work; the community the CTJ hoped to serve; competitive periodicals addressing the same market niche; the degree of focus on his chemical engineering framework; the changing content of the CTJ; and Davis's role as editor over a period of nearly twenty years.

这篇文章探讨了乔治·戴维斯在1887年至1906年间编辑《化学贸易杂志》(CTJ)的经历,在此期间,他还担任顾问化学家和顾问化学工程师。戴维斯从1870年开始在化学工业的各个部门工作,然后在1878年至1884年期间成为碱监察局的副检查员。正是在这一时期,英国化学工业面临着严重的经济压力,为了保持竞争力,必须适应减少浪费和提高效率的生产。利用这一广泛的工业经验,戴维斯开发了一个化学工程框架,其广泛的目标是使化学制造尽可能经济最新的科学和技术所允许的。戴维斯在《CTJ》周刊担任编辑期间,除了从事广泛的咨询工作和其他职责外,还提出了几个重要问题:戴维斯的动机对他的咨询工作可能产生的影响;CTJ希望服务的社区;针对相同市场利基的竞争性期刊;他对化工框架的关注程度;CTJ含量的变化;以及戴维斯近二十年来担任编辑的经历。

women who dipped into natural philosophy. Findlen also probes Erculiani’s decision to publish her book in Krakow, discussing the intellectual connections between Padua and Poland and suggesting that Erculiani might have been trying to avoid running afoul of the Inquisition (unsuccessfully, if so). Letters on Natural Philosophy provides an exciting addition to early modern women’s medico-scientific works available to an English-speaking audience. Hannah Marcus’s skilful and highly readable translations make the difficult Italian and Latin texts accessible to English readers, and the book should be suitable for university students of all levels. While the introductory materials rightly situate Erculiani in her Italian context, her case also provokes questions about gender and female authorship in early modern Europe more broadly. For example, there are many parallels with the story of Oliva Sabuco, the daughter of a Spanish physician under whose name two philosophical works on medicine appeared in 1587 and who also ran into trouble with the Inquisition. This confluence raises complex questions about women’s eagerness to make an intellectual contribution in early modern Europe and the power of religious authorities to silence them. The sixteenth-century fate of Letters on Natural Philosophy is hardly uplifting. Investigated by the Inquisition, Erculiani was forced to defend her book against suspicions of heresy. Although she does not appear to have been formally charged, she also did not publish again. Her book was never placed on the Catholic Church’s Index of Condemned Books, but, as Caranci points out, this was likely because it was not viewed as influential enough to pose a threat. Nevertheless, the fact that Erculiani felt empowered to publish her Letters demonstrates the great energy among educated Italian women at the end of the Renaissance. Women writers who followed Erculiani, such as Moderata Fonte and Lucrezia Manella, echoed her views on women’s intellect with more success. Although Erculiani was prevented from making a broader impact with her book, her work deserves to be known, and the combined efforts of Carinci, Findlen, and Marcus bring her story to modern English readers in magnificent detail.
钻研自然哲学的女人。芬德伦还探讨了埃尔库利亚尼决定在克拉科夫出版她的书,讨论了帕多瓦和波兰之间的知识联系,并暗示埃尔库利亚尼可能是在试图避免与宗教裁判所发生冲突(如果是这样的话,没有成功)。《自然哲学书信》为讲英语的读者提供了早期现代女性医学科学作品的一个令人兴奋的补充。汉娜·马库斯的翻译技巧娴熟,可读性强,使英语读者能够理解晦涩的意大利语和拉丁语文本,这本书应该适合各个层次的大学生。虽然介绍材料正确地将埃古利亚尼置于她的意大利背景中,但她的案例也引发了更广泛的关于早期现代欧洲性别和女性作者的问题。例如,奥莉瓦·萨布科(Oliva Sabuco)的故事有很多相似之处,她是一位西班牙医生的女儿,1587年以她的名义出版了两本关于医学的哲学著作,她也遇到了宗教裁判所的麻烦。这种融合提出了一些复杂的问题:在近代早期的欧洲,女性渴望做出智力贡献,而宗教当局却有能力让她们噤声。《自然哲学文论》在16世纪的命运很难令人振奋。在宗教裁判所的调查下,埃古利亚尼被迫为她的书辩护,反对异端的怀疑。虽然她似乎没有受到正式指控,但她也没有再发表任何文章。她的书从未被列入天主教会的“被谴责书籍索引”,但正如卡兰西指出的那样,这可能是因为她的书被认为没有足够的影响力来构成威胁。尽管如此,埃尔库利亚尼感到有权出版她的书信,这一事实表明,文艺复兴末期,受过教育的意大利女性充满了巨大的活力。紧随其后的女作家,如Moderata Fonte和Lucrezia Manella,更成功地呼应了她对女性智力的看法。尽管埃尔库利亚尼的书无法产生更广泛的影响,但她的作品值得被人所知,卡林奇、芬德伦和马库斯的共同努力,将她的故事以宏伟的细节呈现给了现代英语读者。

A Cultural History of Chemistry in the Nineteenth Century covers the period from 1815 to 1914 and the birth of modern chemistry. The elaboration of atomic theory - and new ideas of periodicity, structure, bonding, and equilibrium - emerged in tandem with new instruments and practices. The chemical industry expanded exponentially, fuelled by an increasing demand for steel, aluminium, dyestuffs, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods. And the chemical laboratory became established in its two distinct modern settings of the university and industry. At the turn of the century, the discovery of radioactivity took hold of the public imagination, drawing chemistry closer to physics, even as it threatened to undermine the whole concept of atomism. The 6 volume set of the Cultural History of Chemistry presents the first comprehensive history from the Bronze Age to today, covering all forms and aspects of chemistry and its ever-changing social context. The themes covered in each volume are theory and concepts; practice and experiment; laboratories and technology; culture and science; society and environment; trade and industry; learning and institutions; art and representation.
《19世纪化学文化史》涵盖了1815年至1914年以及现代化学的诞生。原子理论的阐述——以及周期性、结构、键合和平衡的新思想——与新的工具和实践同时出现。由于对钢铁、铝、染料、药品和消费品的需求不断增加,化学工业呈指数级增长。化学实验室建立在大学和工业这两个截然不同的现代环境中。在世纪之交,放射性的发现占据了公众的想象,使化学更接近物理学,尽管它有可能破坏原子论的整个概念。《化学文化史》共6卷,呈现了从青铜时代到今天的第一部综合历史,涵盖了化学的所有形式和方面及其不断变化的社会背景。每卷所涵盖的主题都是理论和概念;实践与实验;实验室和技术;文化与科学;社会与环境;贸易和工业;学习和机构;艺术和表现。

A Cultural History of Chemistry in the Modern Age covers the period from 1914 to the present. The impact of chemistry and the chemical industry on science, war, society, and the economy has made this era the “Chemical Age”. Having prospered in the West, chemical science spread across the globe and slowly became more diversified in terms of its ethnic and gendered mix. After flourishing for sixty years, the chemical industry was impacted by the Oil Crisis of the 1970s and became almost invisible in the West. While the industry has clearly delivered many benefits to society—such as new materials and better drugs—it has been excoriated by critics for its impact on the environment. The 6 volume set of the Cultural History of Chemistry presents the first comprehensive history from the Bronze Age to today, covering all forms and aspects of chemistry and its ever-changing social context. The themes covered in each volume are theory and concepts; practice and experiment; laboratories and technology; culture and science; society and environment; trade and industry; learning and institutions; art and representation.
《现代化学文化史》涵盖了从1914年到现在的这段时间。化学和化学工业对科学、战争、社会和经济的影响使这个时代成为“化学时代”。在西方繁荣之后,化学科学传播到全球,慢慢地在种族和性别混合方面变得更加多样化。在繁荣了60年之后,化学工业受到了20世纪70年代石油危机的影响,在西方几乎被忽视了。虽然制药行业显然为社会带来了许多好处——比如新材料和更好的药物——但它却因其对环境的影响而受到批评。6卷集的化学文化史呈现了从青铜时代到今天的第一个全面的历史,涵盖了化学的所有形式和方面及其不断变化的社会背景。每卷涵盖的主题是理论和概念;实践与实验;实验室和技术;文化与科学;社会与环境;贸易和工业;学习和制度;艺术和表现。

A Cultural History of Chemistry in the Early Modern Age covers the period from 1500 to 1700, tracing chemical debates and practices within their cultural, social, and political contexts. This era in the history of chemistry was notable for natural philosophy, scientific discovery, and experimental method, and also as the high point of European alchemy – exemplified by the immensely popular writings of Paracelsus. Developments in the chemistry of metallurgy, medicine, distillation, and the applied arts encouraged attention to materials and techniques, linking theoretical speculation with practical know-how. Chemistry emerged as an academic discipline – supported by educational texts and based in classroom and laboratory instruction – and claimed a public place. The 6 volume set of the Cultural History of Chemistry presents the first comprehensive history from the Bronze Age to today, covering all forms and aspects of chemistry and its ever-changing social context. The themes covered in each volume are theory and concepts; practice and experiment; laboratories and technology; culture and science; society and environment; trade and industry; learning and institutions; art and representation.
《近代早期化学文化史》涵盖了1500年至1700年期间,追溯了其文化、社会和政治背景下的化学辩论和实践。化学史上的这个时代以自然哲学、科学发现和实验方法而闻名,也是欧洲炼金术的巅峰——帕拉塞尔苏斯的著作就是例证。冶金、医学、蒸馏和应用艺术化学的发展鼓励人们关注材料和技术,将理论推测与实践知识联系起来。化学作为一门学术学科出现,得到了教育文本的支持,并以课堂和实验室教学为基础,并占据了公共地位。《化学文化史》共6卷,呈现了从青铜时代到今天的第一部综合历史,涵盖了化学的所有形式和方面及其不断变化的社会背景。每卷所涵盖的主题都是理论和概念;实践与实验;实验室和技术;文化与科学;社会与环境;贸易和工业;学习和机构;艺术和表现。

A Cultural History of Chemistry in the Middle Ages covers the period from 600 to 1500 in European and Islamic cultures. Arabic theories and terminology for the science of matter were introduced into the West and became known as ‘alchemy’. Based in experiment and innovation – and bound up in networks of mining, manufacturing, trade and commerce – alchemical practice largely focused on the production of new substances through various processes. At the same time, alchemy was deeply theoretical, exploring the development of mineralogy, the perfection of corruptible matter, the prolongation of life, and the cure of diseases.The 6 volume set of the Cultural History of Chemistry presents the first comprehensive history from the Bronze Age to today, covering all forms and aspects of chemistry and its ever-changing social context. The themes covered in each volume are theory and concepts; practice and experiment; laboratories and technology; culture and science; society and environment; trade and industry; learning and institutions; art and representation.
《中世纪化学文化史》涵盖了从600年到1500年的欧洲和伊斯兰文化。阿拉伯的物质科学理论和术语被引入西方,并被称为“炼金术”。炼金术以实验和创新为基础,与采矿、制造业、贸易和商业网络紧密相连,主要侧重于通过各种工艺生产新物质。与此同时,炼金术具有很强的理论性,探索矿物学的发展、可腐蚀物质的完善、延长寿命和治疗疾病。6卷集的化学文化史呈现了从青铜时代到今天的第一个全面的历史,涵盖了化学的所有形式和方面及其不断变化的社会背景。每卷涵盖的主题是理论和概念;实践与实验;实验室和技术;文化与科学;社会与环境;贸易和工业;学习和制度;艺术和表现。
