This paper argues that there took place in the eighteenth century a specific, distinctive and essential phase in the emergence of modern science, a phase which can be characterised as “the Great Instauration” in that it witnessed the large-scale realisation of Francis Bacon’s earlier vision—albeit not, for the most part, through the specific means which Bacon had proposed. That claim is exemplified in three fields—the “physico-mathematical sciences,” chemistry and electricity—each of which yielded dramatic and permanent advances in knowledge; and an attempt is then made to render those advances intelligible in terms of specific social and technical themes. The paper proposes that the eighteenth-century Great Instauration arose from the development of an international natural-philosophical community, made possible by new institutions and especially by new publication media. And it suggests that what made this social development epistemologically fruitful was an inherently progressive process which had been anticipated by Bacon, namely what Sophie Weeks has called his “cybernetic” account of knowledge-making—the refinement of both questions and techniques in the light of Nature’s response to investigation.
本文认为,在18世纪,现代科学出现了一个特殊的、独特的、重要的阶段,这个阶段可以被描述为“大复兴”,因为它见证了弗朗西斯·培根早期愿景的大规模实现——尽管在很大程度上,不是通过培根提出的具体手段实现的。这种说法在三个领域得到了例证——“物理数学科学”、化学和电学——每一个领域都在知识方面取得了巨大而持久的进步;然后尝试用特定的社会和技术主题来解释这些进步。本文认为,18世纪的大复兴源于一个国际自然哲学共同体的发展,这是由新的机构,特别是新的出版媒介所促成的。它表明,使这种社会发展在认识论上富有成果的是培根所预料到的一个内在的进步过程,也就是索菲·威克斯(Sophie Weeks)所说的他对知识创造的“控制论”描述——根据自然对调查的反应,对问题和技术进行提炼。

Power and Knowledge in Eighteenth-Century Collecting 18世纪收藏中的权力与知识

Both The Ferment of Knowledge and Geoffrey Cantor’s essay review defined the “eighteenth-century problem” in terms of the lack of a totalizing vision. Forty years on, the problem has shifted to the appropriation of eighteenth-century science by both the political left and the right. As historians grapple with the legacies of slavery and colonialism, an emerging theme is material culture and its “entanglements.” The subject of this essay, collections and collecting, is central to this new historiography. Collections included antiq­uities, natural history, anatomy, and ethnographic objects. My focus will be on human skeletal collections. Historians who have considered skeletal collec­tions have focused mainly on the later eighteenth century and on developing concepts of race and geological time. But their significance is much broader. Collecting entailed entanglements both of cultures and of genres. Such collections could be medical, geological, aesthetic, taxonomic, or all or none of these. Case studies of collections of human bones, skeletons, and skulls reveal a different eighteenth century from that which the historians of 1980 envisaged, and bring questions of value and values to the centre of our reading of history.
《知识的发酵》和Geoffrey Cantor的文章评论都将“18世纪的问题”定义为缺乏整体视野。40年过去了,问题已经转移到政治左派和右派对18世纪科学的挪用上。当历史学家努力研究奴隶制和殖民主义的遗留问题时,一个新兴的主题是物质文化及其“纠缠”。这篇文章的主题,收藏和收集,是这个新的史学的中心。收藏品包括古物、自然史、解剖学和人种学物品。我的重点是人类骨骼收藏。研究骨骼收藏的历史学家主要关注18世纪后期,以及种族和地质时代概念的发展。但它们的意义要广泛得多。收藏涉及文化和流派的纠缠。这些收藏可以是医学的、地质的、美学的、分类学的,也可以是全部的,也可以不是。对人类骨骼、骨骼和头骨收藏的个案研究揭示了一个不同于1980年历史学家所设想的18世纪,并将价值和价值问题置于我们阅读历史的中心。

In light of research which, since the publication of Rousseau and Porter’s Ferment of Knowledge, has demonstrated the continued centrality of magic and the occult to what may be termed “scientific knowledge” in the early modern period, this essay argues that one domain of practice where these concerns remained paramount well into the eighteenth century is the consumption of recipes. Whether exchanged between individuals or collected in print format, these mobile informational media relied on forms of proof under­pinned by personal experience and collective accreditation, with an inductive and empirical focus that was distinct from Cartesian deduction. Because the culture of recipe exchange was so widespread, encompassing scholars, savants and lay readers, secrets offered ways to challenge strict mechanistic interpretations in favour of a view of the natural world as informed by unseen active powers, particularly where the virtues of materials such as magnets or medicinal simples were concerned. Using private library catalogues of book owners, a commonplace book and a scientific periodical produced in France during the decades after 1700, the article traces the way secrets culture continued to foster an epistemological space in which mechanical explanations evidently fell short of accounting for quotidian experience.
根据研究,自卢梭和波特的《知识的发酵》出版以来,已经证明了魔法和神秘学在早期现代时期可能被称为“科学知识”的持续中心地位,本文认为,这些关注在18世纪仍然至关重要的一个实践领域是食谱的消费。无论是在个人之间交换还是以印刷形式收集,这些移动信息媒体都依赖于以个人经验和集体认可为基础的证明形式,其归纳和经验重点与笛卡尔演绎不同。因为配方交流的文化是如此广泛,包括学者,学者和外行读者,秘密提供了挑战严格的机械解释的方法,支持自然界的观点,认为它是由看不见的积极力量告知的,特别是在磁铁或药物等材料的优点方面。利用私人图书馆图书所有者的目录,一本普通书籍和一份科学期刊,这篇文章追溯了秘密文化如何继续培育一个认识论空间,在这个空间里,机械的解释显然无法解释日常经验。

Science and the Enlightenment Revisited 科学与启蒙运动重访

At nearly forty, Science and the Enlightenment (Cambridge, 1985) by Thomas L. Hankins is seriously dated but still widely used, broadly reliable for what it covers and frustrating for its omissions, richly informative in its contents and somewhat opaque in its intellectual coordinates. For better or for worse, with its compact two hundred pages of text and remarkably well-chosen images, it remains the best textbook on the period, even though recent research has greatly enriched, problematized, and subverted older assumptions. This essay situates Hankins’s textbook within our changing understanding of the sciences in the Enlightenment, providing a critical evaluation of its achievements, problems, and intellectual agenda. I focus on periodization and the role Isaac Newton’s main works, Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica (1687) and Opticks (1704)—both with much expanded later editions—play in Hankins’s narrative with respect to their intellectual and methodological agenda. While offering some thoughts on what mid-1980s readers may have reasonably expected from a textbook on the Enlightenment, I also include brief reflections on how the field has changed in recent times and some comments on what a new textbook may look like, forty years later.
托马斯·l·汉金斯(Thomas L. Hankins)的《科学与启蒙》(Science and the Enlightenment,剑桥,1985)出版近40年了,虽然已经严重过时,但仍被广泛使用。该书所涵盖的内容大体可靠,但其遗漏之处令人沮丧。无论是好是坏,它紧凑的200页文字和精心挑选的图片,仍然是关于那个时期最好的教科书,尽管最近的研究大大丰富了旧的假设,提出了问题,并颠覆了旧的假设。这篇文章将汉金斯的教科书置于我们对启蒙运动时期科学不断变化的理解之中,对其成就、问题和学术议程进行了批判性的评价。我关注的是周期化,以及艾萨克·牛顿的主要著作《自然哲学的数学原理》(1687年)和《光学》(1704年)在汉金斯的叙述中所扮演的角色,这两部著作都是后来扩充的版本。在提供一些关于20世纪80年代中期读者可能对启蒙运动教科书的合理期望的想法的同时,我也简要地反思了近年来该领域的变化,并对四十年后的新教科书可能是什么样子的一些评论。

Natural Knowledge at the Threshold of the Enlightenment 启蒙时期的自然知识

Italian contributions to the Enlightenment are most often discussed in terms of the slow acceptance of Newtonian science (Ferrone) or the obstacles to change within a quaint museum of antiquated states (Venturi). This case study of an important naturalist attempts to identify the paths to change between tradition and revolt, in fields of natural knowledge that are sometimes less regarded in the context of an international movement of intellectual emancipation. In spite of an early attachment to some form of physico‑theology, Antonio Vallisneri, professor of medicine at the University of Padua from 1700 to his death in 1730, made a number of innovative contributions to biological description and natural history which placed him among the forerunners of Georges Buffon. Heir to the empirical approach enshrined in the work of Marcello Malpighi, for the most part he attempted to avoid much of the philosophical and theological speculation raging between deists and atheists. However, the implications of his work, including activity as a science communicator to wider audiences, pointed to a reassessment of the importance of accurate natural knowledge in the ongoing reform of public instruction and cultural institutions then occurring in the major cities of Italy and abroad, an important plank in the Enlightenment program in the years leading up to the French Encyclopédie.
意大利对启蒙运动的贡献通常被讨论为对牛顿科学的缓慢接受(费龙)或在古旧国家的古色古香的博物馆中改变的障碍(文丘里)。这是一个重要的自然主义者的案例研究,试图在国际知识解放运动的背景下,在自然知识领域中,确定传统与反抗之间的变化路径。尽管早期对某种形式的物理神学有依恋,帕多瓦大学的医学教授Antonio Vallisneri从1700年到1730年去世,在生物描述和自然历史方面做出了许多创新的贡献,使他成为乔治·布冯的先驱之一。作为马尔皮吉(Marcello Malpighi)著作中奉为圭物的实证方法的继承者,他在很大程度上试图避免自然神论者和无神论者之间激烈的哲学和神学猜测。然而,他的工作的影响,包括作为一个科学传播者的活动,指向了在意大利和国外的主要城市正在进行的公共教育和文化机构改革中准确的自然知识的重要性的重新评估,这是导致法国百科全书的启蒙运动的重要组成部分。

The Forensic Tradition in Milan’s Civic Mortality Registers 米兰公民死亡登记中的法医传统

From the late fourteenth to the seventeenth century, many Italian cities and towns responded to recurrent plague by keeping municipal death registers. Different in content and character from the most celebrated form of early modern mortality records, the London Bills of Mortality, Italian authorities named, rather than counted, persons who died. This municipal practice illustrates the invention of secular death investigation systems in an era of recurring plague. Milan’s uniquely detailed civic death registers, 1452 to 1525, display the underlying forensic character of such record-keeping, rather than the public health context in which such records have long been understood. Diagnosing the cause and manner of death, the fundamental objective of forensic medical inquiries, exposed epistemological uncertainties that academic medicine largely avoided for the entirety of the early modern era. How could one be certain that a death was caused by a particular affliction? Our death investigation practices are now far more sophisticated, but in the current, tenacious SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, we still struggle to measure and record the human costs of crisis mortality.
从十四世纪末到十七世纪,许多意大利城镇通过保存市政死亡登记册来应对反复发生的瘟疫。与现代早期最著名的死亡记录形式《伦敦死亡法案》在内容和特征上不同,意大利当局对死亡人员进行了命名,而不是统计。这种市政实践说明了在瘟疫反复发生的时代,世俗死亡调查系统的发明。米兰1452年至1525年独特详细的公民死亡登记册显示了这种记录保存的潜在法医特征,而不是人们长期以来对这种记录的理解所依据的公共卫生背景。诊断死因和死亡方式是法医学研究的基本目标,暴露了学术医学在整个现代早期基本上避免的认识论不确定性。一个人怎么能确定死亡是由一种特殊的痛苦引起的呢?我们的死亡调查实践现在要复杂得多,但在当前顽强的严重急性呼吸系统综合征冠状病毒2型疫情中,我们仍然难以衡量和记录危机死亡率的人力成本。

Deontic Variation in the ‘Advice’ for the Cure of the Plague by the Royal College of Physicians of London (1665 vs 1636 editions) 伦敦皇家内科医师学院关于治疗鼠疫的“建议”中的笛神变体(1665年vs 1636年版本)

The ‘Advice’ drawn up by the College of Physicians for the prevention and cure of the plague was first published in 1578. It was attached to the Orders, a list of directions drawn up by the Privy Council to prevent or limit the spread of the disease. Like the Orders to which it was appended, the ‘Advice’ went through several reprints until 1630, when it had to be rewritten. The 1630 edition of the ‘Advice’ no longer confined itself to medical prescriptions, but included advice about medical provision in the city, the movement of goods and people, and referred to the political measures taken in foreign cities. In this revised, extended version, the ‘Advice’ was reprinted in 1636 and in 1665, when it finally appeared without the preceding Orders. This paper focuses on the pragma-linguistic changes displayed by the 1665 edition as compared with the 1636 edition of the ‘Advice’ in terms of mood and modality (Palmer 1986) and argues that the more mitigated expression of deontic modality and the preference for assertive acts over directive ones (Searle 1985) characterizing the later edition reflect the new editorial and historical context in which the text was produced.
1578年,由内科医师学会起草的预防和治疗鼠疫的“建议”首次出版。该命令附有枢密院为防止或限制该疾病的传播而拟订的指示清单。就像它所附加的命令一样,“忠告”经过多次重印,直到1630年才不得不重写。1630年版的“建议”不再局限于医疗处方,而是包括关于城市医疗供应,货物和人员流动的建议,并提及外国城市采取的政治措施。在这个修订的扩展版本中,“建议”在1636年和1665年被重印,当时它最终没有了前面的命令。本文关注1665年版与1636年版《建议》在语气和情态方面的语用语言学变化(Palmer 1986),并认为后一版对道义情态的表达更为缓和,对果断行为的偏好超过了指导性行为(Searle 1985),这反映了文本产生的新编辑和历史背景。

There is an important tension within Francis Bacon’s discussions of sense-perception. On the one hand, he sometimes seems to regard sense-percep­tion as a certain and unquestionable source of information about the world. On the other hand, he refers to errors, faults, desertions, and deceptions of the senses; indeed, he aims to offer a method which can remedy these errors. Thus, Bacon may appear conflicted about whether sense-perception provides reliable information about the world. But, I argue, this appearance of a conflict is itself illusory. Bacon offers us a coherent and compelling account of sense-perception that acknowledges not only its weaknesses but also its strengths. I explain his account by exploring its roots in the atomist and natural magic traditions, drawing special attention to the similarity between Bacon’s response to skepticism and earlier atomist responses to skepticism. One of the key features of the view is the analogy between sense organs and scientific instruments, both of which infallibly register information based on causal principles.
在弗朗西斯·培根关于感官知觉的讨论中有一个重要的矛盾。一方面,他有时似乎认为感官知觉是关于世界的一种确定的、不容置疑的信息来源。另一方面,他指的是错误、过失、遗弃和感官的欺骗;事实上,他的目的是提供一种可以纠正这些错误的方法。因此,对于感官知觉是否提供了关于世界的可靠信息,培根可能显得很矛盾。但是,我认为,这种冲突的表象本身就是一种幻觉。培根为我们提供了一个连贯而令人信服的关于感官知觉的描述,既承认它的弱点,也承认它的优势。我通过探索原子论和自然魔法传统的根源来解释他的叙述,特别注意培根对怀疑论的回应与早期原子论者对怀疑论的回应之间的相似性。这种观点的一个关键特征是感觉器官和科学仪器之间的类比,它们都是基于因果原理准确无误地记录信息。
