摘要
科学书评是18世纪后期德国期刊的一个重要流派。大多数匿名评论者将自己视为科学界的声音,评判新出版物的质量是否有益。然而,正如这篇论文所表明的,一些评论家渴望的不仅仅是评判书籍的内容。克里斯蒂安·海因里希·普法夫(Christian Heinrich Pfaff)、亚历山大·冯·洪堡(Alexander von Humboldt)和约翰·威廉·里特(Johann Wilhelm Ritter。
Constructing the persona of the Naturwissenschaftler – German book reviews on galvanism
Scientific book reviews were an important genre in late-18thcentury German journals. The mostly anonymous reviewers regarded themselves as voices of the scientific community, judging the quality of new publications for its benefit.
However, as this paper shows, some reviewers aspired to more than judging the books’ content. The reviewers of Christian Heinrich Pfaff ’s, Alexander von Humboldt’s, and Johann Wilhelm Ritter’s monographs on galvanism, published between 1796 and 1805, used the language of epistemic virtues and vices to present their readership with their ideal scientific persona meant to support the development of the empirical sciences.
