Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fair. Ohne Umschlag. Wie schreibt man Wissenschaftstexte? Welche Strategien wenden Autoren an, um ihre Leser zu erreichen? Welche Gattungen von Wissenschaftstexten gibt es? Wie hängt ihre Form mit ihren (möglichen) Funktionen zusammen? Wie entwickeln sich formale Eigenheiten solcher Texte über längere Zeiträume? Um diese Fragen geht es hier anhand griechischer Beispiele aus Medizin, Mathematik und Philosophie, von den Vorsokratikern bis in die Spätantike. Ein Ziel der Arbeit ist die Bestimmung der Textgattungen in diesem Feld. Daneben tritt ein komparatistisches Interesse: Der Autor zieht Vergleiche vor allem mit vorgriechischen Wissenstexten aus dem Nahen Osten, aber auch mit mittelalterlicher und moderner Wissenschaftsliteratur. Perspektive und Methode der Arbeit sind von gegenwärtigen science studies beeinflußt und dienen nicht zuletzt dem Zweck, unsere eigenen Wissenschaftstexte besser zu verstehen.
Hardback. Condition: New. Who is afraid of case literature? In an influential article ("Thinking in Cases", 1996), John Forrester made a case for studying case literature more seriously, exemplifying his points, mostly, with casuistic traditions of law. Unlike in modern literatures, case collections make up a significant portion of ancient literary traditions, such as Mesopotamian, Greek, and Chinese, mostly in medical and forensic contexts. The genre of cases, however, has usually not been studied in its own right by modern scholars. Due to its pervasiveness, case literature lends itself to comparative studies to which this volume intends to make a contribution. While cases often present truly fascinating epistemic puzzles, in addition they offer aesthetically pleasing reading experiences, due to their narrative character. Therefore, the case, understood as a knowledge-transmitting narrative about particulars, allows for both epistemic and aesthetic approaches. This volume presents seven substantial studies of cases and case literature: Topics touched upon are ancient Greek medical, forensic, philosophical and mathematical cases, medical cases from imperial China, and 20th-century American medical case writing. The collection hopes to offer a pilot of what to do with and how to think about cases.

Hardback. Condition: New. Terminologies present various challenges to their inventors and to their users, ranging from epistemic adequacy over linguistic concerns to matters of strategy and group construction. With respect to historical terminologies, however, research has been dominated by linguistic approaches. Breaking new ground, Coming to Terms collects eleven articles that combine an interest in the history of knowledge, mostly ancient Greek, with research on scientific terminologies. They all share an interest in terminological practices, that is, questions such as how and when to coin a term and then what to do with it. Among the fields discussed are astronomy, the Roman surveyors, Aristotelian science, Renaissance and modern biology, contemporary medicine, ancient Chinese philosophy, 20th-century physics, and colonial linguistics. Confronting ancient with modern terminologies, the collection intends to test integrative interpretive approaches. Thus, the collection documents how rich ancient (and modern) terminologies are and shows that they are, beyond lexicography, worth being studied per se.
