RIZZI Sandra Stewart Holyoak: This begins our third session with Professor Peter Klein on June 6, 2011, in New Brunswick, New Jersey, with Professor Paul Clemens and Sandra Stewart Holyoak. Again, gentlemen, thank you. Last time, we talked about your time in graduate school. Peter D. Klein: Right. Well, we talked a little bit about grad school, because I told you about Rulon [S.] Wells, [III], and I told you about my dissertation committee, but I didn't tell you very much about the dissertation. Whether that matters or not, who knows? We talked a little bit about Kingman Brewster and the wonderful time we had in trying to get [Richard J.] Bernstein tenure, losing, which helped me to acquire a healthy skepticism about academic administrations, let's put it that way, and how faculty members can have such high principles, but exercise such low practice. [laughter] I'm not saying all faculty members, or most, but a bunch that I came in contact with at that place. Now, of course, it turned out that they were right. He shouldn't have gotten tenure. [laughter] As a teacher, he deserved it, no question about that, but the problem, of course--a problem, not the--a problem with giving tenure to a person who is primarily a teacher is that that person may not keep up in the field.

  • On the Production and Early Reception of the Vienna Circle's
    Writing a Revolution: On the Production and Early Reception of the Vienna Circle’s Manifesto Thomas Uebel University of Manchester Considerable unclarity exists in the literature concerning the origin and au- thorship of Wissenschaftliche Weltauffassung. Der Wiener Kreis, the Vienna Circle’s manifesto of 1929 and on the extent of and the reasons for the mixed reception it received in the Circle itself. This paper reconsiders these matters on the light of so far insufªciently consulted documents. The year 1929 is of particular signiªcance in the history of the Vienna Circle. It saw what for ªve years had been an informal academic discus- sion group “step out” and assume a notable public proªle as a revolution- ary philosophical movement with a distinctive socio-historical and cul- tural grounding.1 As matters are commonly remembered nowadays, this proªle was attained by the publication of a short programmatic brochure, Wissenschaftliche Weltauffassung. Der Wiener Kreis (“The Scientiªc Concep- tion of the World. The Vienna Circle”), which ªrst bestowed upon this group its now common name. But the publication of this brochure was but one of several moves initiated from within this group and designed to procure an audience for its new philosophy. Another of these moves was the organization of the First Conference for the Epistemology of the Exact Sciences, where this brochure was ªrst presented and distributed. It also was no coincidence that 1929 was the year in which the group succeeded in retaining its nominal leader, Moritz Schlick, despite his having received an attractive call to a chair in Bonn: the brochure was dedicated to him personally “as token of gratitude and joy at his remaining in Vienna” (Anon.
