The professors of the first Hungarian college of farming in Western Europe 266 Authors 277 Preface The Hungarian and German authors of this book have examined the processes that took place in 18th century philosophy, aesthetics and other fields of study – especially physical anthropology. These processes led to a significant reevaluation of man’s place and role in the living world and history, as had been understood in previ- ous periods. The term, the‘ image of man’, given in the title of the volume refers to both the beginnings of philosophical anthropology and physical anthropology, principally those that became objecti- fied in arguments concerning race. The examination focuses on the reciprocal influences on the changes in the images of man from the interval between the late Enlightenment to the Romantic period. In part those moments when philosophy exerted an effect on the empirical base of the parameters of the evolving disciplines of study, that is to say, it influenced the methodology of observation and doc- umentation; and in part those processes through which the results of certain fields of study served as argumentational backdrop for the interpretations of philosophy. Most of the studies comprising the four thematic units focus on continental Europe, and more specifi- cally German phenomena, and their reception in Central Europe, primarily the Kingdom of Hungary. The works in the first chapter dissect the problems concerning the unity of humankind, from the point of view of how the geographic 10 Preface discoveries of the 18th century made an impact on the debates con- cerning race and in the field of philosophy. László Kontler follows the evolution of the perspective of natural history from the mid 17th century to the end of the 19th and the changes in humanity as a re- sult of naturalisation. He highlights how the early modern perspec- tive evolved as a natural law approach to the institution of slavery. Staffan Müller-Wille’s study on the characteristics of the definition of race – primarily consciousness – by Linné (Linnaeus), calls at- tention to why this typology cannot be based simply on exterior physical features. The study of Wolfdietrich Schmied-Kowarzik presents how two opposing developmental histories – the causal genetic and the linneanus autochthon – clashed in the debate on race between Kant and Forster. Furthermore it puts forth a criti- cism of Kant’s concept of teleology, as present in the previously mentioned debate, based on the concept of humanity put forth by Herder and Forster. The second thematic unit presents the concentrated appearance of typology problems in scientific practice, that is to say the evo- lution of physical anthropology. The comprehensive study of Uwe Hoßfeld and Jörg Pittelkow highlights the significance of the uni- versity of Göttingen, while Thomas Junker presents the work and later influence of Blumenbach’s conceptual and measurement me- thodology which significantly contributed to the solidification of the borders of physical anthropology. Lichtenberg added to the debate concerning on body and soul through his reflections on geo- graphic discoveries, as Vera Békés’ article points out. The works in the third chapter look at the images of man in Ger- man idealism and their precedents in the works of Herder. Endre Hárs analyses the discussions of the differences between man and animal – with the participation of Rousseau and Lord Momboddo – the turning point of which was the appearance of Moscati’s 1770 work. Dezső Gurka’s study analyses the understanding of man by Carus, who adapted the natural philosophical ideas of Schelling, the Preface 11 definitive contribution of the surgeon-gynecologist and philosopher being the first appearance of the concept of the unconscious (Un- bewußt). Klaus Vieweg examines the role of education (Bildung) in Hegel’s image of man and points out how the philosopher based his concept of freedom on aesthetic phases. The articles in the fourth chapter emphasise the fact that the reception of the aforementioned processes in Central and Eastern Europe occurred only partially or in a diluted form. The uniqueness of the history of reception in the Kingdom of Hungary and the area of the Principality of Transylvania belonging to the Hungar- ian crown, but separate in terms of public administration from the expulsion of the Turks until 1848 was how the large number of stu- dents peregrinating to Göttingen and Jena lead to the two German universities having a greater role in the Hungarian adaptation and instrumentalisation of post-Kantian philosophy and certain scien- tific fields. The study of Ildikó Sz. Kristóf – in addition to the Jesuit and protestant precursors of Hungarian ethnography – calls atten- tion to the previously mentioned phenomenon, especially in rela- tion to protestant authors. The article by Piroska Balogh evaluates the systematic experimentation of Lajos Schedius and thus empha- sises the exemplary role of Göttingen. Due to the delayed arrival of these phases, the philosophical influences arrived in an accumulated way, and the study by Tibor Bodnár-Király presents this based on a reinterpretation of Flögel from a Wolffian perspective written in Hungarian. The effects appear on how various disciplines, mainly economic and political, achieve innovative governmental and high aristocratic aims. The study by Lilla Krász illustrates this phenom- enon in medicine, while the study by György Kurucz interprets this from the perspective of the agricultural sciences. This short preface is only able to mention the thematic and con- ceptual overlays found within the numerous detailed and multifac- eted analysis included in this volume. The conceptual precursor to this academic publication was a conference in 2013, and the re- 12 Preface search programme entitled The Circulation of Knowledge in Hungary, 1770–1830, financed by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office. The research programme widened the number of participants with the addition of authors and six German research- ers were asked to participate whose internationally recognised aca- demic work revolves around these issues. This volume is the second part of a series published in German and English,1 the first part of which was issued in 2015, entitled Deutsche und ungarische Mineralogen in Jena. Wissenstransfer an der Wende des 18–19. Jahrhunderts im Rahmen der „Societät für die gesam- mte Mineralogie zu Jena”.2 The third volume is to be expected in the autumn of 2020, under the title The periods of the history of the earth and the ages of mankind. Paleontology in philosophical and cultural con- texts in the 18–19th centuries.

THE CONCEPT OF MANKIND IN THE AGE OF GEOGRAPHICAL EXPLORATIONS IN THE 18–19TH CENTURIES Inventing ‘humanity’ Early-modern perspectives* LÁSZLÓ KONTLER This essay addresses a crucial chapter in the development of the modern concept of humanity (mankind, humanité, Menschheit) in European culture. Unlike other contributions to this volume, it is not an empirical study based on primary research, rather an attempt to sketch an analytical framework for approaching and understand- ing a broad array of specific historical topics and phenomena within the parameters of an encompassing theme.

  • Typographic Alignment
    Typographic Alignment In typesetting and page layout, alignment or range, is the setting of text flow or image placement relative to a page, column (measure), table cell or tab. The type alignment setting is sometimes referred to as text alignment, text justification or type justification. Basic variations There are four basic typographic alignments: ▪ Flush left—the text is aligned along the left margin or gutter, also known as left-aligned or ragged right; ▪ Flush right—the text is aligned along the right margin or gutter, also known as right-aligned or ragged left; ▪ Justified—text is aligned along the left margin, and letter- and word-spacing is adjusted so that the text falls flush with both margins, also known as fully justified or full justification; ▪ Centered—text is aligned to neither the left nor right margin; there is an even gap on each side of each line. Note that alignment does not change the direction in which text is read; however text direction may determine the most commonly used alignment for that script. Flush left In English and most European languages where words are read left-to-right, text is often aligned ‘flush left’, meaning that the text of a paragraph is aligned on the left-hand side with the right- hand side ragged. This is the default style of text alignment on the World Wide Web for left-to-right text. Quotations are often indented. Flush right In other languages that read text right-to-left, such as Arabic and Hebrew, text is commonly aligned ‘flush right’. Additionally, flush- right alignment is used to set off special text in English, such as attributions to authors of quotes printed in books and magazines, and is often used when formatting tables of data.

  • Winter Cities and Mood Disorder Akkerman
    TRAMES, 2014, 18(68/63), 1, 19–37 WINTER-CITIES AND MOOD DISORDER: OBSERVATIONS FROM EUROPEAN CITY-FORM AT THE END OF LITTLE ICE AGE Abraham Akkerman University of Saskatchewan Abstract. The rise of modernity in Europe, from the close of the Renaissance to the Second Industrial Revolution, had spanned the period of the Little Ice Age, and was manifest by intensifying urbanization. Europeans in cities during cold days of the late LIA were able to seek warm shelter much easier than their forerunners in earlier times or their contemporaries in colonial America. But at higher latitudes during autumn and winter, daytime shelter deprived people of sunlight. The likely outcome, depression, had been a prominent trait among the founders of modern science and philosophy, many of whom lived in northern Europe. A rich source of perceptually stimulating spatial contrast, historic European city-form, compact and conducive to street walking, had been a visceral catalyst to intellectual exploration, while at the same time it had provided also a partial remedy to some of the mood disorder. Such observation is relevant to contemporary winter-cities. Keywords: Little Ice Age, city-form, mind and the environment, existentialism, winter- cities DOI: 10.3176/tr.2014.1.02 1. Introduction In “The morphology of landscape” (1925) Carl O. Sauer had introduced the notion of cultural landscape as the imposition of culture upon nature. Defined by the shared myths, beliefs and behavioral standards, Sauer’s cultural landscape is manifest in human intervention in natural landscape. Technology, as one of the more important aspects of culture, has been changing our lived space, primarily through considerations of expediency related to the human body, while bodily experiences have been changing accordingly and, in turn, have often driven advances of technological change.

  • An Unpublished Letter of Ignaz Von Born to Johann Beckmann from 1775
    ANNALES HISTORICO-NATURALES MUSEI NATIONALIS HUNGARICI Volume 105 Budapest, 2013 pp. 379–393 A sample of 18th century networking: an unpublished letter of Ignaz von Born to Johann Beckmann from 1775 G. Papp Hungarian Natural History Museum, Department of Mineralogy and Petrology, H-1083 Budapest, Ludovika tér 2, Hungary. Email: [email protected] Abstract – A hitherto unpublished letter of Ignaz von Born (1742–1791), dated November 26, 1775, is found in the Collection of Letters of the Manuscript Collection of the National Széchényi Library, Budapest. Th e recipient of the letter was undoubtedly Johann Beckmann (1739–1811), professor of the Göttingen University. Th is valuable document gives an insight into the relatively less known period of life of Born that he spent in retirement at Altzedlitsch / Staré Sedliště, his es- tate in Bohemia. Th e letter discloses some details about his everyday life, correspondence, visitors, publication and research activity, travels, etc. With 1 fi gure. Key words – biography, enlightenment, Göttingen University, Ignaz von Born, Johann Beckmann, scientifi c correspondence INTRODUCTION Ignaz von Born (1742–1791) was a prominent person of science, fi rst of all mining and earth science, of the late 18th century Habsburg Empire. In addition to papers and separate works on mining, metallurgy and mineralogy (in broad sense), he published a major book in malacology as well. Beyond his publication activi- ties, he took an important part in the organisation of the scientifi c life of Bohemia (1772–1776), then Austria (from 1776 till his death). As Flügel (2009) concludes, Born “was the centre of the mineralogical network of the [Habsburg] Monarchy”.

Scott Ranger www.scottranger.com, [email protected] Production Notes This is very much a work under construction. My notes are composed in Adobe InDesign which allows incredible precision of all the elements of page layout. My choice of typefaces is very specific. Each must include a complete set of glyphs and extended characters. For my etymologies the font must include an easily recognized Greek and the occasional Cyrillic and Hebrew. All must be legible and easily read at 10 points. Adobe Garamond Premier Pro is my specifically chosen text typeface. I find this Robert Slimbach 1989 revision of a typeface created by Claude Garamond (c. 1480–1561) to be at once fresh and classic. Long recognized as one of the more legible typefaces, I find it very easy on the eye at the 10 point size used here. I simply adore the open bowls of the lower case letters and find the very small counters of my preferred two- storied “a” and the “e” against its very open bowl elegant. Garamond’s ascenders and decenders are especially long and help define the lower case letters with instant recognition.

  • Natural Philosophy and Natural Science Around 1800
    Dietrich von Engelhardt Natural Philosophy and Natural Science around 1800 1. Introduction The development of science since the Renaissance can be characterized as an expansion of the knowledge of phenomena, as increasing specialization, as a growing of empiricism with many techno-practical consequences. It can also be considered as an institutionalization of science and the dominance of research, as emancipation from theology and philosophy, as separation from the humanities or a loss of historico-theoretical interests within the natural sciences. The terms philosophy or philosophical – especially in connection with natural science and medicine – had up to the eighteenth century different meanings: metaphysical foundation of nature and natural science, theory and methodology of scientific research, causal explanation of natural phenomena and natural processes, or total, general and systematic description or representation of a certain area of nature or a specific discipline. 2. Enlightenment The dialogue between science and philosophy depended on the internal developments of science and philosophy and their changing relationships. The eighteenth century was a period of fundamental innovation – in the field of physics, chemistry, geology and biology as well as in the relationship between science and philosophy.1 In the chemistry of that period, the concept of the elements and their combination was transformed by the controversy between phlogistic and antiphlogistic schools of thought. By 1800, the new oxygen theory (A.L. Lavoisier 1789) had established itself, whereas the doctrine of forces and processes was being developed mainly by 1 See BÖHM (1964); CROSLAND (1962); ENGELHARDT VON (1979); HOOYKAAS (1966); PARTINGTON (1961-70); RITTERBUSH (1964); ROGER (1963; 1971); SCHIMANK (1973); STRÖKER (1967); VERRA (1992).

  • Science and the Scientific Disciplines
    OUP UNCORRECTED PROOF – FIRSTPROOFS, Tue Jul 07 2015, NEWGEN Chapter 35 Science and the Scientific Disciplines Benjamin Dawson Introduction European Romanticism coincided with a period of profound reorganization in the sci- ences, and in particular with the genesis of the modern scientific discipline. In contrast to earlier and other orders of discourse in which disciplines operated largely as archives, that is, as repositories of knowledge, by the early nineteenth century the scientific disci- pline had begun to play an internal, essential, and active role in epistemic production.1 Processes of specialization, professionalization, and role differentiation in the sciences were central to this transition, and were supported by the establishment of the earli- est research universities (in Göttingen, Leipzig, and elsewhere).2 Likewise important were changes in the form of scientific communication. Notably, as supplements to the general organs of the scientific institutions established in the seventeenth century, such as the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society and the proceedings of the Paris Académie, the late eighteenth century saw a proliferation of specialist scientific journals which served both to accelerate the generation of empirical observations and to regu- late these communications, governing this great new wealth of fact.3 Beginning around 1 On the development of the scientific discipline as the primary unit of internal differentiation and structure formation in the social system of science, see Rudolf Stichweh, Zur Entstehung des modernen Systems wissenschaftlicher Disziplinen: Physik in Deutschland, 1740–1890 (Frankfurt/ Main: Suhrkamp, 1984). 2 ‘Scientific factories wissenschaftliche( Fabriken)’ was how one commentator described these new institutions.
