SUMMARY:Communicating Natural Knowledge and Medicine. Early Modern Journals
  of Learned Academies
DESCRIPTION:When, in the second half of the 17th century, three national ac
 ademies were founded in Europe – the Holy Roman Empire’s Academia naturae c
 uriosorum (Leopoldina) (1652) in Schweinfurt, the English Royal Society (16
 60/63) in London, and the French Académie des sciences in Paris (1666) – st
 yles and techniques of scientific communication changed rapidly. Whereas be
 fore researchers had been communicating their experiences, inventions, and 
 theories through the publication of books, individual visits, or by exchang
 e of learned letters and manuscripts, now other forms of communication mani
 fested themselves: Organized scientific symposia if possible, but mostly sc
 ientific journals.\n\nAgainst this background, the workshop planned is to f
 ocus the emergence of scientific journals in the second half of the 17th ce
 ntury in a comparative approach. Light will be shed on the journals’ differ
 ent functions, on their diverging types of texts and illustrations, on thei
 r role as carriers of old and new concepts and theories in the field of med
 icine and natural knowledge, and of course on their entrepreneurs, learned 
 men, observers, collectors, academic travelers, editors, readers.\n\nFurthe
 r Information and Registration\n\nThe symposium is open for everyone intere
 sted and free of charge. A registration is not necessary.\n\nKontakt\n\nPro
