The project will continue to investigate the interrelation between natural philosophy, natural science and engineering/technology, paying particular attention to the relation between university and non-university institutions. On the one hand, the complex area of chemical engineering is of interest, and on the other hand the natural science curriculum that was developing in the schools. From the perspective of literary studies the project examines furthermore the connection between text practices and the differentiation of the disciplines around 1800. These analyses will be complemented by a summary which presents Schelling's Natural Philosophy as a theory of science. more >>
