CFP: Transversal: Intl Journal for the Historiography of Science, on Duhem
Dear all,
Greetings!
In homage to Pierre Duhem on the centennial of his death, Transversal: International Journal for the Historiography of Science is pleased to announce a Call for Papers dedicated to the topic “Pierre Duhem’s Philosophy and History of Science”.
All best, on behalf of the TIJHS editorial board,
Mauro Condé
www.historiographyofscience.org
Call for Papers: special issue Pierre Duhem
Deadline for paper submission: Mach 30th, 2017.
Publication of the issue: July, 2017.
We are expecting to receive submissions related to Duhemian History of Science, and the impact it caused in the subsequent historiography. Thus comparative analysis between Duhem and other authors is welcomed, as well as case studies that search to evaluate the conception of scientific development advocated by the French author, exploring its current relevance and intrinsic limits.
Considering the characteristic of Duhem’s unity of thought, articles addressing his philosophy of science in relation to his apologetic project with the philosophy and history of science will be appreciated.
We are also expecting book reviews of Pierre Duhem’s recent translations or reprints, as well as books about the Duhemian work.
In addition to English articles, Transversal: International Journal for the Historiography of Science accepts articles in French, Portuguese and Spanish for evaluation, but after approval for publication the author should send the final version in English.
