Objectivity has a history, and it is full of surprises. In Objectivity, Lorraine Daston and Peter Galison chart the emergence of objectivity in the mid-nineteenth-century sciences—and show how the concept differs from its alternatives, truth-to-nature and trained judgment. This is a story of lofty epistemic ideals fused with workaday practices in the making of scientific images.
From the eighteenth through the early twenty-first centuries, the images that reveal the deepest commitments of the empirical sciences—from anatomy to crystallography—are those featured in scientific atlases, the compendia that teach practitioners what is worth looking at and how to look at it. Galison and Daston use atlas images to uncover a hidden history of scientific objectivity and its rivals. Whether an atlas maker idealizes an image to capture the essentials in the name of truth-to-nature or refuses to erase even the most incidental detail in the name of objectivity or highlights patterns in the name of trained judgment is a decision enforced by an ethos as well as by an epistemology.
As Daston and Galison argue, atlases shape the subjects as well as the objects of science. To pursue objectivity—or truth-to-nature or trained judgment—is simultaneously to cultivate a distinctive scientific self wherein knowing and knower converge. Moreover, the very point at which they visibly converge is in the very act of seeing not as a separate individual but as a member of a particular scientific community. Embedded in the atlas image, therefore, are the traces of consequential choices about knowledge, persona, and collective sight. Objectivity is a book addressed to anyone interested in the elusive and crucial notion of objectivity—and in what it means to peer into the world scientifically.
Lorraine Daston is Director at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin, Germany. She is the coauthor of Wonders and the Order of Nature, 1150-1750 and the editor of Things That Talk: Object Lessons from Art and Science (both Zone Books).
Peter Galison is Pellegrino University Professor of the History of Science and of Physics at Harvard University. He is the author of Einstein's Clocks, Poincaré's Maps: Empires of Time, How Experiments End, and Image and Logic: A Material Culture of Microphysics, among other books, and coeditor (with Emily Thompson) of The Architecture of Science (MIT Press, 1999).
hist. of science & intellectual history. 很有帮助,可以对着福柯的《词与物》一起读。
评分objectivity as a historical and innovative epistemic virtue
评分选题真是好。Mechanical Objectivity广为传颂。让我困惑的是通过Mechanical Objectivity这个概念他们把照相技术与印刻技术在本体上等同了,让人不禁要问难道真的是这样吗?论证上并非滴水不漏,推荐两篇文章,可以很好的丰富本书的观点。Joel Snyder的Visualization and Visibility和Peter Geimer的Inadverdent Images. 前者讲the supersensible和Subjectivity, 后者讲Photographic accidents.
评分hist. of science & intellectual history. 很有帮助,可以对着福柯的《词与物》一起读。
评分结构清晰,逻辑通顺,文风简洁。太好看了。从atlas image入手研究认识型,可以说是给研究找到了一个丰富、恰当又便于理解的anchor,truth-to-nature, mechanic objectivity and trained judgment的三种再现模型的论述极其精彩。其理论基础明显由Foucault、Crary和Haraway发展而来,但是比以上三人都…简洁清晰通顺。
