When Historiography Met Epistemology by Stefano Bordoni
This study examines how historical writing about science and philosophical analysis of knowledge intertwined in the nineteenth century, showing how each shaped the other’s categories and methods. Drawing on case studies from mechanics, thermodynamics, physiology, and psychology, it reconstructs evolving notions of method, objectivity, and theory change while challenging simple rupture narratives and the dominance of a single tradition. The result is a nuanced framework that integrates historical reconstruction with epistemological inquiry to better understand how scientific knowledge was made and justified.
