Subject: Linked Pasts 9 Call for Activities (Remote)
Linked Pasts 9, Dec 5–14, 2023 (remote)
Call for activities:
The annual Linked Pasts symposium—which has previously been held at KCL,
Madrid, Stanford, Mainz, Bordeaux, University of London and British
Library, Ghent, and York—brings together scholars, heritage professionals
and other practitioners with an interest in Linked Open Data as applied to
the study of the past. Panels and working groups at Linked Pasts are more
goal-oriented than a conventional academic conference, and activities and
agendas are often proposed, developed and revised by all participants at
the event itself. Activities may be new or continuations of work from
previous symposia or other venues.
The Linked Pasts Symposium is a formal partner of the Pelagios Network
<https://pelagios.org/partners/>.
The ninth Linked Pasts symposium (LP9) will be a fully virtual and
asynchronous affair, better to engage with international participants and
different time zones, and reduce the need for financially and
environmentally expensive travel.
If you would like to organise a collaborative activity (workshop, training,
discussion, editing or documentation sprint, annual report on special
interest group, etc.) please fill in the form at
<*https://forms.gle/9XDBodiLEePq6BMz9
<https://forms.gle/9XDBodiLEePq6BMz9>*> by November 5, 2023.

Subject: ESHS Confluences series: Jutta Schickore
Dear colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to the next instalment of
the ESHS online talk series, Confluences: reflections on the
inter-relations between disciplines. We think of the
Confluences project as an opportunity to further build
the ESHS community across space (and time), while also addressing wider
audiences. ESHS talks in these series feature scholars addressing topics
that cut across disciplinary boundaries and combine different forms of
knowledge (textual, visual, mathematical, experimental, etc.).
Our next speaker is Jutta Schickore
<https://hpsc.indiana.edu/about/faculty/schickore-jutta.html>(Indiana) with
a talk entitled “Hypothetical thinking around 1800". The talk will take
place on ZOOM
<https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83396389676?pwd=ak5mOVB1bnE2NVo5UjJWQ3JVMlpldz09>*,
October 31, 2023, from 19.00 (CET).*
Abstract and title:
Hypothetical thinking around 1800
My paper examines little-studied accounts of the status and role of
hypotheses in late 18th and early 19th-century Germany. German scholars
regarded hypotheses, including those about unobservable causes for
visible effects, as legitimate and indeed necessary ingredients of
scientific inquiry. They debated the nature of probable hypotheses
resulting from incomplete inductions; proposed heuristics for making
causal hypotheses; and advanced criteria for assessing and testing them.
My survey of these rich and multifaceted discussions shows that many of
the themes and topics we commonly associate with modern philosophy of
science were discussed decades earlier by authors of educational and
practice-oriented books on logic: consequential testing,
underdetermination, auxiliary hypotheses, the problem of unobservable
entities, fallibility, and elaborate methodologies of observation and
experimentation. It also illuminates the long-term history of
present-day criteria for hypothesis evaluation.
Best wishes,
Laura
