12th European Spring School on History of Science and Popularization

 “SCIENCE, HISTORY AND GLOBALIZATION”

  Maó, Menorca , 8-10 May 2025

Since the beginn ing of the century, scholars have increasingly engaged with the g lobal dimension of history. In 2004, Christopher Bayly highlighted the impo rtance of connections between apparently unrelated phenomena and processes in his The Birth of the Modern World. Between the decade of t he 1780s and 1914 a host of agents made the world economically, politically , culturally, and socially more homogeneous. The very same year, in 2004, h istorian of science Jim Secord coined the term “Knowledge in Transit”. Comm unication and the production of knowledge need to be understood as part of one process.

This Spring School will  explore in how&n bsp;far global history and the history of science may benefit from the methods and approaches of the other field. Paying close attention to non-W estern contexts of knowledge production is a classic example, revisiting ca tegories  such as the “Great Divergence” or “Industrious Revolution” w ith “new eyes” another. The dialectic between international political crise s and “refugee scholars” or the impact of the global animal trade on zoolog y since 1850, the role played by tropical medicine (broadely-constructed) i n the processes of nation-building and empire-building in the Age of Empire , are some more recent examples. Yet clearly, the dialogue between global h istorians and historians of science has only just begun and much of its pot ential remains untapped.

This Spring School aims  to foster and incentivise this dialogue. We have invited four senior scholars, who work in history of science and/or global history and have made in recent years significant contributions, also on a methodological level, to the historiography.

Zoltán Biedermann (Professo r of Early Modern History at University College London) is a historian of e arly modern global connections with a focus on the Portuguese Empire in Asi a. His interests include diplomacy, imperial ideas, cartography, and the po litics of space.

Helen Cowie (Professor of Earl y Modern History at the University of York) works on the cultural history o f science with a particular focus on the history of animals. She also resea rches and teaches the History of Latin America.

 Stefanie Gänger (Professor of Modern History at the University of Heidelberg) has explored the histories of collecti ng, science and medicine in late-colonial and early Republican Spanish America, as well as the wider world. 

James Poskett (Associate Professor in the History of Science and Technology at the University of Warwick) has worked on a wide range of topics that have taken him across the world, from astronomical observatories in India t o natural history museums in Australia. 

At the school these exp erts will be joined by a group of young scholars who will present their own research. Together we will reflect about the connectio ns between our fields of study. How may we insert our own case st udies in the overarching methodological and theoretical discussions? T he school will use different formats to facilitate conversation and exchang es: keynote lectures, workshops and posters.

The Spring School “ Science, History and Globalization”  is addressed at graduate students and early postdoctoral scholars. Applican ts are asked to send:

- a CV of no more than one page

- an abst ract of the research topic/case study they would like to discuss at the sch ool (as a pre-circulated paper or poster) of no more than one page

Please send your application by 1 December 2024  ;to
