Style Matters: Scientific Pluralism and its Early-Modern Sources

Project description

Paving the way for a theoretical foundation and epistemological knowledge of style

The concept of style, a key term used in the epistemological and scientific fields, has received very little scholarly attention, and discussions on it have led to vastly different views. Addressing this, the EU-funded EPISTYLE project will use innovative methodology to map a conceptual history of style, offering a genealogy of scientific pluralism and theories of the concept in the sciences. In doing so, the project will advance the theory that a link between style and knowledge established during the early modern period continues to have a strong conceptual influence today.
