Subject: CfP: Cultural History of Heredity II: 18th to 19th Centuries

The Max-Planck-Institute for the History of Science Berlin is inviting
scholars from a wide variety of disciplines, including historians of
science, art and literature, medicine, law, and economics, to submit
paper proposals for its forthcoming workshop "Cultural History of
Heredity II: Eighteenth to Nineteenth Centuries". This workshop,
scheduled for January 10-12 2003, is part of a series of workshops
forming the backbone of a long term research project on the cultural
history of heredity that aims to uncover the technical, juridical,
medical, and scientific practices in which the knowledge of inheritance
was historically anchored in different epochs and to understand the
genesis of today??s naturalistic concept of heredity. For further
information see call for papers at
http://www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/HEREDITY/CALL.html or e-mail to
smuewi@mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de.
