1 Emergence of Modern Science STSC 001 / HSOC 001 University of Pennsylvania Summer 2018 Tuesday, Thursday 9:00 am 12:50 pm Room TBD Instructor Tabea Cornel, M.A., B.Sc. 369 Claudia Cohen Hall cornelt@sas.upenn.edu Office hours Tuesday, Thursday 2 3 pm, and by appointment. Please sign up for office hours at least 24 hours in advance via . La Nature se dévoilant à la Science (Nature Unveiling Herself Before Science), created by Louis-Ernest Barrias (1899), Source: Wikipedia Course Description During the last 500 years, science has emerged as a central and transformative force that continues to reshape everyday life in countless ways. This introductory course will survey the emergence of the scientific world view from antiquity through the beginning of the 21 st century. By focusing on the life, work, and cultural contexts of those who created modern science, we will explore their core ideas and techniques, where they came from, what problems they solved, what made them controversial and exciting, and how they related to contemporary religious beliefs, politics, art, literature, and music. The course is organized chronologically and thematically. In short, this is a Western Civ course with a difference, open to students at all levels. Course Objectives This course will survey the global development of the practices, concepts, technologies, institutions, and identities that make up modern science, from early origins through to the present. The course is organized both chronologically and thematically. It offers an introduction to elements of world history as well as to central concerns of Science and Technology Studies. The course is intended for a wide variety of students. First-year students may find it a useful holistic introduction to their university studies; more advanced students may find it a helpful big picture to put what they know in broader perspective. We use a mix of lectures, audio-visual media, individual reading, group work, and in-class discussions to familiarize ourselves with the core ideas and selected detail of different episodes in the history of science. We also acquire a historical skillset: how to assess primary and secondary sources and critically debate them, and how to write a historical text. ~ 1 ~

Detailed instructions for each of the assignments will follow. Unless otherwise specified, all written assignments are due as hard copies at the beginning of class. All assignments have to be completed and submitted on time, and as instructed. Not following the guidelines will decrease your grade. Plagiarism in any assignment will result in a failing grade for that assignment, and may result in further disciplinary action, which may include receiving a failing grade for the course.
