Possible knowledge: forms of literary and scientific thought in early modern England
No full textThis dissertation argues that the emergence of a new intellectual paradigm I call “possible knowledge”—encompassing projective, probable, counterfactual, hypothetical, conjectural, and prophetic ways of thinking—shaped literary and scientific writing in Renaissance England. The project uncovers a prehistory of scientific probability, still perceived as an Enlightenment-era phenomenon, by focusing on a constellation of speculative modes of knowing that drew on the imagination in the face of epistemic uncertainty. Possible knowledge emerges from elements crucial to our understanding of the literary, including mimesis, utopian discourse, and dramatic enactment, and it crosses generic boundaries. The disruption of prophetic certainty, for instance, informs the action in William Shakespeare’s _Macbeth_, while the unrepeatable epic events in John Milton’s _Paradise Lost_ reveal why contemporary experimental methods—which could produce only probable knowledge about the natural world—were insufficient to explicate prelapsarian states of being. I engage with the history and philosophy of science to show how the techniques of writing associated with possible knowledge are visible across modern disciplinary divides: the error and the endlessness that govern Edmund Spenser’s epic-romance, _The Faerie Queene_, are at the heart of the modern scientific epistemology laid out in Francis Bacon’s inductive method. And as Margaret Cavendish’s utopian experiment with cognitive realms in _The Blazing World_ underscores, possibility could allow authors intellectual freedom and creativity in their engagement with the material world. By focusing on hypothetical and suppositional modes of thinking, I map the contours of the humanities and the sciences as these began to assume their modern disciplinary forms.Ph.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
