Abstract
At the peak of an era of belief in scientific progress, in 1896, the philosopher Heinrich Rickert published a two volume treatise on the Limits of Concept Formation in Natural Science. He claimed that also a current scientific knowledge, may it be based on a general law of nature or a mathematical array, had to be seen as an object of history. The history of concepts, in its German setting of the 1960ies and 70ies was framed by a worshiping of concepts in the more narrow sense of concepts that are being conveyed by language. The history of science though found its most productive approaches in laboratory studies and epistemology. Only recently the prospects of merging linguistic- and practical turn are being evaluated. The introduction ends with brief comprehensions of this volume's papers, relating them to the broader topic of the conference.
