    Extractions: Dieter Münch, What is cognitive history of philosophy? In: Roberto Casati / Graham White, ed., Philosophy and the cognitive sciences. Papers of the 16th International Wittgenstein Symposium Kirchberg am Wechsel: The Austrian Ludwig Wittgenstein Society 1993, pp. 363 - 366. In science there exist general accepted standards which guide not only its methodology but also the questions which are accepted as scientific. Everyone who has grasped these standards can at least in principle understand a scientist's work and these standards allow the development of a computational philosophy of science (cf. Thagard, Computational Philosophy of Science). In philosophy, however, the situation is different. Although rationality is essential for philosophy, even trained philosophers do quite often not know what to make of a certain philosophical classic. There is, therefore, in philosophy the need for interpretation which cannot refer to general accepted standards but which has to work out the individual character of the work in question. Thus the question arises whether there is a general framework or a law of qualitative structure which enables a systematic and scientific approach to philosophy without neglecting their individual character. According to the cognitive approach sketched above the philosopher is an intelligent system situated in a certain world in which he has to find his own way. His philosophy is the result (or the traces) of a kind of problem solving. The task of the cognitive historian of philosophy, now, is not merely to collect these ideas and consider what may be their place in the museum of ideas, but to reconstruct the questions the philosopher has asked and to interpret his philosophy as the answer to them. Similar claims have already been made by historians such as Collingwood. Without cognitive approach, however, these endeavours to take history seriously cannot but base their approach on empathy leading consequently to an idealism which identifies knowledge of history with self-knowledge (cf. Collingwood, Autobiography, chap. X).

Our Activities in 1998 (Japanese) Editor: Soshichi Uchii Biographies of Michael Faraday (Review essay for Uchii's lecture Scientists and Society by Soshichi Uchii 1. Victorian Biographies There are a number of biographies of Faraday, beginning with those written by persons directly acquainted with Faraday himself, such as Henry Bence Jones (Secretary of the Royal Institution) and John Tyndall (one of Faraday's closest academic associates at the Royal Institution). These works are not easily accessible to us. Although they should be certainly valuable in many respects, we have to suspect that they may tend to be hagiographical in that their descriptions and evaluations sometimes intentionally suppress "undesirable" facts about Faraday, as was actually the case with Francis Darwin's edition of his father's (Charles Darwin's) autobiography. 2.
