    Series Statement: Biographien hervorragender Naturwissenschaftler, Techniker und Mediziner 87
    Note: Eine Biographie im üblichen Sinn des Wortes wird man in diesem Buch nicht finden, denn über das Leben Euklids ist keine einzige gesicherte Tatsache bekannt. Der Name Euklid und das ihm zugeschriebene Werk - die Elemente - spielen jedoch seit rund 2300 Jahren eine wichtige Rolle, nicht nur in der Geschichte der Mathematik, sondern auch in der der Philosophie und der allgemeinen Kulturgeschichte. Beide Wörter sind auch in der Gegenwart in mannigfachen Zusammensetzungen in Benutzung: euklidische und nichteuklidische Geometrie, euklidische Räume, euklidische Metrik, euklidische Ringe, euklidischer Algorithmus, Elementarmathematik, elementare Theorie usw. beherrschen das Vokabular der modernen Mathematik. Zugleich ist das Wissen des zeitgenössischen Mathematikers und an der Mathematik Interessierten um den Inhalt, die Bedeutung und die historische Entwicklung der Elemente auf einem Tiefpunkt angelangt, während andererseits ein kleines internationales Häuflein von Spezialisten fleißig weiter an der riesigen Flut von Sekundarliteratur zu diesem Thema produziert - und dabei nach unserem Gefühl am Informationsbedürfnis einer breiten Schicht möglicher Interessenten vorbeiproduziert. Diesem Mißstand möchten wir mit der vorliegenden populären Darstellung, die sich ausdrücklich nicht an die Spezialisten dieses Gebietes wendet, ein wenig abhelfen. Trotzdem werden vielleicht auch diese einige neue Aspekte finden. Die Kombination des in dieser Buchreihe üblichen knappen Umfanges mit dem unüblichen Berichtszeitraum von rund 2500 Jahren bedingte, daß viele wichtige Fragen, denen in der Spezialliteratur breiter Raum gewidmet wird, nur angedeutet manchmal nur in einem Satz erwähnt werden konnten

    Series Statement: Variorum collected studies
    Content: "This book presents eight papers about important historiographical issues as debated in the history of science in Islamicate societies, the history of science and philosophy of medieval Latin Europe and the history of mathematics as an academic discipline. Six papers deal with themes about the sciences in Islamicate societies from the ninth to the seventeenth centuries, among them novelty, context and decline. Two other papers discuss the historiographical practices of historians of mathematics and other disciplines in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The central argument of the collected papers is that in addition and beyond the study of scientific texts and instruments historians of science in Islamicate societies need to pay attention to cultural, material and social aspects that shaped the scientific activities of the authors and makers of such texts and instruments. It is pointed out that the diachronic, de-contextualized comparison between methods and results of scholars from different centuries, regions and cultures often leads to serious distortions of the historical record and is responsible for the long-term neglect of scholarly activities after the so-called "Golden Age". The book will appeal in particular to teachers of history of science in Islamicate societies, to graduate students interested in issues of methodology and to historians of science grappling with the unresolved problems of how think and write about the sciences in concrete societies of the past instead of subsuming all extant texts, instruments, maps and other objects related to the sciences under macro-level concepts like Islam or Latin Europe"--
