Title
Maria Winkelmann at the Berlin Academy: A Turning Point for Women in Science
Description
EUROPEAN SCIENCE WAS in many ways a new enterprise in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, an enterprise that (at least ideologically) welcomed a broad participation. The regulations of the newly founded Berlin Academy stressed that modern science could flourish only with contributions from men of all social classes, nationalities, and religions. Was this ideological largess to be extended to women as well? After centuries of proscribing women from active participation, were centers of European intellectual life now to open their doors to them?
