During the early decades of the XIX century\, two major French publishers\, Charles-Louis Panckoucke ( 1780-1844) and Jean-Baptiste Baillière (1797-1885) entered the market of transnational and global communication\, by making available translations from the German language into French. Panckoucke\, the son of the publishe r linked to the editorial enterprise of Diderot’s and D’Alembert’s E ncyclopédie\, published a Dictionnaire des sciences médicales (60 vol.\, 1811-1822). The work was heavily indebted to German medicine\, and made h im a millionaire. From the late 1820s until the late 1850s\, Baillière pr oduced multi-volume translations of German works in medicine\, physics\, c hemistry\, the history of medicine and the history of philosophy – with a marked predilection for homeopathy and macrobiotics. He opened a highly profitable shop in London\, and sent members of his family to establish br anches in Australia\, Canada\, the United States\, and Spain\, thus becomi ng the first global scientific publisher - and a very rich man.\nSpeakers: \nProfessor Pietro Corsi (University of Oxford) LOCATION:History Faculty (Lecture Theatre)\, George Street OX1 2RL TZID:Europe/London URL:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/73733831-96e3-4065-bcfc-c7af5e4e7821/ BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:display DESCRIPTION:Talk:German science\, French translations\, and the global mar ket of books (1810-1850) - Professor Pietro Corsi (University of Oxford) TRIGGER:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:History of Understanding of the Cerebral Cortex - Professor Zoltan Molnar (DPAG\, University of Oxford)\, Prof Richard Brown (Dalhousie Univ ersity)\, Professor Lorenzo Lorusso (Mellino Mellini Hospital Trust\, Bres cia Italy)\, Professor Colin Blakemore (Centre for the Study of the Senses School of Advanced Study\, University of London)\, Professor Marco Piccol ino (Italian Institute of Neurosciences University of Ferrara\, Italy)\, D r Damion Young (University of Oxford)\, Dr Tom Quick (Department of Physio logy\, Anatomy and Genetics\, University of Oxford)\, Professor Gordon M S hepherd (Department of Neurobiology\, Yale School of Medicine)\, Silke Ac kermann (Museum of the History of Science)\, Professor Pietro Corsi (Univ ersity of Oxford) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150512T133000 DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150512T190000 UID:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/70d425c7-4c48-47d2-a41b-d0ece7aa9851/ DESCRIPTION:1:30 Registration - Cofee\n2:00 Welcome - Professor Zoltan M olnar (FENS History Committee Member) and \nMr Sebastian Vasquez Lopez (Pr esident of Cortex Club)\n2:05 Professor Lorenzo Lorusso (President of FEN S History Committee\, Neurology \nDept\, Mellino Mellini Hospital Trust\, Brescia Italy) - Neuroscience discoveries by cinematography \n2:30 Profess or Colin Blakemore Professor of Neuroscience & Philosophy – Director of the \nCentre for the Study of the Senses School of Advanced Study\, Univer sity of London \n3:00 Professor Marco Piccolino (Italian Institute of Neu rosciences University of Ferrara\, Italy) - Vision and the senses in the w ork of Galileo Galilei\n3:30 Tea (Group photograph)\n4:00 Dr Damion Young (Medical Sciences Division Learning Technologies (MSDLT)\, \nUniversity o f Oxford) and Professor Zoltan Molnar (Department of Physiology\, Anatomy and Genetics\, University of Oxford) - Historic digital repositories for t he 21st Century\, Developing the https://history.medsci.ox.ac.uk/ - site a nd using it in teaching.\n4:30 Dr Tom Quick\, (Department of Physiology\, Anatomy and Genetics\, University of Oxford) \nNerve physiology and scienc e education in Britain\, c.1850-1930.\n5:00 Professor Gordon M Shepherd (D epartment of Neurobiology\, Yale School of \nMedicine\, New Haven\, CT\, U SA).
