Sommario/riassunto

Die Studie untersucht das Spektrum populärwissenschaftlicher Darstellungsformen in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts und unternimmt erstmals den Versuch einer Systematisierung des Textfeldes zwischen Justus von Liebig und Ernst Haeckel.Die populäre Wissenschaftsprosa wird über ihre textuellen Verfahren, ihre gattungs- und medienspezifischen Darbietungsansprüche erschlossen. Leitend ist dabei die These, dass Popularität als eigenständiges Textmerkmal zu verstehen ist und maßgeblich vom rhetorischen Konzept der Evidenz und von Techniken der Veranschaulichung, des Sichtbarmachens und Vor-Augen-Stellens abhängt. Die Arbeit untersucht unter anderem populäre Briefe, Zeitschriften, Lexika, Hand- und Lehrbücher ebenso wie weltanschauliche Streitschriften. An all diesen Quellen lässt sich zeigen, wie sich die Entstehung und Professionalisierung und die Verbreitung und Popularisierung moderner Wissenschaftsdisziplinen wechselseitig bedingen.

Sommario/riassunto

The GIScience conference series (www. giscience. org) was created as a forum for all researchers who are interested in advancing research in the fundam- tal aspects of geographic information science. Starting with GIScience 2000 in Savannah, Georgia, USA, the conferences have been held biennially, bringing together a highly interdisciplinary group of scientists from academia, industry, and governmentto analyze progressand to explore new researchdirections. The conferences focus on emerging topics and basic research ?ndings across all s- tors of geographic information science. After three highly successful conferences in the United States, this year’s GIScience conference was held in Europe for the ?rst time. The GIScience conferences have been a meeting point for researchers coming from various disciplines, including cognitive science, computer science, engine- ing, geography,information science, mathematics, philosophy, psychology,social science, and statistics. The advancement of geographic information science - quiressuchinterdisciplinarybreadth,andthisisalsowhatmakestheconferences so exciting. In order to account for the di?erent needs of the involved scienti?c disciplines with regard to publishing their research results, we again organized two separate stages of paper submission: 93 full papers were each thoroughly reviewed by three Program Committee members and 26 were selected for p- sentation at the conference and inclusion in this volume. Then, 159 extended abstracts, describing work in progress, were screened by two Program Comm- tee members each. Subsequently, 42 of them were selected for oral presentation, and 46 for poster presentation at the conference.
