Title: Introduction: The Rayonnement of Science and the History and Philosophy of Science in the Belle Époque Authors: Príncipe, João; Leite, Fábio Editors: Leite, Fábio; Duarte, Marina Abstract: Before the First World War (1914-1918), several of the richest European countries, with stable parliamentary regimes, lived through decades in which peace was accompanied by a set of transformations generally perceived as clear progress – this period has been called the Belle Époque, and reflects France’s cultural rayonnement. The belief in living in a unique period of progress was based on a set of socio-economic, technical-scientific and cultural developments. In this times occured a process of the emergence and consolidation of new areas of research and chairs in the history and philosophy of science were created at important institutions. The dossier here presented contains several articles that study the development of history and philosophy of science during the Belle Époque, time par excellence of the savants-philosophes.

Title: Henri Poincaré: The Love for Truth and the Relations Between Ethics and Science Authors: Príncipe, João Editors: Leite, Fábio; Duarte, Marina Abstract: In the years 1903-1910, Poincaré developed thoughts about the relationship between ethics and science. This essay gives a historical or genetic framework for these thoughts and analyzes their content. Around 1895, Ferdinand Brunetière claimed that science was bankrupt, and Marcelin Berthelot responded in the name of science. Poincaré came to affirm an ideal of science that shows its moral value, centered on the disinterested cult of truth, independence of spirit, criticism and vigilance towards prejudices, a skepticism that prevents presenting as science what is only half-science. At the same time, Poincaré, who attributed the driving force of moral actions to feelings, insisted on the impossibility/disadvantage of reducing morality to science. Attentive to the antinomies that arise in the confrontation and interaction of human things, he showed himself attentive to the contemporary debates associated with the emergence of Durkheimian sociology and the possibility of a “science des mœurs”.

Title: António Sérgio e as causas da decadência: o parasitismo ibérico visto dos dois lados do Atlântico circa 1910 Authors: Príncipe, João Abstract: O intelectual português António Sérgio (1883-1969) destacou-se pela sua interpretação cosmopolita da história de Portugal, se contrapondo às tentativas de instrumentalização nacionalista da história, em particular daquelas que viam na Expansão uma ação coletiva virtuosa. O presente artigo analisa o início desse seu trabalho interpretativo revisitando a polêmica com Jaime Cortesão (circa 1910), para mostrar como o próprio percurso cosmopolita de Sérgio favoreceu a incorporação de inspirações críticas de autores de outras nacionalidades, sobretudo intelectuais brasileiros seus contemporâneos, os quais se opunham ao determinismo rácico, misturando, como ele, as preocupações pedagógicas com as da compreensão histórica, assim como acreditando que os males nacionais, em boa parte comuns por comum ser a história, se resolveriam pela educação. Essas preocupações inscreviam-se num pensamento de matriz organicista, tingida de ideais liberais e socialistas, cuja dimensão sociológica relevamos. The Portuguese intellectual António Sérgio (1883-1969) stood out for his cosmopolitan interpretation of Portuguese history, opposing attempts to instrumentalize history in a nationalist way, particularly those who saw Expansion as a virtuous collective action. This article analyzes the beginning of his interpretative work by revisiting the polemic with Jaime Cortesão (circa 1910), to show how Sérgio’s cosmopolitan path favored the incorporation of critical inspirations from authors of other nationalities, especially his contemporary Brazilian intellectuals, who opposed racial determinism, mixing, like him, pedagogical concerns with those of historical understanding, as well as believing that national ills, largely common because history is common, could be solved through education. These concerns were part of an organicist mind set. tinged with liberal and socialist ideals, the sociological dimension of which we have highlighted.
