Ce livre trace l’histoire culturelle du concept d’hérédité à la fin du Moyen Âge et au début de l’Époque moderne, en croisant médecine, science, théologie, droit, théorie politique et historiographie.Certes, il n’existe pas alors de théorie générale de l’hérédité. La société médiévale est fondée sur la parenté et l’héritage; une idéologie cohérente qui justifierait ce fonctionnement fait pourtant défaut. Les discours savants restent souvent hostiles à l’hérédité. La médecine et la physiognomonie se concentrent sur l’individu, écartant souvent le déterminisme parental. Le discours sur la noblesse exalte la vertu personnelle et déprécie les ancêtres. La théologie chrétienne insiste sur l’unité du genre humain, tendance encore renforcée par la philosophie aristotélicienne. Néanmoins, comme le montre également ce livre, c’est bien au Moyen Âge que prennent forme plusieurs concepts et termes qui constitueront, plus tard, des éléments clefs du paradigme héréditaire. Ainsi, c’est à cette époque que naît le concept juridique de consanguinité dans un sens biologique. C’est alors que se forge le terme de ‘race’, que l’on anoblit certains types de chiens et d’oiseaux et que se dessine le concept du sang noble. Certains théorisent également l’idée que la discrimination sociale, comme celle des juifs, s’expliquerait en partie par une constitution physique spécifique. C’est encore au Moyen Âge que les médecins commencent à qualifier certaines maladies d’héréditaires. La rupture entre Moyen Âge et Époque moderne était souvent supposée sans être véritablement examinée. La chronologie large de cet ouvrage permet d’être sensible tant aux continuités qu’aux changements et de nuancer l’importance de la découverte de l’Amérique pour l’histoire de l’hérédité.

Peter Caws provides a fresh and often iconoclastic treatment of some of the most vexing problems in the philosophy of science: explanation, induction, causality, evolution, discovery, artificial intelligence, and the social implications of technological rationality. Caws's work has been shaped equally by the insights of Continental philosophy and a concern with scientific practice. In these twenty-eight essays spanning more than a quarter of a century, he ranges from discussions of the work of French philosopher Gaston Bachelard, to relations between science and surrealism, to the concept of intentionality, to the limits of quantitative description. A lively mix of history, theory, speculation, and analysis, Yorick's World presents a vision of science that includes human history and social life. It will interest professional philosophers and scientists, and at the same time its directness will make it readily accessible to nontechnical readers.
