In the early eighteenth century, the modern German word that would later mean "science," naturwissenschaft, was not even included in dictionaries. By 1850, however, the term was in use everywhere. Acolytes of Nature follows the emergence of this important new category within German- speaking Europe, tracing its rise from an insignificant eighteenth-century neologism to a defining rallying cry of modern German culture. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 18th century|2fast 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1700-1899|2fast 650 0 Science|zGermany|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008111328|y18th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012474 650 0 Science|zGermany|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008111328|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 650 7 Science.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1108176 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 651 7 Germany.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1210272 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aPhillips, Denise.|tAcolytes of Nature : Defining Natural Science in Germany, 1770-1850.|dChicago : University of Chicago Press, ©2012|z9780226667379 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=454199|zOnline eBook.
