The theme I have chosen is of the Antikythera Mechanism, about which you may read more at the end of this post.
While I tried to organise the links into themes, this was only done as a rough measure to bring some structure to this post. The categories and links within them are not in any particular order. Except I put Thony Christie's first, for it was through his blog that I came to this carnival.
It is interesting to see original histsci work being done at so many levels.
I hope my regular readers will enjoy this event - which is connected to my interest in science, if from a literary standpoint.
*Histsci: Figures, movements
"Isaac Newton: The Last Lone Genius?" Thony Christie (Criticism of Newton’s presentation
in the BBC film documentary, The Last
Magician: “The young Newton did not like some
Carrollian hero draw his Vorpal Blade to slay the Jabberwock of ancient Greek
science but like any bright young academic would do jumped on the band wagon of
modern science that was speeding full speed ahead into the future.” Great writing.)
"Gopnik, Galileo and Ed Young: Galileo not admitting to being wrong" Thony Christie ([Modern] myth vs. the man.)

Also along these lines: "Nietzsche's Marginal Children: On Friedrich Hayek" Corey Robin, market vs. politics and morals.)
"Did scientist-critics invent operational research?" Will Thomas (Questions whether misunderstanding of nature of science caused national failure to alleviate socio-economic problems. Also see his "In Praise of Praise: How Historians Could Improve Celebratory History".)
"Saving the symmetry principle, IIIa: truth in the history of science" Michael Bycroft ("Isn't it bad practice for a historian or a sociologist of science to let questions of truth and falsity interfere?")

"Hooke, Newton and the 'missing' portrait" Felicity Henderson (Did Newton slash Hooke’s portrait? No spoilers in this tagline...)
"Dropping in on Gottfried Leibniz" Stephen Wolfram (Leafing through the Leibniz archives: his resolve to make a ‘universal’ calculator. So fascinating: “But Leibniz latched on to base 2 as having particular significance ... binary numbers were at the core of the I Ching, which he’d heard about from missionaries to China, and viewed as related in spirit to his characteristica universalis.” The post is a must-read.)
