The Relationship between the Principles of Knowledge and the Theory of Hypothesis in Émilie Du Châtelet

该项目的目的是描绘杜夏特莱的假设理论和她的知识的原则的理解之间的关系，以及从而整合到科学史的基础，她的科学理论。通过这样做，可以纠正从近代早期开始的科学理论历史发展的既定和公认的概念，并最终承认埃米尔·杜沙特莱作为一名女性对科学理论历史的重要贡献。

The aim of the project is to delineate the relationship between Du Châtelet's theory of hypothesis and her understanding of the principles of knowledge as well as to thereby integrate the foundations of her theory of science into the history of science. By so doing, the given and accepted conception of the historical development of the theory of science following on from the early modern period can be corrected and Émilie Du Châtelet's important contribution to its history, as a woman, can finally be recognised.
