This project will restore the historical agency of coal as a natural substance, and explore the practical, sensory and embodied relationship between coal and coalminers in South Yorkshire during the industrial revolution. Insofar as historians of science have studied the scientific knowledge of industrial actors, they have focused on the Newtonian mechanics of natural philosophers and the technological innovation of industrialists. By focusing on the 'affective knowledge' of coal that miners possessed, this approach pays attention to a hitherto overlooked type of knowledge that contributed to the industrial revolution.

该项目将恢复煤炭作为自然物质的历史代理，并探索工业革命期间南约克郡煤炭与煤矿工人之间的实际，感官和体现关系。尽管科学史学家研究了工业行为者的科学知识，但他们关注的是自然哲学家的牛顿力学和工业家的技术创新。通过关注矿工所拥有的煤炭“情感知识”，这种方法关注了迄今为止被忽视的、对工业革命做出贡献的知识类型。
