Menopause has long been understood and portrayed in Western culture as an ending: of fertility, femininity, and visibility. Yet testimony from women is often contradictory, positioning it as the beginning of a new phase of freedom in women’s lives. Recent years have seen increased popular interest in menopause and menopausal women and greater public discourse around issues of women, ageing and representation. Menopause has become a category of cultural production and menopausal women a target for the marketing of a huge range of ‘menopause’ products and services. In many ways ‘menopause’ as a concept has seen a new beginning. This symposium aims to bring together researchers and stakeholders from a range of disciplines within the arts and humanities to ignite conversations about menopause and build a network of interest to develop and pursue both academic and practice-based work. It is the second event organised by the Scholarly Association of Menopausal Studies, established in 20...

This thematic issue of the journal Histoire, médecine et santé examines the various uses of and relations to nature in the field of health. The historically and culturally situated concept of “nature” can of course take on several meanings and be subject to debate. Regarding its relationship to health, the many “natural” medicine currents that emerged in Europe from the last third of the nineteenth century spontaneously come to mind. Through their practices, these currents have sought to oppose a form of medicine deemed increasingly artificial and chemical, particularly as a result of the industrialisation of drug production. Nevertheless, in the wake of calls to “put an end to parallel medicine” (Guillemain, Faure, 2019), this issue neither seeks to restrict itself to the margins of medicine, nor to disconnect their history from more general scientific and cultural movements. While paying renewed attention to these margins, it thus adopts a broad definition of “nature”, encompassing a...

In August 2004, the Circulation of Knowledge conference—jointly organized in Halifax, Nova Scotia by the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Science, the British Society for History of Science, and the History of Science Society—set out challenges to the then-dominant centre-periphery models of the origins and dissemination of scientific knowledge. Jim Secord’s keynote address, “Knowledge in Transit”, outlined the issues at stake. Scholarship on the circulation of knowledge has since exploded and it is time not only to take stock, but to open new research avenues in globalised History/Philosophy of Science and Science and Technology Studies. Circulating Knowledge – 20 Years On proposes to revisit the circulation of knowledge, 20 years after this pioneering conference, through a series of plenary presentations, individual talks, roundtables, and special events. The goal of the conference is to foster international collaborative exchange along the axes of research, translation...
