Philosophy/History/Bubner: Thesis: one has to put aside the instilled methodological competence in favor of calling and expanding problem awareness. I 9 "Strategic alienation". Misunderstanding of possible adaptation to the scientific methodological ideal. >Method. I 10 Feyerabend/Bubner: since him (as well as Popper and Kuhn), it is no longer just as legitimate to trace back the state of knowledge reached at a given moment to the past. >Theory change, >Meaning change, >Interpretation, >Incommensurability, >K. Popper, >Th. Kuhn, >P. Feyerabend, >Historiography. I 14 History/Philosophy/Interpretation/Bubner: Philosophical history proceeds differently than other history.

Development/History/Aristotle: already he has a principle for the development of truth through historical stages of error. >Progress. History/Philosophy/Bubner: the beginnings are due to an overweight which cannot be gained anymore by any reflection. >Reflection. I 111 History/Bubner: one should not artificially enlarge existing and estimable time intervals._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
