C.P. Snow famously articulated what seemed to be an unbreachable intellectual wall in 1959 in his “Two Cultures” lecture. He spoke of two groups of intellectuals who worked alongside each other in academic institutions, both doing important work, but who had almost totally ceased to communicate. The “literary intellectuals” and the “scientific intellectuals” of Snow’s era, grunting unpleasantly at each other across the high tables of Cambridge, may look like distant ancestors in an intellectual evolution that has progressed well beyond that period, but we should look again, and carefully.

简介：艺术与科学

CP Snow 于 1959 年在他的“两种文化”演讲中，著名地阐明了似乎是不可逾越的知识墙。他谈到了在学术机构中并肩工作的两组知识分子，他们都从事着重要的工作，但几乎完全停止了交流。斯诺时代的“文学知识分子”和“科学知识分子”隔着剑桥的高桌不悦地互相咕哝着，在远远超出那个时期的知识分子进化过程中，他们看起来像是远方的祖先，但我们应该再看一遍，和仔细。简介：艺术与科学 Erika Behrisch Elce
