3. Halmstadgruppens metamorfoser : en studie av en konstnärsgrupp
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to study a Swedish group of artists (Sven Jonson, Waldemar Lorentzon, Stellan Mörner, Axel Olson, Erik Olson, Esaias Thorén), both as a social phenomenon and as an intellectual fellowship.

Sammanfattning : The chief aim in this work is to demonstrate the fruitfulness of Ludwik Fleck’s philosophy of science for stimulating a number of new viewpoints in the study of popular science and popularisation from the vantage point of history of ideas and science. Taking its point of departure in the question, ”What is popular science?”, the present work articulates a comprehensive theoretical framework for addressing problems regarding the place of popular science and its multiple functions, as well as necessary preconditions needed for popularisation.
