[1977] Hermann von Helmholtz in the History of Scientific Method In 1921 the centenary of Helmholtz' birth Paul Hertz a physicist and Moritz Schlick a philosopher published a selection of his papers and lectures on the philosophical foundations of the sciences under the title Schriften zur Erkenntnistheorie. Combining qualities of respect and criticism that Helmholtz would have demanded Hertz and Schlick scrupulously annotated the texts. Their edition of Helmholtz was of historical influence comparable to the influence among contemporary mathematicians and philosophers of Hermann Weyl's annotated edition in 1919 of Riemann's great dissertation of 1854 on the foundations of geometry. For several reasons we are pleased to be able to bring this Schlick Hertz edition to the English-reading world: first and primary to honor the memory of Hermann von Helmholtz second as writings of historical value to deepen the understanding of mathematics and the natural sciences as well as of psychology and philosophy in the 19th centur- for Helmholtz must be comprehended within at least that wide a range third with Schlick to understand the developing empiricist philosophy of science in the early 20th century and fourth to bring the contributions of Schlick Hertz and Helmholtz to methodological debate in our own time a half century later long after the rise and consolidation of logical empiricism the explosion of physics since Planck and Einstein and the development of psychology since Freud and Pavlov.
