- Abstract
- The paper takes a retrospective look at the work of Henry Evelyn Bliss, classificationist theorist and author of the Bibliographic Classification. Major features of his writings and philosophy are examined and evaluated for the originality of their contribution to the corpus of knowledge in the discipline. Reactions to Bliss's work are analysed, as is his influence on classification theory of the 20th century. Contemporary work on knowledge organization is seen to continue a number of strands from Bliss's original writings. His standing as a classificationist is compared with that of Ranganathan, with the conclusion that he is not given the credit he deserves.

- Abstract
- The concerns of the past century follow us into the next. Despite continuing technological advancement we find ourselves overwhelmed by a virtual tidal wave of information. Instead of reinventing seemingly novel solutions, it is appropriate to reexamine the successes and failures of the past. In light of the increasing focus on faceted classification as a potential approach to the problems of organizing conceptual space, it is appropriate to direct critical attention to the convoluted nature of the interaction between Henry Evelyn Bliss and S. R. Ranganathan. Drawing upon the methods of historiography, this is a review of original documents and an analysis of primary examples drawn from the correspondence between Ranganathan and Bliss currently in possession of the Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Columbia University and Archives and Special Collections at the Morris Raphael Cohen Library, City College of New York. This analysis will serve as a springboard to further exploration of the synthetic nature of faceted classification

- Abstract
- Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to document how Paul Otlet, founding-father of what is termed at present as "information science", attempted to provide a complete "image of the world" (and reality in general) by establishing the scientific discipline he dubbed "documentation". The paper also aims to focus on how Otlet represented human knowledge and reality in a systematic and unified way. Design/methodology/approach - A close reading of Otlet's primary works and some of his personal archives was undertaken. Findings - Most importantly, it is shown that Otlet's views on documentation were immersed in a cosmological, objectivist, humanitarian and ontological framework that is alien to contemporary information science. Correspondingly, his alleged affinity with positivism is reassessed. Originality/value - The philosophical foundations of the origins of information science are highlighted. Indirectly, this paper is relevant to the ongoing debate on realism and anti-realism in information science.

- Abstract
- This article explores the connections between Melvil Dewey and Hegelianism and Charles Cutter and the Scottish Common Sense philosophers. It traces the practice of hierarchy from these philosophical influences to Dewey and Cutter and their legacy to today's Dewey Decimal Classification and Library of Congress Subject Headings. The ubiquity of hierarchy is linked to Dewey's and Cutter's metaphor of organizing the mob of information into an orderly army using the tool of logic.

- Abstract
- Das Abenteuer, ein Buch neu zu denken, das die Welt neu denken wollte: Diderots und d'Alemberts Encyclopédie. Es freilegen, befreien von Vereinnahmung und Verklärung, die das unbändige Werk in kostbares Leder packen, im Regal verstauen, mit einem Brockhaus verwechseln. Im Lauf der Zeit fallen alle Auswüchse, Sehnsüchte, Widersprüche den Gelehrten zum Opfer, denen soviel ungestümes Leben angst macht. Der Mensch, der doch im Mittelpunkt aller Bestrebungen der Enzyklopädisten steht, wird aus dem Buch gedrängt - übrig bleiben die großen Ideen, die hehren Ideale, um deren Unvereinbarkeit mit der Realität Diderot und die Seinen wohl wußten, doch schon bald nicht mehr wissen durften. Denn die Fackel der Aufklärung leuchtete längst nicht in alle Winkel des menschlichen Herzens. Schwärmerei und Gottesfurcht haben darin ebenso überlebt wie die bemerkenswert unaufgeklärte Betrachtung der Anderen: der Faulenzer, Müßiggänger, Sodomiten, Deserteure und Selbstmörder, von Frauen und Negern ganz zu schweigen. Zweihundertfünfzig Jahre später wühlen wir uns durch die Folianten, fahren auf Alleen und Sandwegen vorbei an allem erdenklichen Getier und Gewächs, an Gebilden, Gebäuden, und wir staunen darüber, wie uns die Enzyklopädisten, die doch schon so lange tot sind, plötzlich in Fleisch und Blut durch ihr Universum führen: Wiesen, Himmel, Steinbrüche, Senkgruben. Die Grenzen, die sie ihrer Welt gesetzt haben, kreuzen die unseren. Mit einem Buch die Menschheit verbessern zu wollen, was für eine Anmaßung! Mit Wörtern die Welt beschreiben, welch Wahnwitz! Und doch: Nach und nach werden aus Wörtern Stimmen, hören wir Verstimmungen glückliche Tage, Verdruß. Wir lesen, daß Diderot nach seiner Rückkehr vom Begräbnis des verehrten Freundes Montesquieu seinen Artikel EKLEKTIZISMUS beendet; lassen uns von Jaucourts Entdeckerfreude anstecken, wenn er die hungrige Laus auf seinem Handrücken beschreibt, Bein für Bein, Haar für Haar; amüsieren uns über Rousseaus Verdammung schlecht klingender Trompeten; lesen, wie sich die wohl einzige Frau, die an der Encyclopédie mitschreiben durfte, Susanne-Marie de Vivans, über die Weitschweifigkeit ihrer Kollegen mokiert; fragen uns, wo denn die Aufklärung geblieben ist, wenn Voltaire ausruft, man könne die Geschichte nicht studieren, ohne »Abscheu gegenüber der menschlichen Gattung« zu fassen; und wir fühlen mit, wie Diderot sich im Artikel ENZYKLOPÄDIE den ganzen Frust von der Seele schreibt über das »verfluchte Monstrum«, das ihm so viele Jahre seines Lebens geraubt hat. Zweihundertfünfzig Jahre Lorbeer, Tortenguß, Bibliothekenstaub, Gipsschichten, Ketzerhemden und Talare: Nackt sieht die Encyclopédie anders aus, menschlicher, weniger angsteinflößend, bezaubernder, fehlerhafter; und nackt oder zumindest im Morgenmantel, dem liebgewordenen, abgegriffenen, auch die Autoren in ihren Artikeln. Nicht in den weltbewegenden, vielzitierten, anthologisierten; es sind die Kleinode, Rohdiamanten, in denen der Mensch überlebt, und die uns heute noch anrühren, Arche Noah in unserer Zeit der beliebig verfügbaren, verlinkten Information - Orakel auf unserem Weg durchs 21. Jahrhundert.
