  MODERN FRENCH PHILOSOPHY - CHAPTER III - SCIENCE
The sciences of nature may be allowed and encouraged to work diligently upon their own principles, but the very fact that they are individual sciences compels them to admit that they view the whole "piecemeal".
The critique of science, which is so prominent in Boutroux, was characteristic of a number of thinkers whom we cannot do more than mention here in passing, for in general their work is not in line with the spiritualist development, but is a sub-current running out and separated from the main stream.
Science promises us well-being or pleasure, but philosophy, claims Bergson, can give us joy, by its intuitions, its super-intellectual vision, that vital contact with life itself in its fulness, which is far grander and truer than all the abstractions of science.

 Science Quotes
Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
Science is facts; just as houses are made of stone, so is science made of facts; but a pile of stones is not a house, and a collection of facts is not necessarily science.
Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation.

These debates, which lasted well into the 1870s, although a commission of the Académie des Sciences officially accepted Pasteur’s results in 1864, gave great impetus to improving experimental techniques in microbiology.

The exhibition "Gregor Mendel" is based on "The Genius of Genetics, a celebration of Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) through science and art".
In 1865 Mendel presented his seminal paper on pea hybrids, Experiments in Plant Hybridization, and in 1866 this was published in the proceedings of the local Society for Natural Sciences.
The contemporary artists in this exhibition share a fascination with the classification of nature, with the patterns observed in natural phenomena and in the animal kingdom, and with the scientific search for explanations of deep formal affinities across diverse physical and biological systems.

In 1804 he lectured on his whole system to a class of about thirty (among them the Dutch van Ghert and Gabler, who later became Hegel's successor as Professsor of Philosophy in Berlin), although the average attendance was rather less.
In 1822 Hegel made a long trip to the Netherlands and the Lower Rhine countries.
As an example of Hegel's difficult situation, it is interesting to remember that even relaxing occasions such as the celebration of the philosopher's birthday in 1826 (see above) were used by his detractors as means to put him in a bad light.
