编辑爱因斯坦科学手稿的挑战
The Challenge of Editing Einstein's Scientific Manuscripts
摘要：
爱因斯坦的研究手稿为他非凡的创造力提供了重要的见解。与此同时，它们可能会给出版《爱因斯坦论文集》（CPAE）的文献版带来困难。这些问题说明了讨论如何爱因斯坦的研究手稿的一些重要的例子已列入前卷的CPAE系列：1910年至1914年的草稿笔记，1912年的苏黎世笔记，记录了他早期对引力协变理论的探索，以及1913年的爱因斯坦-贝索手稿，包含了根据爱因斯坦-格罗斯曼方程计算水星近日点的过程。另一类研究笔记是“信封背面”计算。一个主要的挑战，未来卷的CPAE系列是爱因斯坦的柏林和普林斯顿研究手稿上的统一场论。这批约1700页未注明日期的手稿也给科学史家带来了巨大的挑战。虽然网络为编辑工作提供了新的可能性，例如在爱因斯坦档案在线网站上发布传真，但有人认为，这些手稿所带来的编辑问题的满意解决方案取决于学术努力，以重建和理解爱因斯坦手稿的内容。
英文摘要：
Einstein's research manuscripts provide important insights into his exceptional creativity. At the same time, they can present difficulties for a publication in the documentary edition of the Collected Papers of Albert Einstein (CPAE). The problems are illustrated by discussing how some important examples of Einstein's research manuscripts have been included in previous volumes of the CPAE series: his Scratch Notebook from the years 1910-1914, his so-called Zurich Notebook from 1912, documenting his early search for a generally covariant theory of gravitation, and the Einstein-Besso manuscript from 1913, containing calculations of Mercury's perihelion advance on the basis of the Einstein-Grossmann equations. Another category of research notes are "back-of-an-envelope" calculations. A major challenge for future volumes of the CPAE series are Einstein's Berlin and Princeton research manuscripts on a unified field theory. This batch of some 1700 undated manuscript pages presents a formidable challenge also for historians of science. Although the web provides new possibilities for the editorial task, such as the publication of facsimiles on the Einstein Archives Online website, it is argued that a satisfactory solution of the editorial problems posed by these manuscripts depends on scholarly efforts to reconstruct and understand the content of Einstein's manuscripts.
