摘要
The article focuses on the interaction of knowledge transfer and urbanization in Central Europe, 1880-1914. This happens through analyzing three cases of urban forms of knowledge production and communication: the Industry palace, the scientific theater "Urania," and the philosophical journal "Logos" in Budapest between 1873 and 1914. The article formulates the hypothesis, that these various "knowledge formats" of scientific activities had been products of the urban development of Budapest. The application of the concept of " knowledge formats" enables to analyze and capture the complex interaction between city, knowledge, and social agents.
