Pasteur "A developing science depended on The Natural History of Man a work that was found to possess the functional capacity of extending the boundaries of knowledge. 'Buffon enlarged all the questions he touched on furthermore he created new questions' Flourens 1850:155. As soon as the 'varieties' and therefore the variations in man became the central issue to be elucidated the analysis of the biological and sociological mechanisms responsible for creating racial differences became more diversified. A discipline was thus created one that would rapidly differentiate between its objects of inquiry and its techniques of inquiry. It can be seen then that without any kind of break the Buffonian ideology of man retrospectively discovered a scholarly solution in what Thomas Kuhn called a 'disciplinary matrix' a hard kernel of statements principles deductive links and exemplary cases that allowed work on proofs to proceed within a framework of cumulative knowledge. At the origin of this process of'crystallization' there was neither the stroke of intuitive genius of a solitary scientist nor a 'great idea' divorced from its social pre-text. Instead there is a complex process whose contextual and biographical foundations as well as future academic and nationalistic issues are revealed by epistemological analysis."
