In the following discussion I limit myself, in the above quoted period, mainly to natural sciences and medicine, which were relatively close fields of science in the 19' century, just as they are today, and developed following somewhat similar guidelines. Both of these are closely connected with world science, very open to influencing, and importantly, regarding the study of contacts.
