The lecture will focus on 3 themes in Ørsted's biography:
1. The paradigm shift of HICP research into electromagnetism inwarted in European natural sciences.
2. The perception of pedagogical theory and practice that HCØ sought to promote with the formation of the CUNNING, including the role of science and mathematics in general formation.
3. HICP lifelong interest in the relationship between natural sciences and aesthetics, including his notions of the rational unconscious in tone and image art and in scientific research.
