The aim of this two-day International Symposium is the Celebration of 200 years (1822-2022) since the publication of Newton’s Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica Geneva Edition ([1739-1742]1822). Due to the continuing global pandemic it was not possible to organize it in 2022. It is hosted by the History of Physics and Applied Science & Technologies Team (HOPAST) at IEMN, France | Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics and Nanotechnology (IEMN), CNRS-University of Lille, France | Department of Humanities and Cultural Heritage (DIUM), University of Udine, Italy, and the Centre for the History and Philosophy of Physics (HAPP), University of Oxford, UK | The British Society for the History of Mathematics, UK. In particular the aim is to bring together new research–&–interdisciplinary perspectives from history, mathematics, and physics to explore the context of Newton's Science, his Principia (1687) and his (post-edited) Principia Geneva Edition (1822 in Glasgow), to increase our understanding of the subject.
