摘要

斯蒂芬·季莫申科是应用力学各个方面的大量教科书的作者,并通过这些教科书为应用力学在世界上的迅速发展做出了贡献。一如既往,科学界对科学家个人的一面也很感兴趣。本文专门讨论斯蒂芬·季莫申科在他的自传中所作的一段陈述。具体来说,它涉及季莫申科对二战期间发生的大屠杀至少部分的“解释”。尽管在笔者看来,季莫申科的言论构成了公开的反犹主义,但似乎并没有打扰到许多继续以各种方式纪念他的研究人员。“废话就是废话,但废话的历史是学术研究,”索尔·利伯曼(Saul Lieberman)说。因此,本文提出了调查铁木申科的荒谬和过度反犹太主义的声明。本作者与许多科学史家通信,他们都否认季莫申科的断言。最重要的是,这些记者更加生动地揭示了犹太科学家所经历的大屠杀。

Was Stephen Timoshenko right about the Jewish scientists in Germany?
Abstract Stephen Timoshenko was the author of numerous textbooks on various aspects of applied mechanics, and through them contributed to its rapid development in the world. As always, the community is also interested in the personal side of the scientists. This paper is devoted to a single statement made by Stephen Timoshenko in his autobiographical book. Specifically, it concerns Timoshenko's at least partial “explanation” of the Holocaust that took place during WWII. Whereas Timoshenko's statement constituted, to the present writer, open antisemitism, it does not seem to disturb many researchers who continue to honor him in various ways. “Nonsense is nonsense, but the history of nonsense is scholarship,” according to Saul Lieberman. Hence the present article presents an investigation of Timoshenko's nonsensical and overly antisemitic statement. This author corresponded with a number of historians of science all repudiating Timoshenko's assertions. Most importantly, the correspondents shed additional vivid light on the Holocaust as experienced by Jewish scientists.

期刊介绍: ZAMM is one of the oldest journals in the field of applied mathematics and mechanics and is read by scientists all over the world. The aim and scope of ZAMM is the publication of new results and review articles and information on applied mathematics (mainly numerical mathematics and various applications of analysis, in particular numerical aspects of differential and integral equations), on the entire field of theoretical and applied mechanics (solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics). ZAMM is also open to essential contributions on mathematics in industrial applications.
