The 20th of May 1869, Professor Emanuel Winge used a human heart as an exhibit at a meeting of The Medical Society in Christiania. This heart was later conserved and kept in the museum of the Institute of Pathology. Sixty years later, one of Winge's successors, Professor Francis Harbitz, used the very same heart, also at a meeting of The Medical Society. Harbitz had then confirmed Winge's hypothesis of 1869, that the endocarditis of this heart was due to a bacterial infection. This article contemplates the disparity between the "scientific gazes" of Winge and Harbitz, and why Harbitz was able to convert Winges hypothesis of 1869 into a scientific discovery in 1929.
1869年5月20日，伊曼纽尔·温格教授在克里斯蒂安尼亚（今奥斯陆）的医学协会会议上展示了一颗人类心脏。这颗心脏后来被保存下来，存放在病理研究所的博物馆里。六十年后，温格的继任者之一弗朗西斯·哈比茨教授在医学协会的一次会议上也使用了这颗心脏。哈比茨随后证实了温格1869年的假设，即这颗心脏的内膜炎是由细菌感染引起的。本文探讨了温格和哈比茨“科学视角”之间的差异，以及哈比茨为何能够在1929年将温格1869年的假设转化为一项科学发现。
