This essay adopts the concept of trading zones first developed for the history of science by Peter Galison and redefines it for the early modern period. The term "trading zones" is used to mean arenas in which substantive and reciprocal communication occurred between individuals who were artisanally trained and learned (university-trained) individuals. Such trading zones proliferated in the sixteenth century. They tended to arise in certain kinds of places and not in others, but their existence must be determined empirically. The author's work on trading zones differs from the ideas of Edgar Zilsel, who emphasized the influence of artisans on the scientific revolution. In contrast, in this essay, the mutual influence of artisans and the learned on each other is stressed, and translation is used as a modality that was important to communication within trading zones.
本文采用了彼得·加利森最初为科学史所提出的“交易区”概念，并将其重新定义用于近代早期。“交易区”一词用于指代这样一些场所，在其中，接受过工匠训练的人和有学识的人（受过大学教育的人）之间进行了实质性的双向交流。此类交易区在16世纪大量涌现。它们往往出现在某些特定类型的地方，而非其他地方，但其存在必须通过实证来确定。作者关于交易区的研究不同于埃德加·齐尔塞尔的观点，齐尔塞尔强调工匠对科学革命的影响。相比之下，本文强调工匠和有学识的人之间的相互影响，并将翻译视为对交易区内交流至关重要的一种方式。
