 Daniela Helbig and Maureen O’Malley
‘Ghost signs’ are a real phenomenon but also a useful metaphor. We frame our 
discussion of the origins of the history and philosophy of science (HPS) in 
Sydney within this metaphor. Our particular focus is Ilse Rosenthal-Schneider, 
a physicist, philosopher and German refugee who, in the late 1930s, brought to 
Sydney pressing concerns about the relationship between science, society and 
philosophy. There are several grounds for believing that she initiated the 
study of HPS on this campus. We explore both the social and intellectual 
contexts of her HPS contributions, then place Rosenthal-Schneider’s story in 
the wider context of the history of women in science and philosophy so as to 
raise questions about why she and her ideas have become almost invisible to 
current understanding of the origins of HPS.
