Abstract

This paper addresses the development of experiments and experimental practices in the process of transformation from a unique and innovative research experience towards established knowledge. In this respect, some strategies of stabilization will be discussed in an exemplary manner, using examples from 18th century research in the field of electricity. Moreover, some educational implications of this process will also be discussed.
