Many scholars, that wrote about the development of the chemist’s occupation in the context of the development of university education, like Joseph Ben-David, Bernard Henry Gustin, Erica Hickel, Ingunn Possehl, R. Steven Turner and Ulrike Köster, had created the impression that the emergence of the chemical occupation was the exclusive result of the work of Justus von Liebig (1803-1873). The broader social perspective was lacking. No reference was made to the interplay between events in this particular domain of work and knowledge and the development of the social division of labour as a whole. Homburg tries to fill this gap in the main body of his dissertation. Especially the short period between 1830 and 1850 marked a radical change in the organisation of education. Apart from the changes in the German educational system, a “veritable revolution of the laboratory” occurred. Especially the emergence of analytical chemistry caused the development of new laboratories, with smaller apparatuses, and the possibility to give laboratory instruction a more prominent place in chemical education.
