MAPPING HISTORIOGRAPHIC TRENDS: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF THE INDIAN JOURNAL OF THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE
Abstract
This study conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of articles published in the Indian Journal of the History of Science (IJHS) to uncover and map historiographic trends within the field. By analyzing a substantial corpus of scholarly work, we identify key themes, patterns, and shifts in the historical study of science in India. Our analysis encompasses a range of bibliometric indicators, including publication trends, authorship patterns, citation networks, and keyword co-occurrence. Through this investigation, we aim to provide valuable insights into the evolving landscape of historical scholarship on science in India, shedding light on the intellectual trajectories that have shaped this interdisciplinary field.
