Aristotelian and Platonic Conceptions of Explanationientific revolution of the 17th century was the replacement of the aristotelian concept of science by a platonic one, this will be meant in a sense different from the traditional theses presented by Cassirer and Koyré, which sound the same. My thesis will be that they missed both the essence of thefloodgate 发表于 2025-3-23 14:52:24

Introductionence. This is why Copernicus is the real initiator of the revolution: He is a platonist who sees the aim of astronomy as the discovery of hidden reality, a real saving of the phaenomena, yet declares that he has also discovered a principle of certainty, according to which his theory of planetary ordMosaic 发表于 2025-3-24 01:56:47
The Copernican Harmonyturning existing astronomy into a harmonic system, (b) this harmony consists in a rigidity towards changes in some parameters in the system, (c) these parameters are the “order and magnitude of the spheres,” (d) and lastly, by implication, all this was lacking in the existing astronomy.

Newton’s Logic of Space and Timeed on the presupposition of the actuality of the infinite series. I shall argue now that a parallel step is taken in his physics in regard to the existence of its fundamental entities, namely, space, time, force and its laws of motion. All of these are potential things, yet their full actuality is t补角 发表于 2025-3-24 21:12:51
Modern Newtonian Historiography and the Puzzle of Newton’s Absolute Spacesequently motion. My concern in this chapter will be mainly the nature of a special kind of motion, i.e., the inertial, since it is at this point that the informative character of Newton’s physics is most strikingly exhibited. I’ll argue that there is no motion (or rest) in his physics which is uncaPRE 发表于 2025-3-25 02:42:52
