Technology & the Scientific Revolution Today’s LEQ: How did the Scientific Revolution advance the modern world? How did it conflict with the Catholic Church?
The Scientific Revolution “The Renaissance enabled a scientific revolution which let scholars look at the world in a different light. Religion, superstition, and fear were replaced by reason and knowledge.” - Scientist, J.D. Bernal
A key difference… The Renaissance looked to the past. The Scientific Revolution looked to the future.
The Scientific Method New approach to science – Observations and experimentation “...sciences are vain and full of errors that are not born of experience, the mother of all certainty.” - Leonardo da Vinci
Old Views vs. New Views Old View: Aristotle’s geocentric theory: earth is center of universe New View: Copernicus’s heliocentric theory: sun is center of universe
Many Resisted… Aristotle wrong?!?! Contradicted the church
New Views Continued Brahe - planets revolve around sun & rotation is oval (creating day and night) Galileo – telescope; theory that there is an entire universe Newton – theories on gravity & laws of motion
New Views Continued Shift from alchemy to chemistry Advances in medicine New approaches to science – Observation and experimentation Internal Use Only
Modern Philosophy Backed by reason and knowledge “I think therefore I am.” - Descartes
“New Ideas” Heliocentric universe New medicine Scientific Method Gravity Finding truths - “I think therefore I am”
