Post-Copernican Science in Galileo’s Italy.Pietro Daniel Omodeo - 2017 - Perspectives on Science 25 (4):393-410.details The early dissemination of Copernicus' work and theories is an intricate and multilayered history. The reception of De revolutionibus orbium coelestium, which was the first early modern work in mathematical astronomy introducing a heliocentric planetary theory, was not purely technical. Rather, the cultural debates surrounding it were affected by physical, philosophical, ethical, and theological concerns from its inception. Georg Joachim Rheticus, who authored the first report on Copernicus' achievement, deemed it appropriate to put a call for independence of spirit on (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
Aristotle, Copernicus, Bruno: centrality, the principle of movement and the extension of the Universe.Miguel A. Granada - 2004 - Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A 35 (1):91-114.details This paper studies the different conceptions of both centrality and the principle or starting point of motion in the Universe held by Aristotle and later on by Copernicanism until Kepler and Bruno. According to Aristotle, the true centre of the Universe is the sphere of the fixed stars. This is also the starting point of motion. From this point of view, the diurnal motion is the fundamental one. Our analysis gives pride of place to De caelo II, 10, a chapter (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 4 citations
Mersenne's critique of Giordano Bruno's conception of the relation between God and the universe: A reappraisal.Miguel A. Granada - 2010 - Perspectives on Science 18 (1):pp. 26-49.details We re-examine Mersenne's critique of Giordano Bruno concerning the question of the extension of the universe and the plurality of worlds as well as that of universal animation. For this, it is necessary to distinguish, especially in the examination of the first question, the strictly cosmological problem from its metaphysical and theological foundation in which the relation between God and the universe is resolved. Mersenne's critique fundamentally concerns this second side of our problem, according to his conviction that Bruno repeats (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
Subverting Aristotelianism through Aristotle.Valentina Zaffino - forthcoming - International Journal of the Platonic Tradition:1-18.details This paper examines whether Giordano Bruno’s philosophy should be considered pantheist or immanentist—two philosophies that scholars regard as partly equivalent. However, this paper distinguishes them and argues that Bruno either identified the whole of nature with God or recognized a primary principle that is immanent, yet distinguishable, from matter. In terms of Bruno’s interpretation of the Aristotelian notions of form and matter, the difference between an immanentist view and a pantheist one lies in the role that form (or act) assumes (...)
