10.2.1 Compare the major ideas of philosophers and their effects on the democratic revolutions in England, the United States, France, and Latin America.

• List circumstances that led to the

• Scientific Revolution.• • Summarize the development

of the• heliocentric theory.• • Describe the scientific

method and• explain Newton’s law of

gravity.• • Describe the importance of

the• scientific method in different

fields.

• How did the Scientific Revolution change how people thought about the world?

• In the mid-1500s, scientists began to question accepted

beliefs and make new theories based on experimentation.

Such questioning led to the development

of the scientific method still in use

today.

Wrote The Devine Comedy in Italian

instead of Latin.

He showed that Italian was just as

good as Latin.

The Devine Comedy was about an

imaginary journey through hell and

heaven.

• He wrote The Prince, a book telling kings how they should rule.

• He said rulers had to be ruthless to keep order.

In the mid 1500s, scientists began to question accepted beliefs and make new theories based on experimentation

Why it matters now: -theories and

developments still used today (scientific method)

1300-1600= time of great change in Europe

Renaissance inspires curiosity

Reformation challenges accepted ways of thinking

Before 1500 scholars generally decided what was true or false by referring to an ancient Greek or Roman author or to the Bible.

Beginning in the mid-1500s, a few scholars published works that challenged the ideas of the ancient thinkers and the church.

As these thinkers developed new theories they changed science and European thought.

The Scientific Revolution was a new way of thinking about the natural world through observation and questioning.

How did people find out if things were true or false before the

Scientific Revolution?

Greek or Roman authors

Bible

Middle Ages

Geocentric Theory=EARTH was located at the center of the universe

Moon, sun, and planets moved perfectly circular paths around the earth

COMMON SENSE?

Nicolas Copernicus was a Polish astronomer, which is someone who studies they sky and universe.

Prior to Copernicus it was thought that the earth was the center of the universe and that planets revolved around the earth.

Copernicus believed that instead of the earth being the center it was the sun. This sun centered theory was known as the Heliocentric Theory.

Copernicus was scared to release his findings because they contradicted religious views.

He finally published his findings the last year of his life (1543).

He laid the foundation for astronomers to come.

What is the difference between the geocentric and heliocentric theory?

Geocentric- Earth is center

Heliocentric- Sun is center

Danish astronomer

Recorded movements of the

planets

• Brahe’s assistant

• Continued his work and concluded that certain mathematical laws govern planetary motion

• Planets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits

• Proved Copernicus was right

•Galileo Galilei was an Italian scientist.•He made his own telescope to observe and note the heavens.•Galileo’s observations, as well as his laws of motion supported Copernicus’ theories.•In 1616 the Catholic Church warned Galileo not to defend the ideas of Copernicus.•In 1632 Galileo published a book that clearly supported Copernicus’ theories.

Galileo was then summoned by the Pope to Rome. Under the threat of torture he read aloud a signed confession, agreeing that the ideas of Copernicus were false.

Galileo was never a free man again. He lived under house arrest until his death.

In 1992 the Catholic Church finally acknowledge Galileo had been right

Why does the Catholic Church disapprove of Galileo’s findings?

It goes against the teachings of the church

• Empiricism- experimental method

• Instead of reasoning from abstract theories, scientists are urged to experiment and then draw conclusions

• Two most notable empiricists are Francis Bacon and Rene Descartes

Francis Bacon was an English writer and scientist.

He attacked medieval scholars who relied heavily on the work of Aristotle.

Bacon urged scientists to experiment and draw conclusions.

Rene Descartes was French Mathematician.

Unlike Bacon Descartes relied on mathematics and logic.

Believe everything should be doubted until proven by reason

The only thing that was certain was that he existed- “I think, therefore I am”

“I think, therefore I am”

Isaac Newton was a great English scientist.

Newton studied math and physics at Cambridge University.

He explained gravity through the motion of the planets and ordinary things.

Newton also concluded that motion of objects followed mathematic principles.

What is Isaac Newton famous for?

Law of Gravity

During the Middle Ages, European doctors had accepted as fact the writings of an ancient Greek physician named Galen. Galen had never dissected the body of a human being. Instead, he had studied the anatomy of pigs and other animals. Galen assumed that human anatomy was the same.

A physician named Andreas Vesalius proved Galen’s assumptions wrong. Vesalius dissected human corpses and published his observations.

His book contained detailed drawings of human organs, bones and muscles.

In the late1700s Edward Jenner created the first vaccine which prevented smallpox.

Robert Boyle is known as the founder of modern chemistry.

Boyle challenged Aristotle’s theory that world consisted of four elements- earth, air, fire, & water.

He believed that matter was made up of smaller particles that joined together in different ways. He also went on to explain how the volume, temperature, and pressure of gas effect each other.

Microscope-observed bacteria, blood cells

Mercury Barometer- Predicting weather

Thermometer- showed water freezing

These thinkers helped to usher in a

movement that challenged the age

old relationship between a

government and its people, and

eventually changed forever the political

landscape in numerous societies.
