The Aristotelian-medieval Picture of the World
The purpose of the work is to show the main features of the Aristotelian-medieval picture of the world. The author describes some key elements of this mosaic - natural philosophy, cosmology, astrology, humoral physiology, indicating that scholarly communities of that time were characterized by infallibilism, a universal method for evaluating theories, “intuition, learned by experience”, the dichotomy of the natural and the artificial, the rejection of experiments.
