Bibliography. 330 $aThis monograph details the entire scientific thought of an influential natural philosopher whose contributions, unfortunately, have become obscured by the pages of history. Readers will discover an important thinker: Burchard de Volder. He was instrumental in founding the first experimental cabinet at a European University in 1675. The author goes beyond the familiar image of De Volder as a forerunner of Newtonianism in Continental Europe. He consults neglected materials, including handwritten sources, and takes into account new historiographical categories. His investigation maps the thought of an author who did not sit with an univocal philosophical school, but critically dealt with all the ?major? philosophers and scientists of his age: from Descartes to Newton, via Spinoza, Boyle, Huygens, Bernoulli, and Leibniz. It explores the way De Volder?s un-systematic thought used, rejected, and re-shaped their theories and approaches. In addition, the title includes transcriptions of De Volder's teaching materials: disputations, dictations, and notes. Insightful analysis combined with a trove of primary source material will help readers gain a new perspective on a thinker so far mostly ignored by scholars. They will find a thoughtful figure who engaged with early modern science and developed a place that fostered experimental philosophy. 410 0$aStudies in History and Philosophy of Science,$x0929-6425 ;$v51 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aHistory 606 $aPhilosophy and science 606 $aScience?Philosophy 606 $aScience?History 606 $aHistory of Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E15000 606 $aHistory of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000 606 $aPhilosophy of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000 606 $aPhilosophical and Historical Foundations of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E49000 606 $aScience, Humanities and Social Sciences, multidisciplinary$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/A11007 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy and science. 615 0$aScience?Philosophy. 615 0$aScience?History. 615 14$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aPhilosophical and Historical Foundations of Science. 615 24$aScience, Humanities and Social Sciences, multidisciplinary. 676 $a501 700 $aStrazzoni$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0865604 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910357849703321 996 $aBurchard de Volder and the Age of the Scientific Revolution$91931842 997 $aUNINA
