The Scientific Revolution and The Enlightenment
3
New Ways to Think About Old Things
  • A look back at the Renaissance What was the
    Renaissance again? What was the purpose?
    Humanism?
  • The Scientific Revolution, as well as the
    Enlightenment, were inspired by the Renaissance.
  • Questioned the Old Ideas by finding proof or
    using human reason to challenge prior ideas
  • The Scientific Method- Experimentation and
    Observation became critical components in proving
    X

4
Rene Descartes Francis Bacon
  • All they did was
  • Help in developing the scientific method.
  • Descartes emphasized the power of human reason
    with the idea that new knowledge should be made
    to fit existing traditional ideas.
  • I think therefore I am. Descartes
  • Bacon stressed the experimentation and
    observation tasks.

5
The Old View
  • Geocentric theory- The Earth was the center of
    the universe and everything revolved around
    IT.
  • Aristotle and others taught the geocentric
    theory.
  • The church taught that God put Earth at the
    center of the universe
  • You will begin to see why, some of the scientific
    pioneers during this era, werent looked upon too
    fondly

6
Copernicus
  • All he did was
  • Challenge the belief that the Earth was at the
    center of the universe.
  • Using math, he theorized that the universe was
    heliocentric- meaning centered around the sun.
  • He also believed that planets revolved around the
    sun rather than opposite.
  • Why do you believe that most people thought he
    was incorrect?

7
Galileo
  • All he did was
  • Provide further evidence to support Copernicus
    theory
  • How?
  • Observing the skies with the telescope (in which
    he constructed)
  • Many disapproved of Galileos findings, even
    threatening him with death.
  • To receive more of a lenient service, (to avoid
    death) Galileo recanted and was placed under
    house arrest where he spent the rest of his life

8
The Story of Galileo
  • Many people considered the sentencing of Galileo
    in 1633 to life imprisonment a great tragedy.
    Efforts to clear his name continued for centuries
    after his death. But as late as 1822, the
    Vatican still banned Galileos Dialogue
    Concerning Two Chief World Systems. The church
    gradually changed its views toward Galileo. A
    church commission reopened his case in 1983. In
    1992 Pope John Paul II declared that the church
    had wrongfully condemned Galileo.

9
Newton
  • All he did was
  • Build upon the knowledge of the previous two guys
  • Use math to prove the existence of force that
    keeps planets in their orbit
  • What is this force?
  • Correct, what Luke Skywalker uses ?
  • How about Gravity!
  • This force also makes objects fall toward Earth.
  • Eventually, Newton will establish laws depicting
    his theories

10
Newton-Nuggets (patent-pending ?)
  • Newton is the first to be credited with the
    development of the mathematical concept of
    calculus.
  • However, in Germany, a man by the name Gottfried
    von Leibniz did the same thing at presumably the
    same time.
  • Both accused each other of plagiarism.
  • It has been a long debate, but most historians
    believe they may have developed it at the same
    time, in different locations.
  • Gives new meaning to the right place at the
    right time

11
Discoveries in
Nugget To pass a scuba diving certification
test, divers must answer questions about how
Boyles law relates to safely ascending and
descending underwater.
  • Biology
  • Began identifying the human anatomy (Vesalius)
  • Development of magnifying lens
  • Descriptions of bacteria, blood, yeast, etc
  • Development of the term Cell (Hooke)
  • Chemistry
  • Robert Boyle- The Father of Modern Chemistry
    (1661)
  • Described matter as a cluster of tiny particles
  • His most significant Boyles Law
  • Describes how temperature, volume, and pressure
    affect gases.

12
Causes and Effects of the Scientific Revolution
  • Exploration and expansion of trade
  • Continuing study of ancient authorities
  • Development of the scientific method
  • Beginnings of modern science
  • Belief in progress and the power of reason
  • New view of the universe as a well-ordered system

13
The Enlightenment
  • The Age of Reason
  • Period in the 1700s
  • People rejected traditional ideas and supported
    belief in new innovative ways
  • A belief that logical thought can lead to truth-
    Rationalism
  • The Enlightenment introduced new ways of viewing
    authority, power, government, and law.

14
New Views on Government
15
Thomas Hobbes
  • In his book, Leviathan, he wrote
  • People are greedy and selfish.
  • Only a powerful government can create a peaceful,
    orderly society.
  • Strong believer in the government ideology,
    absolutism.
  • A government that rulers have complete authority
    over the government and the lives of people in
    their nations

Social Contract Through consent, people in the
society agree to give up some freedoms to
government leaders in exchange for peace, safety,
and order
16
John Locke
  • In his book, Two Treatises on Government, he
    wrote
  • All people were born equal with the natural
    rights Life, Liberty, and Property
  • Believed that people were naturally happy,
    tolerant, and reasonable.
  • If the government does not protect these rights,
    people have the right to overthrow it

17
Baron de Montesquieu
  • Powers of government should be separated into
    three branches Legislative, Executive, and
    Judicial.
  • These separations of power would prevent tyranny
    by creating a system of checks and balances

18
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
  • In his book, The Social Contract, he wrote
  • People are naturally good but are corrupted by
    the evils of society
  • (unequal distribution of land)
  • For a government to work, people must choose to
    give up their own interests for the common good.
  • Believed in in the will of the majority which he
    called the General Will
  • The majority then would always work for the
    common good for all.

19
Voltaire
  • Name Francois Marie Arouet de Voltaire
  • Voltaire attacked injustice wherever he saw it.
  • He used sharp wit and satire to criticize the
    French government and the Catholic Church.
  • His tongue often created enemies and also landed
    him in prison on several occassions.
  • His major complaints Both failed to permit
    religious and intellectual freedom

"I may not agree with what you say, but I will
defend to the death your right to say it."
20
The Whos Who Chart
  • Thomas Hobbes
  • People are greedy and selfish
  • Only a powerful government can create a peaceful,
    orderly society
  • Baron de Montesquieu
  • The powers of government should be separated into
    three branches
  • Each branch will keep the other branches from
    becoming too powerful.
  • John Locke
  • People have natural rights.
  • It is the duty of the government to protect these
    rights.
  • If the government fails to protect, then the
    people have the right to overthrow it.
  • Jean-Jacques Rousseau
  • In a perfect society, people both make and obey
    the laws.
  • What is good for everyone is more important than
    what is good for one person
  • Voltaire
  • Strong believer in Free Speech
  • Strong believer in religious toleration

Which do you agree with? Do you agree with
any? All of them?
21
More AccomplishmentsOf the Enlightenment Period
22
Diderot
  • Creator of the Encyclopedia
  • 35 volume work that explained new ideas about
    art, science, government, and religion.
  • Its purpose was to promote knowledge
  • How long did it take Diderot to complete?
  • 27 years!
  • The French government will try to stop
    publication, but the encyclopedia was too popular
    among the people
  • And to think that some of you dont want to go
    near one of those books ?

23
Mary Wollstonecraft
  • In her book, A Vindication of the Rights of
    Woman, she wrote
  • About demanding equal rights for women,
    especially in education.
  • Her main argument, If men and women had equal
    education, they would be equal in society.
  • Although Enlightenment thinkers questioned
    established beliefs, most left gender equality
    alone.
  • Wollstonecrafts views were extremely radical for
    the time (1792)

24
Adam Smith
  • In his book, The Wealth of Nations, he wrote
    about his analysis of
  • Economic systems
  • Smith argued the following
  • 1) Business activities should take place in a
    free market
  • 2) The government should not interfere with
    economics.
  • Anyone familiar with this term from 8th grade?
  • Laissez-Faire to leave alone
  • Smiths main argument- the economy would be
    stronger if the market forces of supply and
    demand were allowed to work freely

41
Revolutions
  • Economics, Technology, and Social

42
Agrarian Revolution To Industrial Revolution
  • Usage of animal fertilizers
  • Ways to improve food production
  • Seed drilling
  • These lead to
  • Population Explosion
  • People eat better
  • Women give birth to healthier babies
  • Better medical care
  • Leads to longer life span
  • More people leads to more demand for goods
  • More demand means people needed to produce the
    goods faster
  • Thus we have the industrial revolution

43
Industrial Revolution
44
Industrial Revolution
  • Revolution?
  • A change from the current way of doing something
    to a completely new system
  • Industry?
  • Mass production and sale of goods.
  • Industrial Revolution?
  • The means of production shifted from standard
    hand tools and human and animal power to complex
    machines and steam power
  • When? Where? Why?
  • When 1750
  • Where Britain
  • Why Agrarian Revolution

45
  • Agrarian Revolution
  • More people living longer demanded more food
    which bettered techniques
  • Could feed more people at lower prices with less
    labor
  • More People Means
  • More clothing needed
  • More Labor
  • Changes in Textile Production
  • Cottage Industry
  • Couldnt keep up with growing demand
  • A New Method Needed
  • Textile Production
  • Inventions -
  • Flying Shuttle made weaving faster Created
    Shortages of yarn
  • Spinning jenny allowed faster yarn production
    Weaving now slower than yarn production
  • New loom powered by water caught up to yarn
    production
  • Textile mills had to be set up along rivers
  • More efficient to bring labor to a factory on a
    river
  • New towns located around factories

CONNECTION!

  • Who Cares?!
  • Global Economy

49
  • What is it? The means of production of goods
    shifted from standard hand tools to complex
    machines and from human and animal power to steam
    power.
  • Steam Engines powered by?
  • When did it begin in the world?
  • It began around 1750 in Britain, but would spread
    throughout Europe.
  • When did it reach the U.S.? By the end of the
    19th century.
  • Causes of the I.R.
  • Agrarian Revolution (2 slides ago) leads to a
    need to produce goods faster
  • Geography (Globalization)
  • Effects of the I.R.
  • Factory system leads to mass production.
  • Growing middle class
  • Urbanization
  • Working conditions Child labor
  • Changing social roles
  • Rising standards of living improved
    transportation
  • Global Impact of the I.R.
