Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book looks at the development of scientific thought in ancient Greece and explores how early physical ideas were rooted in mythological beliefs and language. It begins with a study of the mythological precursors to physical science, focusing on the ways in which early Greek cosmogoniesâ"myths of creationâ"were also early attempts to explain the workings of the natural world. These myths are shown to provide the raw material from which scientific concepts would later be constructed. The author then traces the gradual transformation of these mythological elements into the physical ideas of early Greek thinkers, including the development of the concept of matter. By positioning the birth of science within its mythological and linguistic context, this book sheds new light on the profound influence that language and myth have on the formation of scientific thought.
