Astronomy - Astrology - Medicine

The subject of this edition of the annual 17 th Centruy Philosophy Conference are the connections of seventeenth-century philosophy with early modern science. ‘Science’ is understood in the historically relativized sense of the term, and thus not limited by the contemporary classification of scientific disciplines. The aim of the conference is to establish paradigmatic connections and show mutual inspirations or theoretical interactions between the philosophical thought of the 17th century and early modern scientific reflection, which was carried out in the fields of both mathematical and natural sciences - with an emphasis on the relationship between philosophy and astronomy, astrology and medicine.
