  3. The Impact of the Scientific Revolution Ch. 14 part 2

  4. Today’s Standard Describe the attempts made by scientists to reconcile religion and the “new science” How did the Catholic Church react to the developments of the Scientific Revolution and what was the result of this? Essential Question

  5. Witch Hunts Discuss the following: What do these documents tell us about the witch-hunts? What role do you think the Scientific Revolution had in bringing an end to witch-hunts and superstition?

  6. Continuing Superstition • belief in magic and the occult persisted through the end of the 17th c. • witch-hunts: 70,000–100,000 put to death, 1400–1700; 80% women • village society: magic helped cope with natural disasters and disabilities • Christian clergy: practiced high magic (Eucharist, Penance, Confession, exorcism)

  7. Astronomical instrument use to illustrate the theories of Copernicus, etc… Illustrates great masters of the day, some of whom drew on ancient mythological themes, others biblical scenes and others contemporary landscapes. Intended to contrast with the symbols of modern knowledge displayed elsewhere in the room. Science and the Arts Explain the relationship between science and the Arts in this painting, by Adriaen Stalbent. What role do women and religion play in this painting? Globe and volumes of maps that allow observers to trace the explorations of the Americas and other parts of the non-European world.

  8. New Science and Religion Three major issues: • Certain scientific theories and discoveries conflicted with Scripture. • Who resolves such disputes: religious authorities or natural philosophers? • New science’s apparent replacement of spiritually significant universe with purely material one.

  9. Science and Religion • Catholic Inquisition places Copernicus’s On the Revolution of the Heavenly Spheres on Index of Prohibited Books, 1616 • Galileo Incident: Roman Catholic authorities condemn Galileo, 1633—under house arrest for last nine years of his life • Roman Catholic Church formally admits errors of biblical interpretation in Galileo’s case, 1992

  10. Attempts to Reconcile Reason and Faith • Blaise Pascal (1623–1662), French mathematician • opposed both dogmatism and skepticism • erroneous belief in God is a safer bet than erroneous unbelief • Francis Bacon • two books of divine revelation: the Bible and nature • since both books share the same author, they must be compatible • Economics: technological and economic innovation seen as part of a divine plan—man is to understand world and then put it into productive rational use
