A Journey to the Centre of the Earth: Cosmology and the Centrobaric Theory from Antiquity to the Renaissance
This chapter aims to throw light on the ways in which the concept of center of gravity interacted with some of the cosmological ideas conceived in antiquity and in particular with the idea of the figure of earth as presented in Aristotle’s De coelo. Developing earlier research, this study provides a better understanding of the scientific discussion that took place during the crucial first stage in the development of modern science. The origins and earliest stages in the development of the concept of center of gravity in Ancient Greece was briefly studied by Duhem, whose cursory analysis of a few texts by Pappus and Archimedes was undertaken with the specific purpose of showing the supposed faults inherent in Greek statics. The chapter will begin with a discussion of these Greek sources and attempt to follow the intellectual recovery of this key concept in the Renaissance and the first decades of the seventeenth century, relying in particular on a thorough study of textbooks used for teaching astronomy in Jesuit schools, for example, Commentaries on De sphera of Sacrobosco
A Tripartite Post-Recession Rebalancing
In this latest Advance & Rutgers Report, entitled “A Tripartite Post-Recession Rebalancing,” Dean James W. Hughes and Professor Joseph J. Seneca deliver an incisive assessment of the current market conditions and obstacles in the path of our economic recovery. They offer a statistical cautionary tale that the private and public sector need to hear and acknowledge in order for the economy to make continued progress.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 7, November 2011, in Advance & Rutgers Report
