Description

Explore the evolution of motion through this scholarly work from the Routledge Radical Orthodoxy series. In our modern post-Newtonian world, motion is often viewed through a narrow lens, limited to the physical movement of bodies in space and the laws of physics. However, this book challenges that view by revealing how the concept was understood before the scientific revolution. Prior to modern shifts, motion was a much broader and more mysterious category that applied to moral movements as well as physical ones. Simon Oliver provides fresh interpretations of the history of western thought, looking at how major thinkers handled these concepts. By examining the work of Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, and Newton, the text provides a deep look at how our understanding of change and movement has shifted over centuries. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history of philosophy, religion, and the intersection of science and theology. It offers a clear path to understanding how the definition of motion changed from a moral and metaphysical concept to a purely physical one.
