Galileo, Descartes, and Newton - founders of the language of physics
Original language description
Many of the outstanding discoveries in the history of physics were closely tied to fundamental linguistic innovations, which made them possible. There is an extensive literature discussing the scientific achievements of Galileo, Descartes, and Newton from various perspectives. The aim of the present paper is to contribute to these discussions with an analysis of the linguistic tools, by means of which these three authors made their scientific discoveries. We will focus on the main linguistic innovationscontained in their works. Thus we will discuss not only the contributions of Galileo, Descartes, and Newton to the development of physics, but we will analyze also the linguistic tools by means of which they formulated these contributions. More specifically, in galileo we will focus on the innovations that he introduced into the experimental method and thus fundamentally changed the way how the expressions of the language of physics are related to reality.
