Ep. 8: Galileo, feat. Ian Billig

38 min14 juni 2022

In this episode, I chat with Ian Billig about Galileo Galilei and the development of Renaissance science.  Ian, skilled in physical sciences and mathematics, as well as a self-taught classicist, walks us through the development of classical natural philosophy through Galileo, and how this translates into our concept of modern science. 

Who was Galileo and what did his work entail? What was the state of science during the Renaissance? How do we distinguish natural philosophy from science? What are the consequences of Galileo on modernity? All of these questions are answered, and more!
