| Titolo: | Humanism and chemistry : the spread of Georgius Agricola's metallurgical writings / Marco Beretta. |
| Abstract: | The essay examines the influence of Agricola's mineralogical and metallurgical work on 17th and 18th century chemistry. The reason of such influence are both theoretical and experimental. Agricola's "humanistic" reform of technical nomenclature and his criticism of alchemy marked the emergence of a new way of conceiving the disciplinary status of chemistry. Similarly, the importance of Agricola's chemical analysis of inorganic substances and of the introduction of new instruments and technical devices represents one of the principal sources of 18th century chemists, namely Stahl and Lavoisier. The combination of these two aspects contributed to establish the success of Agricola's work among the most innovative early modern chemists |
