Beginning of the Modern World
“Modern” Globalization Phase of increasing
trade links and cultural exchange in 19th century
Columbian Exchange- widespread exchange of animal, plants, culture (slaves), communicable diseases and ideas between Eastern and Western hemispheres
Why explore?

other countries1. Based on the idea of mercantilism – the
power of a country is based on its wealth and the way to achieving wealth for a country is to get gold and silver and to have a trade surplus
2. Spread Christianity3. Technological advancements made it
possible.

Revolutionary Thinking
The Renaissance and Reformation inspired people to challenge the accepted scientific views of ancient thinkers and the church
Geocentric theory widely accepted prior to this period
Scientific Revolution
What was the Scientific Revolution? Scholars/scientists questioned accepted
ideas about nature, earth and the universe
Old Science v. New Science Old Science based on religion and belief NEW SCIENCE based on math, logic, reason,
observation and data Inductive reasoning – observing and
understanding specific facts to develop a general theory
Scientific Revolution
Influences Renaissance
Education of the Classics Secularism Criticisms of the Catholic Church
Exploration Drive to better understand tides, weather,
winds, currents, Foreign technology-astrolabe
Scientific Revolution
New Discoveries Heliocentric Theory –sun-centered
universe Advancements in Medicine—vaccinations Scientific Instruments
Microscope Telescope
Law of Gravity Chemistry biology
Theories on the Universe 2nd C. AD- Ptolemy recorded the earth was
the center of the universe—Geocentric Theory
Scientific Revolution
Theories of the Universe 1548-Nicholas Copernicus challenges
Ptolemy’s geocentric theory and proves the Heliocentric Theory
Scientific Revolution
Theories of the Universe Johannes Kepler (1600s)—takes the
Heliocentric Theory and perfects it with the Laws of Planetary MotionOne law states that the planets orbit the
sun in elliptical orbits not circular orbits
Scientific Revolution
Scientific Revolution
Francis Bacon urged scientists to draw conclusions of the world based on their own observations
Rene Descartes believed that everything should be doubted until proven by reason “I think, therefore I am.”
Newton explains law of gravity through scientific method
Boyle describes the relationship between volume, pressure and temperature
Importance
This so-called revolution was important because scientists use these approaches today – it is from scientific reasoning that our lives are longer, healthier and filled with so much useful technological developments
Influenced others to study all aspects of society—government, religion, economics, education, etc.
