Resumo: |
The aimy of this study is to understand the concept of fermentation contained in treaties of the doctor and natural philosopher, seventeenth century, Thomas Willis. Therefore, we outlined in the first chapter, some of the central aspects of the Willis biography such as institutional places and social circles and studies attended in the English Civil War context. In the second chapter, we analyze the set of scientific sources that influenced our author. Our intention was to understand how such sources formed the thinking and the work of Willis, above all, that was the object of our last chapter: Diatribae duae medicophilosophicae - quarum prior agit of fermentatione. In the third chapter, we analyze the first five chapters of the treaty, in which Willis provides the basis and justification of fermentation processes. In this regard, we note that the "doctrine of fermentation" - considered by essential Willis for the understanding of all the transformations throughout the "sublunar world" - was, in fact, fundamental to their studies in a continuous manner and since the beginning of your career |
