| 520 | _aThe explanation of tides remained a significant theoretical challenge in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, whether to fill a gap in Aristotelian physics or to contribute further arguments to the debate on the new world system. One thesis frequently put forward was that tides are the effect of a submarine breathing of the Earth, which can be compared to a chemical explanation for the formation of spirits that cause the waters to rise. Stoic physics provides key elements for this model. | ||
