The_New_Science

The New Science The new science had a major impact on the way writers represented the world. It influenced the way the writers represented the world by changing the way the world was looked at. It gave a more scientific view as opposed to the religious view that they had heard in the past. The new science represented new theories and inventions that tried to make the world better, and open the minds of people to new ideas and theories. In 1649 a club at Oxford refused to take the word of their forefathers for how the natural world worked. The club became known as the Royal Society and was granted a charter in 1662 by Charles the II. In their first decade they made many advances by finding new explanations of heat, cold, light, a new pocket watch, and a new account of the universe. The group was made up of men with many different religious, political, and social backgrounds. Some clergymen and politicians however, felt the group was a threat to religion and social hierarchy by determining the truths of the worlds through human investigation rather than by Christian revelation. The society answered by saying that they were “intent upon serving new, world, science, writers, work, way, things, theories, society, natural, knowledge, about, view, upon, society’s, represented, philosophy, observations, objects, never, microscope, light, influenced, ideas, first, felt, experimental, cavendish, book, best, word, views, useful, two, time, through
