HISTORICAL ANTECEDENTS IN WHICH SOCIAL CONSIDERATIONS CHANGED THE

COURSE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

INTRODUCTION
An antecedent is described as a precursor to the unfolding of life. Historical
backgrounds in science and technology are therefore influences which paved for
advanced and sophisticated advancements in science and technology that are
present today. The development of science during ancient , middle ages and
modern ages will provide more information on changes that led to the
development of science and technology.
COURSE OUTCOMES
After the completion of the lesson on Historical Antecedent on the development
of Science and Technology , the students should be able to:
 discuss the events that took place during the ancient, middle and modern
ages that led changed to the course of science and technology
 recognize the works of several scientists in the development of science and
technology.

COURSE MATERIALS
IN THE WORLD: ANCIENT, MIDDLE AND MODERN AGES
ANCIENT TIME – ancient history covers the period 3000BC -AD 500.
MIDDLE AGES – began around 476 A.D may span roughly 1,000 years ending
between 1400 and 1450.
MODERN AGES – It is also referred to as Modernity, is the post Medieval area,
beginning 1500 to present, wide span of time marked in part by technological
innovations, urbanization, scientific discoveries and globalization.
The first Inklings of Science (From Ancient Times to 606 B.C)
EGYPTIANS
*Egyptians medicine was trial and error
 Egyptians doctors learned that if you covered an open wound with moldy
bread, the wound heal quickly and clearly
 Modern science tells us that certain bread molds produce penicillin, a
chemical that kills germs that infect germs.
 Egyptian doctors gave a seeds of poppy to relieve the patient’s pain

 The study showed that Poppy seeds contain both morphine and codeine
which are excellent pain-relieving drugs and are used today/
 Egyptians medicine became the most respected form of medicine

Papyrus – an ancient form of paper , made from a plant of the same name
 As early as 3.000BC , Egyptian formed of paper named as Papyrus.
Papyrus is a thick type of paper made from the pith of the papyrus palnt ,
the Cyperus papyrus . Papyrus can also refer to a document written on
sheets of papyrus joined together side by side and rolled into a scroll an
early form of book.
 The invention of the ancient form of paper revolutionized the way
information was transmitted from person to generation easily done
compared to clay tablets or smooth rocks been used by Egyptians,
Sumerians and other races/.
Other cultures

- Mesopotamians were making pottery using the first known potter’s wheel
Horse drawn chariots were being used.

_ 1000 BC , the Chinese were using compasses to aids themselves in their

Travels.
The Science begins to Emerge ( 600 BC to 500 A.D)
THE GREEKS
As far as historians can tell . the first true scientists were the Ancient Greeks
 Thales studied the heavens and tried to develop a unifying terms that
explain the movement of the heavenly bodies (the planets and the stars)
He predicted certain planetary event , he predicted the short term
disappearance of the sun
 The prediction he made is actually what we called today is a solar
eclipse, an event in which the moon moves between the earth and the
sun, mostly blocking the sun from view.

 Anaximander was interested in the study of life. He was the first scientist
who concluded that all life began in the sea and some sort of a fish. His
idea was later resurrected by other scientists , most notably Charles
Darwin and is today called evolution,

 Anaximenes however, believed that all things were constructed of air

since what he knew that air was the most basic substance in nature.
>>His ideas led to the introduction of the Greeks concept on
that things in nature is made by single substance ATOMS/
  Leucippus a Greek scientist who lived up to 150 years further developed
the concepts of Atoms that all matter is composed of little unit known as
atoms, he was named as the Father of Atomic Theory
 Democritus believed that all matter was similar to sand. Even though a
piece of wood appears to be solid, it is in fact made up of little individual
particles which he called it atoms. Democritus was not well as accepted in
his time, but later scientists utilized his ideas and modified them.

Two Novel Greek Scientists were recognized

 Aristotle
The father of the life sciences who wrote volumes of works on many things.
Including Philosophy , mathematics, logics and physics.
He was the first to make a large scale attempt with the classification of
animal and plants. Although Aristotle is noted to contribute large studies n
science not all the ideas were without flaw . One was his idea on
spontaneous generation, he believed that living things spontaneously
formed from nonliving things.
 Archimedes
He was one of the scientists who demonstrated how closely science and
mathematics. He was best known for his works on fluid. He was the first to
show how fluid may float or not in liquid,
 THE PROGRESS OF SCIENCE STALLS FOR A WHILE ( 500AD to 1000 (A.D )

 The Roman Empire had a great deal of influence throughout the world.
Rome disliked science much, did not mind inventions especially those that
made work productive, but a little use for the explaining the world around
us. As a result the real science was actively discouraged at most part of the
world.

 Alchemy is one of the best examples in which science been recognized in

this era. The Alchemists were the most wanted to find a means by which
lead could be transformed into gold. The alchemists began mixing and
recording , many interested things were observed , they mixed mixtures
and did the process in trial and error . They never tried to use their
observations to conclude about natural works, instead they were content
to just write their observations and move to the next experiment searching
for the next substance they could make.
 Science thrives on the free exchange of ideas from one scientist to another
, this put another road block for the science progress. Many historians
refer to this period as the Dark Ages. The progress in science depends on
scientists, government and culture. Still the progress in science not quite
observed, due to Romans remained active in discouraging science . The
Roman empire preferred to concentrate on inventions, the crumbling
government caused trade and communications to become more difficult .
scientific progress slowed even more.
 Both Arabs and Chinese during this time period were involved in making
careful studies of the heavens. They made observations that were much
more detailed and precise than those of the Greek Scientists. For example
> Chinese records from 1054 A. D include detailed observations of a
phenomenon that Chinese scientist called a guest star in the heavens,
They recorded in 1054 that a star that had not been seen before suddenly
appeared in a certain constellation.
 >> Modern scientists have been able to use those observations to
determine that the Chinese had seen a supernova, which is actually the
explosion of a star. The observations were so detailed that modern
scientists were able to look at the same part of the night sky and when they
did , they found a cloud of dust and gas, called a nebula. Based on these
facts , modern scientists now believe that nebula is formed by the
explosion of the star.

 ROBERT GROSSETTESTE
He was a bishop in the Roman Catholic in the early 1200s A.D
He proposed the idea that the secrets of the natural world could be leared
by discovering the laws that God had set in motion.
He wanted to explain why things happened the way they did.
HE WAS THE FATHER OF SCIENTIFIC METHOD , because he was the first to
thoroughly use and explain

THE RENAISSANCE The GOLDEN AGE OF SCIENCE (1500 AD to 1600 A.D)

 NICOLAUS COPERNICUS
 Copernicus believed Ptolemy’s view of the universe was wrong
 Copernicus placed the sun at the center of everything and assumed
that the planets (including the Earth) traveled around the sun. This
views was called the heliocentric system or Copernican System in honor
of Copernicus. The Heliocentric model is posted below.
 ANDREAS VESALIUS
 He published a Book on 1543, the book contains the detailed part of the
Human Body, The organs were clearly illustrated especially the muscles
and bones. This book led to knowing how the medicine s taught.
 BLAIZE PASCAL

 He spent an enormous time in studying the air and liquids

 He demonstrated that the air we breathe exerts pressure on everything
“ now we called it as ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE
 He demonstrated the PASCAL LAW
 The science behind
the law allowed us to develop hydraulic lifts, like the lift a mechanic uses
to raise a car so he can get underneath i

ERA OF NEWTON ( 1660 A.D to 1735 A.)

Newton wrote most of his revolutionary work in three volume – The Principia

 The First Volume , laid down his three laws of motion,

The Law of Inertia, Law of Acceleration and Law of Interaction
(refer to the posted image below the Three Laws of Motion
 The Second Volume of the Principia
Newton built on the work of Pascual and added many details to the
understanding of the motion of fluids
 The Third volume
Laid down his universal law of gravitation
Newton used detailed experiments and observations to show that
gravity was the cause of both effects.
The same gravity that attract objects to the earth (making them fall)also
keeps the planets in their orbits around the sun,
Newton also developed detailed mathematical equations and still
considered accurate to this day.
The first law also called as Law of Inertia states that a object continues in its state of rest or
of uniform motion unless compelled to cahnge the state by an external force.
The second law of motion states that if a net force acts on an object , it
will cause acceleration of the object, the law addresses the cause and
effect relationship between force and motion. F=ma

The Third Law of motion

States that when two bodies attract , they apply forces to one
another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction

also known as The Law of action and reaction

 ROBERT BOYLE
 The founder of modern chemistry contemporary of Newton
 He did many experiments with gas , like Boyle’s Law
 Anton van Leeuwenhoek
 The Father of microscopy, invented the First microscope where he was
able to examine the different microorganisms
THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION ( 1735 A.D-1820 A.D)

 THE age of Enlightenment Period , was a intellectual movement developed

mainly in France, Britain and Germany which advocated freedom,
democracy and reason as the primary values of society.
 Utmost importance of increasing efficiency of transportation,
communication, and production
 Industrialization took place with greater risk in human heath food safety
and environment.
 The scientific community should critically analyze the works of the previous
scientists since their studies were based on the data and results from the
former scientists.
 Increased scientific knowledge , led to the invention of many devices that
turned hours of manual labor into just a few minutes of work, The changed
led to making of so many inventions and this mark the period in history .

The BIRTH OF INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTIONS

 CAROLUS LINNAEUS
 His works on classification marked the beginning of the
Enlightenment .because it revolutionized the study of living things.
 The basic classification scheme proposed by Linnaeus is still used today
the scientific name consists of genus and species
Carolus Linnaeus = Father of Modern Classification “The Binomial System -The
Scientific Name: genus and species

Man scientific name : Homo sapiens Homo is the genus, sapiens wise

 ANTOINE LAVOISER
 The father of modern chemistry , he was the instrument of renaming
oxygen , the gas which combine with fuel to form combustion
 He was the first to analyze chemical reactions in a systematic way, and
he was the first to realize that matter cannot be destroyed or created,
can be transformed to another form. This is known as the Law of Mass
Conservation .
 He was also the first to properly explain combustion which is the
process burning,.
Antoine Lavoisier Father of Modern Chemistry

He disproved the Phlogiston Theory , he renamed the dephlogisticated air

oxygen, when he realized that oxygen was the part of air that the oxygen was
the part of air that combines with substances as they burn the process is
combustion , Lavoisier work on this made him Father of Modern Chemistry
THE REST OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY(1820 A.D to 1900

 LOUIS PASTEUR
 He destroyed the idea of spontaneous generation
 He made great advances in the study of bacteria and the likr
 He demonstrated experimentally that fermented beverages resulted
from the action of living yeast ( transforming glucose into ethanol
 He concluded that fermentation is vital process, he defined it as
respiration without air (Anaerobic respiration,)
 In his discovery of microbes were responsible for souring alcohol ,came
up the process of pasteurization where bacteria are destroyed by
heating beverages and then allowing them to cool. His work in germ
theory also led him and his team created vaccination on anthrax
His experiment on Pasteurization contributed to the improvement of
science.
  He developed process of Pasteurization , the process of fermentation in

making wine, vinegar etc

Louis Pasteur - Father of Bacteriology

 GREGOR MENDEL
 He was a Augustinian monk. Father of Genetics
 He devotedly develop much of his life in the study of reproduction.
 The entire field of modern genetics which studies how leads are passed
on from parents to offspring is based on his work.
 Gregor Mendel -Father of Heredity

 MICHAEL FARADAY
It in this period in History in which science developed a much better
understanding of electricity and magnetism
 Faraday’s experiments and ideas about electricity earned him the title of
The electrical giant
 JAMES CLERK MAXWELL
 He is known as the founder of modern Physics , he contributed on the
development of the mathematical equations that showed Faraday was
right that electricity and magnetism are both different aspects of the
same phenomenon now called electromagnetism.

 JAMES JOULE
 He determined that like matter, energy cannot be created or destroyed.
It can only change forms,.
 This now known as Law of Thermodynamics , the guiding principle in the
study of energy,
 THE MODERN SCIENCE ( 1900 A.D. TO THE PRESENT)

 MAX PLANCK
 He proposed an idea that matter exists in tiny packets called atoms,
energy exists in tiny packets which he called as quanta.
You can give one packet of energy to an object, or you can give two
packets of energy to an object . However you cannot give an object any
amount of energy in between one and two packets.
 With his lot of evidence for his ideas, this led to the acceptance of the
scientific community the QUANTUM MECHANICS
 ALBERT EINSTEIN
 Einstein used Plank’s idea of energy quanta to explain a problem called
the photoelectric effect could not be explained by Newton’s laws of
motion but could be easily explained by Planck ideas about the energy
quanta.
 NEIL BOHR
 Bohr developed the Bohr Model . This model of the atom is based on
solid mathematics and it required the assumption that energy comes on
small packets
 Using the Bohr model many of the mysteries of the atom were revealed
