本文探讨了近代早期化学中元素和原理的物理性和有形性的不同概念。通过追溯自然哲学和微粒思想在几位物理学家和化学家(包括托马斯·埃拉斯托斯、安德烈亚斯·利巴维乌斯、丹尼尔·森纳特和安东·冈瑟·比利希)中的发展,本文找到了一个主要在德国发展起来的学术传统,它直接挑战了主要的帕拉塞尔苏斯学派和法国教科书传统的作者对物质的共同理解。同样,不可分割的元素或原则的概念被证明是从帕拉塞尔苏斯和佩特鲁斯Severinus的想法发展而来的,而在学术传统中的作者强调对亚里士多德的特定解释。文章最后指出,化学对物质成分的解释在整个17和18世纪都有重要影响,这进一步证明了化学中所谓的“成分革命”在18世纪之前就已经开始了。
Abstract This paper explores diverse conceptions of the physicality and tangibility of elements and principles in early modern chymistry. By tracing the development of natural philosophical and corpuscular ideas about material elements and principles among several physicans and chymists, including Thomas Erastus, Andreas Libavius, Daniel Sennert, and Anton Günther Billich, this article locates a learned tradition that developed predominantly in Germany, and which directly challenged a common understanding of matter held by major Paracelsians as well as authors from the French textbook tradition. Likewise, conceptions of incorporeal elements or principles are shown to have developed from the ideas of Paracelsus and Petrus Severinus, whereas authors in the learned tradition emphasised a particular interpretation of Aristotle. The article concludes by suggesting that chymical interpretations of material composition had an important influence throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and that this provides further evidence that the so-called “compositional revolution” in chemistry was well underway prior to the eighteenth century.
