Emergence and Expansion of Preclassical Mechanics

The first section is concerned with the emergence and expansion of a form of mechanical knowledge defined by us as pre-classical mechanics. The definition purports to the period roughly between the 15th and the 17th century, before classical mechanics was formulated as a coherent and comprehensive mechanical theory in the sequel of Newton's work.

Prima sectiune se refera la aparitia si extinderea unei forme de cunoastere mecanica definita de noi ca mecanica preclasica. Definitia pretinde perioadei intre secolele al XV-lea si al XVII-lea, inainte ca mecanica clasica sa fie formulata ca o teorie mecanica coerenta si cuprinzatoare in continuarea lucrarii lui Newton.
