5 pages in length. Science and philosophy do not make the best bedfellows, however, when the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 set off a series of natural disasters, the two very distinct and often contrary entities came together as a means by which to offer explanation. Nearly leveled to the ground almost two-and-a-half centuries ago, Lisbon was thought by
many theologians to be paying for a significant spiritual debt, while the scientific community took a decidedly more logical approach to explanation. Among those who spoke for the philosophical community, Kant, Voltaire and Rousseau were instrumental in engaging in esoteric rationalization; Tobias Mayer, German mathematician Johann Friedrich Jacobi, Johann Gottlob Krüger and John Michell all took the side of irrefutable objective reasoning. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
