Sans raison particulière mais toujours utile de le rappeler : au Moyen Âge, tout le monde sait que la terre est ronde ! On la représente ainsi, on l'enseigne, etc. Ce n'est qu'au XVIIIe siècle qu'on invente l'idée de médiévaux idiots croyant à la terre plate... !

O meu livro apoia-se nesta matéria no trabalho de @HenriqueLeito6 e @fmaltaromeiras, que trabalham no dept. de Hist. e Filosofia da Ciência da U. de Lisboa, único em Portugal e em risco de fechar. @falexandre_72 vais deixar que se feche o que tem excelência, ficando os medíocres?

É uma péssima ideia acabar com o departamento de História e Filosofia da Ciência da Universidade de Lisboa. Trabalham aí algumas das pessoas pelas quais tenho o maior respeito intelectual, como é o caso do @HenriqueLeito6 e do @fmaltaromeiras. Representa o melhor que Portugal tem
The Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon plans to close the Department of #History and #Philosophy of #Science – the only one in Portugal. Historian Nuno Castel-Branco from the University of Oxford explains why this is not a wise idea at all. https://t.co/xTJvP8J9Uw
