Abstract

This article was written to be presented at the Descartes’ International Colloquium: “Essays and Discourse on the Method” held at UNICAMP in 2017. In an introductory way, I discuss Descartes’ works that give the title to the event and then more in detail about one of these Essays: The Meteorology. In this perspective, I show how in this text Descartes is guided by the new principles of his Physics, in contrast to the Aristotelian principles of the tradition contemplated in the late Scholastic established in the book Comment.
