18. Yüzyılda Newtonculuk Karşıtlığı: İskoçya Örneği

Yıl 2021, Sayı: 19, 123 - 135, 30.06.2021

Öz

Aydınlanma döneminin dinden bağımsız bir alan olarak algılanması çeşitli boyutlarda
tartışılmış bir meseledir. Halihazırda yapılması gereken, ulusal ve seküler Aydınlanma
paradigmalarını analiz etmek ve bu paradigmaların altında yatan bazı varsayımları
tartışmaktır. Bu yazıda, bu tartışma onsekizinci yüzyıl İskoçya örneğine odaklanarak
gerçekleştirilecektir. İskoç Aydınlanmasını Newtonculuk ile ilişkisi bağlamında ele
alacağım ve Newtonculuğun değişik çevrelerce nasıl algılandığını açıklayarak,
Newtonculuğa yönelik yaklaşımların hem bilimsel hem de dini gündemlerin belirlediği
çeşitli açılardan geldiğini tartışacağım. Newtonculuğun belirli yönlerine yönelik tepkiler
ve yaklaşımlar üzerine olan bu çalışma, Onsekizinci yüzyıldaki fikirler, gruplar ve
bireyler arasındaki entelektüel ilişkinin karmaşık doğasını ortaya çıkarmasına yardımcı
olacaktır.
