Abstract

He was a French physician and natural philosopher, a member of the Académie française, and one of the founders of the Académie des sciences. He is known for his reinterpretation, from a metaphysical and physiological point of view, of pneumatology, on which he founded his theses on psychology, optics, and physiognomics. His thought attempted a mediation between scholastic conceptualism and the science of physics that was taking off at that time, sometimes also using elements originating in Renaissance Neoplatonism.
