Résumé

For example, early in the 20th century, when empirical methods were replacing speculative discussions often derived from earlier thinkers in educational circles, the picture of educational depth that was beginning to prevail was one that derived from successful empirical models in natural science, especially the natural science of the 19th century. The intellectual thought of the West has not seen anything like this agreement since the early Mediaeval universities when study of the natural world was also considered the study of a text written by God to be interpreted by his believers, a world full of signs and portents, the setting aside of which led to the development of natural philosophy in the 16th and 17th centuries.
