| Description | Physics in the eighteenth century became a science that would be fair to assign the epithet powerful. Allow an exact prediction of phenomena, description of the motion of celestial bodies, calculation and explanation of optical phenomena and many other applications. This is not only reflected in the contemporary ideas of people and scientists, but it had a very specific impacts in the military field. But we also constitute a prerequisite for the possible existence of the industrial revolution. Particularly in Western Europe, a new wave of interest in science as a social phenomenon interesting. Although the demonstration experiments and lectures frequently to have a 'real science far, a favorable climate for the development of physics. Historiographical work method combines diachronic approach in the sense that it builds individual sub-chapters and time-synchronous approach, which is located between these events from different periods relationships and connections. The paper is systematically working with primary sources to understand not only the physical content of individual works, but to offer readers a broader interpretive framework that physical discoveries put into context of cultural and technical. On the basis of these methods is the most important ideas in the understanding of equilibrium thermodynamics in the years 1824 -1902. It is thus actually capture the intellectual development of the entire classical thermodynamics historiographical method based on structuralism (Anales). |
