AP European History
Unit 4 – Scientific, Philosophical, and Political Developments
Topic 4.2
How does the gradual acceptance of heliocentrism during the Scientific Revolution parallel shifts in societal norms in other periods of European history?
It showcases a recurring trend of religious institutions preventing scientific progress across all eras.
It illustrates that society always quickly accepts new scientific theories without any controversy or debate.
It mirrors situations where innovative ideas initially met with resistance eventually gained acceptance as they became understood.
Heliocentrism was unique and had no parallels to other paradigm shifts in European history.
