Further Information

Daniel A. Di Liscia studied philosophy at the University of Buenos Aires with a specialization in the history of late medieval and early modern philosophy (1989). With support first from the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) and later from the Antorchas Foundation, he completed his Ph. D. at the LMU München (summa cum laude). After three years of collaboration at the Munich Copernicus Edition, he came to the Kepler-Kommission in the Bavarian Academy of Sciences, where he worked for six years, the final four as “Wissenschaftlicher Leiter”.

Research Interests

Daniel A. Di Liscia’s research interest is the history of philosophy and science from late medieval to early modern times. His focus lies on two branches of research: the history of Renaissance cosmology, especially in connection with Nicolaus Copernicus and Johannes Kepler, and the tradition of the “calculators”. The background for both subjects is the same: the late Aristotelian tradition in logic, epistemology and, above all, natural philosophy.

  1. Late medieval history of logic and philosophy of language: theory of “consequentiae”; syllogistic and concept of deduction in medieval logic and mathematics. Late medieval physics: quantification of motion and qualities within the Aristotelian framework, nature and motion, continuum and infinite; latitude of forms and “configurations doctrine” (Jacob of Naples, Nicole Oresme, Biagio Pelacani da Parma). Humanistic criticism of calculators (Juan Luis Vives). The quantification of Aristotelian metaphysics and the perfection of species (Nicholas of Amsterdam, John of Wesel, Jacques Legrand).
  2. Early modern cosmology and history of science: Gravity in Copernicus and Kepler; Kepler on pneumatics; mathematics and metrology in Kepler; the late Aristotelian Tradition and the new cosmology; Renaissance epistemology (the “middle sciences”, regressus demonstrativus and the kind of scientific proofs). Joachim Jungius and late Aristotelianism. Logic-mathematical approaches in traditional philosophical and scientific works (Richard Swineshead, Jean Buridan, Nicole Oresme, Albert of Saxony; Galileo Galilei).

 

Further Activities in Research and Teaching

Daniel A. Di Liscia remains active as a referee for several journals and international research foundations. In 2007, he was appointed associate member of the “Centro de Estudios Filosóficos Eugenio Pucciarelli (Sección Lógica y Filosofía de la Ciencia)” of the Academia Nacional de Ciencias de Buenos Aires. In 2008, he co-organised at Strasbourg (together with E. Mehl, Université Marc Bloch) the international conference: “Physique, métaphysique, physique céleste Autour de l’Astronomia Nova de Johannes Kepler (1609)”. During 2009-2010, he participated in the Project EEDA (“Une Époque en Édite une Autre”) at the University of Nantes, France (Direction of the Project by Prof. E. Barbin and Prof. G. Stenger). He is collaborating member of Instituto de Filosofia, in the area of Medieval and Early Modern Philosophy of the University of Porto and participates in the project located at the same institute "From Data to Wisdom". Di Liscia is member of the international advisory board of the CNERU (Cordoba Near East Research Unit). During May 2018 he organised the international conference at the MCMP "Quantifying Aristotle. The Impact, Spread and Decline of the Calculatores Tradition".
Di Liscia has presented papers at universities across Europe and the Americas, during 2017/19 in: Buenos Aires, Rosario, La Plata, Chieti, Córdoba (Spain), München, Paris, Porto, Tours and Wien.
Since the very beginning of his career, Di Liscia has connected his research work with teaching activities. As a lecturer, he has led courses regularly since 2003 on Renaissance cosmology and various other topics concerning the tradition of the “calculatores” at the Renaissance Institute of the LMU and at MCMP. In addition, Di Liscia was a visiting professor at the University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines and Paris/Diderot (France) and at the Universities of Tres de Febrero and Buenos Aires (Argentina). Thanks to ERASMUS-support he could present the main results of his research work at the university of Chieti/Pescara and at the university of Córdoba (Spain). He regularly holds a reading group of classical texts on Ancient and Medieval philosophy, currently on Aristotle’s Metaphysics (https://www.mcmp.philosophie.uni-muenchen.de/events/reading/index.html).
After the project “From a logic-mathematical standpoint: Richard Swineshead and the calculatores tradition”, (funded by LMU Munich’s Institutional Strategy within the framework of the German Excellence Initiative), Di Liscia started his project “Die Geometrisierung der Metaphysik im Spätmittelalter: Jacobus de Neapoli und die Tradition De perfectione specierum” (funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft). In his current project “Integration und Transformation in der spätmittelalterlichen Naturphilosophie: Jacques Legrands aristotelisches Compendium utriusque philosophie”, he is preparing an edition this late medieval text on natural philosophy and metaphysics (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/282682744). In 2017 he published a paper about it, “The Subject Matter of Physics and Metaphysics in Jacques Legrand's Compendium utriusque philosophie, in: Revista Española de Filosofía Medieval, 24 (2017), pp. 247-263. Two further contributions on the Compendium have since appeared, one included in the special of the Revista Española de Filosofía, Special Issue N° 29/1 (2022) which will contain the papers presented at conference The Concept of Motion in Late Medieval Philosophy.
He is co-editor together with Sabine Rommevaux-Tani of the volume Vol. 3.1: Histoire de l’astronomie et de la physique I. Antiquité et Moyen-Âge of the major work to be edited under the supervision of Jean-Claude Dupont (Iste, Encyclopédie des Sciences, Domaine “Historie des Sciences” https://www.istegroup.com/fr/sciences/ and https://www.istegroup.com/fr/domain/histoire-des-sciences-et-des-techniques/).
