Camilla Erculiani (1 gen 1530 anni – 1 gen 1584 anni)

Descrizione:

Italian apothecary, writer, natural philosopher, and a women's advocate during the early modern period. This "self-described pharmacist" published a book, in the form of letter-essays, about her views on topics of science and natural philosophy.[2][3] Erculiani's Lettre di philosophia naturale or Letters on Natural Philosophy was published in 1584. Due to some of the unconventional theories presented in her work, she was put on trial by the Roman Inquisition on charges of suspected heresy- for the "blurring of boundaries between natural philosophy and theology."[4] Although the trial records are lost, it is speculated that Erculiani was likely pardoned.[5]
