BiographyBasson was born in the area of Metz in Lorraine around 1573 and studied at the Jesuit academy of Pont-à-Mousson, where he took philosophy courses under Pierre Sinson. Where he obtained his doctorate in medicine is unknown and we have no sign of medical activity during his life. At some stage, but before 1610, he converted to Calvinism and got married in Lausanne, Switzerland. From 1611 to 1625, he taught rhetoric at the small Calvinist academy of Die-en-Dauphiné.[4] In 1620, he had to appear before the board of theologians at Geneva in order to defend his anti-Aristotelian treatise, whose printing the censors had stopped. After tensions with the academic senate at Die had been rising for some years, he left the town in anger in 1625. Where he went and when he died is unknown.[1] PhilosophyBasson's Philosophiae naturalis adversus Aristotelem libri XII (Twelve books[6] of natural philosophy against Aristoteles) of 1621, was strongly against the conception of natural philosophy as based on Aristotle; it attacked in particular the concept of continuous magnitude.[1] Ivor Leclerc considers this work the fullest expression of the “new conception of nature” that had arisen in Europe by the 1620s, at the hands of Francis Bacon, Galileo Galilei, David van Goorle, and Daniel Sennert.[2] For Basson, atoms may combine as mixta, but they are not in a void, but rather in an ether. They are moved by it; in this suggestion Basson contradicts the teleology of the Jesuit view of causation. The theory of his time on the classical elements tended towards a version with five principles, but Basson rejected earth and water in his book, leaving his elemental theory as three Paracelsian principles.[3][4] He opposed, though, the theory of "compounds", as admitted by Sennert, in the sense of mixtures having properties that were not properties of their atomistic constituents.[5] Some contemporaries—both adversaries[12] and sympathizers[13]—have set up lists of the proponents of new ideas during the early seventeenth century. All those "novateurs" keenly felt the deficiencies of Aristotelianism and the oppressiveness of tradition. Most of them were young (Galileo is a notable exception) and had a youthful and aggressive voice. There is the place of Basson. Work
