FROM THE HISTORY OF PHYSICS. IN HONOR OF THE 300TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF M V LOMONOSOV
“Geniuses like this are very rare today...”
R. N. Shcherbakov
Abstract:
This paper gives insight into the context of how Lomonosov developed into a scientist and a physicist; reviews
his major achievements in physics; discusses his epistemological method, and explores the major reasons for his tragedy as a physicist. The role of the poetically interpreted knowledge and science of nature in Lomonosov's popularization activities is emphasized. The paper traces Lomonosov's route from science
and its popularization to the organization of higher and secondary education in Russia. How the perception of his genius changes with time is discussed.
