Resumen
Este artículo analiza la legitimación epistemológica de las matemáticas en la filosofía natural en el siglo XVII. En el Renacimiento se alegó que las matemáticas no cumplían con los criterios aristotélicos de cientificidad, ya que no explicaban las causas eficientes y finales. Así, sus críticos inspirados en la tradición aristotélica rechazaron los primeros intentos de matematizar la filosofía natural. Se examinan las condiciones epistemológicas implicadas en el debate sobre la cientificidad de las matemáticas y su pertinencia para la filosofía natural. Se hace un recorrido historiográfico de la matematización de la naturaleza para ofrecer nuevos elementos de ponderación respecto a una caracterización históricamente más contextual y filosóficamente más conceptual del surgimiento de la ciencia moderna.
