Abstract:

This article examines the development of the law of gravitation in the writings of Isaac Newton, Immanuel Kant and Jakob Friedrich Fries. Fries was a philosopher, mathematician and physicist who stood in the Kantian tradition, but who nevertheless had empiricist leanings. Whereas the development of the law of gravitation is well explored as regards Newton and Kant, the heuristic interpretation of the Kantian ‘fundamental forces’ carried out by Fries has not yet received the scholarly attention it deserves. In the following, I will elaborate on how Newton, Kant and Fries developed the law of gravitation and how it was incorporated in their natural philosophies.
