Middle Ages: Scholasticism was the dominant theological-philosophical current of medieval thought, after the patristic of late antiquity, and was based on the coordination of faith and reason, which in any case always implied the clear submission of reason to faith (Philosophia ancilla theologiae - philosophy is a slave of theology-). But it is also a method of intellectual work: every thought had to be subject to the principle of authority (Magister dixit -the Master said it-), and teaching could be limited in principle to the repetition or gloss of the ancient texts, and above all of the Bible, the main source of knowledge, because it represents the divine Revelation; In spite of all this, scholasticism encouraged speculation and reasoning, since it meant submitting to a rigid logical framework and a schematic structure of the discourse that had to be exposed to refutations and prepare defenses.

Francis Bacon established with his Novum Organum the experimental method as the basis of scientific research, laying the foundations of empiricism. For his part, René Descartes led philosophy towards rationalism, with his famous "I think, therefore I am"
