This text will examine the shift from a geometrical to a dynamical perspective in astronomical thought, highlighting key developments and thinkers.</p> <p><strong>Overview</strong> Greek astronomy was characterized by its reliance on geometric models, which described celestial motions as uniform and circular. However, this paradigm was eventually supplanted by Newton&rsquo;s introduction of gravitation, marking a significant departure from the earlier emphasis on geometry. Later, Einstein&rsquo;s General Theory of Relativity returned to some aspects of the geometrical perspective while rejecting others.</p>
