      <dc:description>In this essay, I will scrutinize the differences between Galileo’s and Huygens’s demonstrations&#xd;
of free fall, which can be found respectively in the Discorsi and the Horologium,&#xd;
from a mathematical, representational and methodological perspective. I argue that more can&#xd;
be learnt from such an analysis than the thesis that Huygens re-styled Galilean mechanics which&#xd;
is a communis opinio. I shall argue that the differences in their approach on free fall highlight&#xd;
a significantly different mathematical and methodological outlook.</dc:description>
