N2  - The remote transmission of contagious diseases in Girolamo Fracastoro’s De Contagione.Thanks to how Girolamo Fracastoro defines the different types of contagion in his book De contagione, et contagiosis morbis et eorum curatione, libri tres (1546), and his defense of the “seeds of contagion” (seedbed) as the cause of contagious diseases, he is considered today one parent of the modern epidemiology and microbiology. One of the crucial problems in this book is to explain the remote transmission of the contagious diseases refuting the etiologic use of the occult qualities. The aim of this study is to investigate the philosophical background of the problem and draw the conclusions that his solution had for medicine and for science in general
