The sound figures were an oscillating metal plate that produced two-dimensional shapes in the sand when musical notes were played through it. Ernst Chladni, the German acoustician who discovered the phenomenon in 1789, exhibited it at public demonstrations around Europe. But despite the support of Napoleon himself, the sound figures could not be explained mathematically. So in these sound figures, F. W. J. Schelling found confirmation of dynamic physics and posited a Signatura rerum. August Schlegel built this claim into his lectures on art history and aesthetics, and Clemens Brentano celebrated the experiment in his poetry. Thus did philosophy and literature express the full significance of an insoluble problem in mechanical physics, illuminating the reciprocity of science and culture at the turn of the eighteenth century.

Signatura rerum:谢林、奥古斯特·施莱格尔和布伦塔诺的克拉尼的声音人物

声音人物是一块振动的金属板,当音符通过它演奏时,它会在沙子中产生二维形状。1789 年发现这一现象的德国声学家 Ernst Chladni 在欧洲各地的公开示威中展示了它。但尽管有拿破仑本人的支持,声音数字仍无法用数学方法解释。因此,在这些健全的数字中,FWJ Schelling 找到了动态物理学的确认,并提出了 Signatura rerum。奥古斯特·施莱格尔 (August Schlegel) 在他的艺术史和美学讲座中建立了这一主张,克莱门斯·布伦塔诺 (Clemens Brentano) 在他的诗歌中庆祝了这一实验。因此,哲学和文学表达了机械物理学中一个无法解决的问题的全部意义,阐明了 18 世纪之交科学与文化的相互关系。
