"The New Science" is commonly associated with the work of the Italian philosopher and poet Giambattista Vico. His major work, titled "Scienza Nuova" (translated as "The New Science"), was first published in 1725 and later revised in several editions. In this book, Vico presents a theory of history and culture, arguing that human societies develop in predictable stages and that history is shaped by human actions and ideas, rather than by divine intervention or natural laws.
