Resumen

Nicolas Lmery (1645-1715), a leading French chemist of the second half of the seventeenth century, is considered to have written little but taught much and very well to highly qualified students, and of having popularised Chemistry in France and Europe. Lémery brought French chemical teaching out of the Paracelsian tradition into the Cartesian and atomistic natural philosophy. Although Lémery did not develop any rigorous theories of matter he explained chemical reactions in terms of particle shape and movement, the same as Jean-Baptiste Sénac did.
