This article aims to show that, in what concerns science, the Middle Ages were far from obscure and marked by lack scientific progress. The event of modernity did not entail a break with science at the end of the Middle Ages, but something very diferent. To keep on asserting the existence of a break represents reiterating without any real foundations.
