Rationalism is a philosophical movement which gathered momentum during the Age of Reason of the XIIIX. The major rationalist figures were Leibniz, Spinoza, Descartes. Rationalism is any view appealing to intellectual and valid arguments from intuited propositions. It relies on the idea that reality has a rational structure in that all aspects of it can be grasped through mathematical and logical principles, and not simply through sensory experience.

Empiricism is the theory that human knowledge comes predominantly from experiences gathered through the five senses. In empiricism, concepts are spoken from the experiences. As a philosophical theory, empiricism attempts to explain how humans acquire knowledge and conceptual understanding. Some important philosophers commonly associated with empiricism include Plato, Aristotle, George Berkeley, Thomas Aquinas, Francis Bacon, and Thomas Hobbes.

Scientifics identify Thales as the starting point of Western philosophy.

"The influence of Thales toward the understanding of Nature is not in his explanations, but the fact that he was the first to ask questions about things as they really are and not wondering about the mythical origin of the world."

His most relevant contribution was that he was the first person to describe natural phenomenoms without reference to the gods of mythology.
