Abstract

Natural History covered all the knowledge about nature throughout the classical antiquity and the Middle Ages. Divorce between the natural sciences and the humanities happened during the Enlightenment and Romantic period. During the Classic period of evolution of scientific knowledge natural history knowledge was firmly established as an important part of Earth science. Thinking of ties between historic process and changes in nature prompted researches to step outside the Earth. Works of Chizhevsky represent natural history knowledge as a necessary step of systematic understanding of natural and historic processes where the system conceived as a coherent bond integrating such components, as Cosmos, the Sun and planets of the Solar system, the Earth with its spheres, the mankind as a psychosphere and the man with his individual and world history.
