Presenta una relectura de la Historia natural de Buffon a la luz de los conceptos de reversibilidad e irreversibilidad temporal. El objetivo es determinar hasta qué punto Buffon introduce en dicha obra una concepción transformista de las formas naturales. A tales efectos, se analizan los puntos principales de la historia natural clásica y de la doctrina de los gérmenes preformados. Posteriormente, se considera el uso de la variable temporal que realizaba Buffon. Se demuestra, a partir de este examen, que pese a su rechazo de la teoría preformista y del sistema escolar de clasificación, Buffon continúa utilizando categorías que remiten a una matriz temporal de carácter reversible.
This article presents a rereading of Buffon´s Natural History in the light of the concepts of temporal reversibility and irreversibility. The goal is to determine to what extent Buffon introduces a transformationist concept of natural forms in this work. To that effect, the main points of classical natural history and the doctrine of preformed germs are analyzed. Subsequently, Buffon´s use of the temporal variable is considered. This examination shows that despite his rejection of the theory of preformationism and the scholastic classification system, Buffon continued to use categories based on a reversible temporal matrix.
