Resumo: We give a overview of the main areas in theoretical physics, with emphasis on their relation to Lagrangian formalism in classical mechanics. This review covers classical mechanics; the road from classical mechanics to Schrodinger's quantum mechanics; electromagnetism, special and general relativity, and (very briefly) gauge field theory and the Higgs mechanism. We shun mathematical rigor in favor of a straightforward presentation.

Este sumário cobre: mecânica clássica, o caminho da mecânica clássica à mecânica quântica de Schrödinger, o eletromagnetismo, relativade restrita e geral, e, rapidamente, teorias de gauge, inclusive 0 mecanismo de Higgs. Deixamos de lado o rigor matemático em favor de urna apresentação mais simples.Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC2009-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/principia/article/view/1808-1711.2009v13n2p19510.5007/1808-1711.2009v13n2p195Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 13 No. 2 (2009); 195-232Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 13 Núm. 2 (2009); 195-232Principia: an international journal of epistemology; v. 13 n. 2 (2009); 195-2321808-17111414-4247reponame:Principia (Florianópolis.
