This is the result from a study about The Caracas's University history, analyzing Pbro Dr. Baltasar de los Reyes Marrero's case, who was a Philosophy Professor in 1788-1789. It also shows the crisis of paradigms, featured by the Scholastic and decaying Thomism, and the emergent paradigm of the scientific method found in Newton's Physics. At the same, it makes comparative analysis with the illustrated mentality of New Granada.

Palabras clave : paradigm; educational mentality; university history.
