Revised Version of Paper Published by ACERHP 1996, 'Philosophia Scientia', cahiers special.
The merits of Poincare as one of the greatest mathematicians of all times are globally acknowledged, but the value of his conventionalist theory of science is still greatly underestimated, and his contributions to physics and its philosophy have unjustly fallen into oblivion. The aim of the present paper is to stress the importance of Poincare to physical theory and the theory of physics by hailing him as the principal figure in the interplay between classical philosophy and modern cosmology.
