THE COSMOLOGY OF GIORDANO BRUNO - PAUL-HENRI MICHEL




DISPONÍVEL PARA VENDA

LIVRO ESGOTADO !

Although not an astronomer in any technical sense, Giordano Bruno has a place in the history of cosmology because of his outspoken if confused espousal of Copernicanism, and his imaginative pantheistic application of certain aspects of atomism to the cosmos as a whole. He was the first to affirm that stars are suns, and he asserted an infinity of suns accompanied by an infinity of inhabited earths within an infinite Universe.
 Bruno was baptized Filippo, but at the age of 15 or 16 he joined the Dominican order and took the name Giordano. He became a priest in the early 1570s and spent some years in Rome teaching the “art of memory,” of which he was a master, to students who included Pope Pius V.
 After being accused of heresy, Bruno left Rome in 1576 and began 15 years of wandering, spending a year or two in each place he visited and everywhere encountering (or positively inspiring)
