   Extractions: Isaac Barrow 's father, Thomas Barrow, was a linen draper by trade. Thomas married Ann, daughter of William Buggin of North Cray, Kent in 1624 and their son Isaac was born in 1630. Ann died in 1634 and Thomas sent Isaac to live with his grandfather. Perhaps there is truth in the frequently quoted saying that Isaac's father:- ... was heard to pray that should God decide to take one of his children, he could best spare Isaac. Thomas remarried within two years and it is suggested in [5] that this may have been an attempt to get his son back from his father, who was said to be spoiling young Isaac. Thomas planned for Isaac to become a scholar while still a child. He sent Isaac to Charterhouse and paid twice the regular fee to get special attention for Isaac. However Isaac did not receive this attention and acquired the reputation as a bully while his education suffered. When Thomas heard of this, he transferred Isaac to Felstead, Essex in 1640 where the headmaster had a reputation for strict discipline. Here Isaac made rapid progress, both in developing his character and in learning. At Felstead Barrow learnt Greek, Latin, Hebrew and logic in preparation for University. After he had been at Felstead for two years, Issac's father incurred loses of

Isaac Barrow was born in London in , and died at Cambridge in . He went to school first at Charterhouse (where he was so troublesome that his father was heard to pray that if it pleased God to take any of his children he could best spare Isaac), and subsequently to Felstead. He completed his education at Trinity College, Cambridge ; after taking his degree in 1648, he was elected to a fellowship in 1649; he then resided for a few years in college, but in 1655 he was driven out by the persecution of the Independents. He spent the next four years in the East of Europe, and after many adventures returned to England in 1659. He was ordained the next year, and appointed to the professorship of Greek at Cambridge. In 1662 he was made professor of geometry at Gresham College, and in 1663 was selected as the first occupier of the Lucasian chair at Cambridge. He resigned the latter to his pupil Newton in 1669, whose superior abilities he recognized and frankly acknowledged. For the remainder of his life he devoted himself to the study of divinity. He was appointed master of Trinity College in 1672, and held the post until his death.

Barrow desarrollo un método de determinación de tangentes que encierran aproximados métodos de cálculo, fue el primero en reconocer que la integración y la diferenciación son operaciones inversas. Al retornar a Inglaterra en 1660, tomó la orden de santidad y fue nombrado para realizar enseñanza de Griego, la cual anteriormente le había sido negada. Con la finalidad de aumentar sus ingresos que eran bajos enseñando griego aceptó el nombramiento para enseñar geometría en el colegio Gresham de Londres. Barrow pronto renuncia a la enseñanza de geometría para servir como el primer profesor lucraciano de matemáticas en Cambridge desde 1663 a 1669. Aunque la enseñanza tenía pocos deberes (Dictó conferencias una vez a la semana), Barrow trabajó más duro que lo necesario para comenzar con una serie de conferencias introductorias.

   Extractions: This entry contributed by Margherita Barile London mathematician, generally recognized as the founder of differential calculus His academic career in mathematics officially started in 1662 when he began lecturing geometry at the Gresham College in Cambridge. The year after he was elected Lucasian Professor. Previously he had taught Greek, and actually had devoted the first part of his youth to literary and theological studies. He was converted by the works of St. John Chrysostom and decided to become a priest. In his later years, he retired to ecclesiastical life, after passing his chair on to Newton , his student and collaborator. Barrow's lectures were published in three collections: Lectiones Mathematicae , on the foundations of mathematics, Lectiones Opticorum Phenomenon and Lectiones Opticae et Geometricae , which contained the principles of infinitesimal calculus There we find the "differential triangle," the first geometric description of what we nowadays call the slope of the tangent to a curve. Many of the ideas presented in this work appear in Newton's mathematics, like, e.g., the dynamic concept of curves and surfaces, which are regarded as the tracks produced by moving points and lines respectively. Undoubtedly, Newton and his teacher influenced each other through frequent conversations, and in the written works it is often hard to separate their ideas. Both share an equal merit in giving a general solution to the problem of curve rectification. Barrow was the first to give an explicit differential formula for the infinitesimal

   Extractions: From `A Short Account of the History of Mathematics' (4th edition, 1908) by W. W. Rouse Ball. Isaac Barrow He is described as ``low in stature, lean, and of a pale complexion,'' slovenly in his dress, and an inveterate smoker. He was noted for his strength and courage, and once when travelling in the East he saved the ship by his own prowess from capture by pirates. A ready and caustic wit made him a favourite of Charles II., and induced the courtiers to respect even if they did not appreciate him. He wrote with a sustained and somewhat stately eloquence, and with his blameless life and scrupulous conscientiousness was an impressive personage of the time. His earliest work was a complete edition of the Elements of Euclid, which he issued in Latin in 1655, and in English in 1660; in 1657 he published an edition of the Data . His lectures, delivered in 1664, 1665, and 1666, were published in 1683 under the title Lectiones Mathematicae ; these are mostly on the metaphysical basis for mathematical truths. His lectures for 1667 were published in the same year, and suggest the analysis by which Archimedes was led to his chief results. In 1669 he issued his Lectiones Opticae et Geometricae . It is said in the preface that Newton revised and corrected these lectures, adding matter of his own, but it seems probable from Newton's remarks in the fluxional controversy that the additions were confined to the parts which dealt with optics. This, which is his most important work in mathematics, was republished with a few minor alterations in 1674. In 1675 he published an edition with numerous comments of the first four books of the

    Extractions: Barrow, Isaac (16301677) Isaac Barrow was born in London and schooled at Trinity College, Cambridge. He completed degrees in 1649 and 1652 and became a lecturer at the college. His trans- lation of Euclid was a popular textbook during his era. Barrow left England for five years, traveling in Europe and Asia. During his travels his interests in mathematics grew. When he returned to England, he became professor of geometry and later the first Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge. Barrow was known for combining works of others, such as Descartes Wallis , and Gregory , and making mathematical ideas and results fit together in a unified system. Barrow successfully applied his geometry and calculus to optics, although his work in this area was minor compared to Newton's work, which followed. Barrow gave up his Lucasian professorship in favor of Newton in 1669.

    Extractions: The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus When we think of the geometric origins of derivatives and integrals, tangent lines to curves and areas, respectively, there is no clue that would suggest the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. To Eudoxus (ca. 370 B.C. Euclid (ca. 300 B.C. Archimedes B.C. ), Apollonius (ca. 262190 B.C. ), and all of the other mathematicians of classical antiquity, tangent lines quadratures , and cubatures had no special status among their other geometric problems and theorems. To these mathematicians, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus probably would have been a great surprise. When algebra was first used to describe curves in the analytic geometry of René Descartes (15961650) and Pierre Fermat (16011665), we can see the first faint glimmers of a connection between tangents and quadratures. In his study of the "higher parabolas," y = kx n , where k is constant and n = 2, 3, 4, …, Fermat derived the formula y/ k, for the subtangent at any point on the curve. From this, and from our standpoint today, it would have been easy to find the formula for the derivative; but to Fermat, nx n- was not the goal. Some time in the 1640s, Fermat showed that the area between any one of the higher parabolas and the horizontal axis, for
