Extractions: Claude Mydorge trained as a lawyer but really had little need to work as he came from a wealthy family. He was able to devote most of his life to research in mathematics without having the problems of earning a salary. Mydorge studied geometry and physics. He published books on optics and conic sections , for example De sectionibus conicis contains a wealth of new examples and ideas which were used by many later geometers. His work simplifies many of Apollonius 's proofs. He was interested in mathematical recreations and edited Mydorge's book was published in 1630 and later books, such as one by Denis Henrion (1659) were often based on it. Mydorge left an unpublished manuscript of over 1000 geometric problems and their solutions. It was not only mathematical problems which interested Mydorge. He also worked on light and refraction in particular. His interest in optics also fitted in with an interest in making astronomical observations. He was a close friend of

Father Occupation: Lawyer, Government Official Mydorge belonged to one of France's richest and most illustrious families. His father was conseiller at the Parlement of Paris and Judge of the Grand Chambre. His mother was the sister of the "président Chrétien de Lamoignon." 3. Nationality Birth: French Career: French Death: French 4. Education Schooling: No University 5. Religion Affiliation: Catholic 6. Scientific Disciplines Primary: Mathematics, Optics Subordinate: Astronomy His work in geometry was directed to the study of conic sections. His work on the subject, first published in two volumes in 1631 and enlarged to four in 1639, was reprinted several times under the title De sectionibus conicis. His works on conic sections contain hundreds of problems published for the first time, as well as a multitude of ingenious and original methods that later geometers frequently used. According to Baillet, he succeeded Viète as the premier mathematician of his day. He studied the properties and nature of light and refraction, and he studied vision.

Although nothing explicit is said, the phrase "simple farmers" says to me that they were poor. What he himself said about his education certainly says the same thing. 3.

He left his family at an unknown age. He embraced the study of mathematics at the age of fourteen. He travelled to various regions of the country earning a living from private lessons. He continued to educate himself by attending classes at the universities in the regions he visited. In Bordeaux where he met Fermat and took on François du Verdus as a pupil he may have attended the university. 5. Religion

Extractions: Claude Hardy was a practising lawyer and took part in the weekly meetings of Roberval Mersenne and others. He was also a friend of Gassendi and Mydorge . Hardy introduced Mydorge to Descartes Hardy, in his capacity as a lawyer, worked for the Parliament in Paris from 1625. A year later he was certainly attached to the court of justice in Paris as a counsellor. In 1630 he published Examen and in 1638 Refutation . These works dealt with the problem of the duplication of the cube and Hardy pointed out a fallacy which had arisen regarding this problem. Hardy took part in many of the mathematical discussions and arguments of the time but his greatest contribution was his knowledge of Arabic and other languages which enabled him to make important Latin translations of Euclid 's Data and other books. Despite the fact that he introduced Mydorge to Descartes , Hardy supported Descartes when the two had a dispute over Fermat 's method of maxima and minima, a forerunner to the calculus.

Extractions: Book Description Four parts in one. 8vo. Contemporary vellum. First edition of Mydorge's first work. It contains hundreds of curious problems published for the first time, many of which are accompanied by wonderful woodcut illustrations. Among the numerous subjects are secrets and magic in geometry, mechanics, optics, chemistry, perspective and fireworks. According to Zeitlinger, this was a reconstruction, with great improvements, of the of Jean Leurechon, first published anonymously in 1624. It undoubtely served as the model for Ozman's Need a paper copy? Use the Printable Version
