Detalhes do produto

Explore the captivating life of Blaise Pascal and his journey through miracles and reason. Available on Ubuy Angola - a Angola.
  • Few people have had as many influences on as many different fields as true Renaissance man Blaise Pascal. At once a mathematician, philosopher, theologian, physicist, and engineer, Pascal’s discoveries, experiments, and theories helped usher in a modern world of scientific thought and methodology. In this singular book on this singular genius, distinguished scholar Mary Ann Caws explores the rich contributions of this extraordinary thinker, interweaving his writings and discoveries with an account of his life and career and the wider intellectual world of his time.             Caws takes us back to Pascal’s youth, when he was a child prodigy first engaging mathematics through the works of mathematicians such as Father Mersenne. She describes his early scientific experiments and his construction of mechanical calculating machines; she looks at his correspondence with important thinkers such as René Descartes and Pierre de Fermat; she surveys his many inventions, such as the first means of public transportation in Paris; and she considers his later religious exaltations in works such as the “Memorial.” Along the way, Caws examines Pascal’s various modes of writing—whether he is arguing with the strict puritanical modes of church politics, assuming the personality of a naïve provincial trying to understand the Jesuitical approach, offering pithy aphorisms in the Pensées, or meditating on thinking about thinking itself.             Altogether, this book lays side by side many aspects of Pascal’s life and work that are seldom found in a single volume: his religious motivations and faith, his scientific passions, and his practical savvy. The result is a comprehensive but easily approachable account of a fascinating and influential figure.

Modern Renaissance Editorial Review

"Blaise Pascal: Miracles and Reason Renaissance Lives Hardcover" is a biography of Blaise Pascal written by Mary Ann Caws. It is a short, analytic biography that offers a surface perspective on Pascal's life and work, according to some reviewers. The author's love and admiration for Pascal is clear but the book does not help the reader get to know Pascal or come to the same appreciation. The 22-page preface is described as over-the-top and not very beneficial. However, the book offers an engaging, faithfull, and impressionistic perspective on Pascal's troubled soul, faith, and life.
