    Barrow, Isaac (1630-1677)

    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

    Barrow, Isaac
    British mathematician, theologian, and classicist. His Lectiones geometricae 1670 contains the essence of the theory of calculus, which was later expanded by Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz.
    Barrow was born in London and studied at Cambridge, where he was professor of mathematics 1663-69. Isaac Newton attended his lectures and was inspired by Barrow's work in the field of optics. To Barrow is due the credit for two original contributions: the method of finding the point of refraction at a plane interface, and his point construction of the diacaustic of a spherical interface.
    Barrow's mathematical importance is slight, the Lectiones Mathematicae 1669 being marred by his insistence that algebra be separated from geometry and his desire to relegate algebra to a subsidiary branch of logic.

    Biography
    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.
    In the optical lectures many problems connected with the reflexion and refraction of light are treated with ingenuity. The geometrical focus of a point seen by reflexion or refraction is defined; and it is explained that the image of an object is the locus of the geometrical foci of every point on it. Barrow also worked out a few of the easier properties of thin lenses, and considerably simplified the Cartesian explanation of the rainbow.
    The geometrical lectures contain some new ways of determining the areas and tangents of curves. The most celebrated of these is the method given for the determination of tangents to curves, and this is sufficiently important to require a detailed notice, because it illustrates the way in which Barrow, Hudde and Sluze were working on the lines suggested by Fermat towards the methods of the differential calculus.

    Barrow, Isaac
    Born: 1630, London, Eng.
    Died: May 4, 1677, London English classical scholar, theologian, and mathematician who was the teacher of Isaac Newton. He developed a method of determining tangents that closely approached the methods of calculus, and he was first to recognize that the processes of integration and differentiation in calculus are inverse operations. Barrow's degree was granted in 1648, but his academic appointment was delayed because of political unrest during the Cromwellian period. He was ordained an Anglican minister in 1660 and became a professor of Greek at the University of Cambridge (1660-63). Two years later he was also appointed professor of geometry at Gresham College, London. Of his early works, which dealt primarily with ancient Greek mathematics, the most notable is his translation of Euclid's Elements: The Whole Fifteen Books (1660), which was reissued six times in the early 18th century. As Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge (1663-69), he devoted much of his time to the preparation of three lecture series concerning optics (1669), geometry (1670), and mathematics (1683). These lectures contain most of his contributions to science and mathematics. His Lectiones Geometricae (1670; "Geometrical Lectures") contained elements similar to the calculus later developed by Gottfried Leibniz of Germany, and it was known to both Leibniz and Newton.

    Lectiones geometricae : in quibus (praesertim) generalia curvarum linearum symptomata declarantur.
    These Geometrical Lectures utilise kinematic methods, the motion of points and lines, to demonstrate a wide variety of geometrical propositions. Barrow also shows his mastery of the 'new' analytic methods of finding tangents. Barrow's techniques were soon to be outdated due to creation of the calculus by Leibniz and Newton.
