Girolamo Cardano Girolamo Cardano is sometimes known by his Latin name, Cardan. He was an illegitimate child of a lawyer in Milan, whose expertise in mathematics was such that he was consulted by Leonardo da Vinci on questions of geometry. Cardano at first became his father's assistant, but began to think about an academic career after learning mathematics from his father. He studied medicine, and was a brilliant student. But he was outspoken and highly critical, so he was not well liked. Cardano squandered the small bequest from his father and turned to gambling to make a living. Cardano's understanding of probability meant he had an advantage over his opponents and, in general, he won more than he lost. Gambling became an addiction that was to last many years and rob Cardano of valuable time, money and reputation. Cardano was awarded his doctorate in medicine in 1525. He set up a small, and not very successful, medical practice in Sacco, where he married. He repeatedly applied to the College of Physicians in Milan but was not allowed membership due to his reputation and his ignoble birth. Unable to practise medicine, Cardano reverted again to gambling to pay his way. Things went so badly that he was forced to pawn his wife's jewellery and even some of his furniture. Cardano was fortunate to obtain the post of lecturer in mathematics in Milan which gave him plenty of free time, and he used some of this to treat a few patients, despite not being a member of the College of Physicians. Cardano achieved some near miraculous cures and his growing reputation as a doctor led to his being consulted by members of the College, to which he was eventually admitted in 1539.

The University of Houston presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. S ixteenth-century physician Girolamo Cardano was not only a Renaissance man in the truest sense, but one of the most colorful figures of his era. A prolific writer, Cardano produced over 130 printed works and left another 100 unfinished manuscripts at his death. In his autobiography, Cardano described himself as "Hot-tempered, single-minded, and given to women," not to mention "cunning, crafty, sarcastic, diligent, impertinent, sad, treacherous, magician and sorcerer, miserable, hateful, lascivious, obscene, lying, obsequious," and "fond of the prattle of old men." Cardano's contributions span many fields. A universal joint connecting the gear box to the rear axle of a rear wheel drive car is known to this day by a version of his name the

Girolamo Cardano (1501-1576 A.D.) One of the most gifted and versatile men of his time, Cardano wrote a number of works on arithmetic, astronomy, physics, medicine and other subjects. His greatest work is his Ars magna, the first great Latin treatise devoted solely to algebra. Here notice is taken of negative roots of an equation and some attention is paid to computations with imaginary numbers. There also occurs a crude method for obtaining an approximate value of a root of an equation of any degree. There is evidence that he was familiar with “Descartes’ rule of signs”. As an inveterate gambler, Cardano wrote a gambler’s manual in which some interesting questions on probability are considered. Back!!

Girolamo Cardano Girolamo Cardano was born on September 24, 1501 in Pavia, Italy, after several failed attempts at abortion by his unmarried mother. He had a very difficult childhood due to the neglect from his parents and several illnesses. At the age of nineteen Cardano left home to study at the University of Pavia. He finished his doctorate of medicine at the University of Padua in 1526. Cardano had many professions over the course of his life, including, mathematician, astrologer, philosopher, and gambler. He was famous as a healer, but Girolamo Cardano’s colleagues did not appreciate him. He was rejected several times before being accepted as a doctor. He then wrote a book, entitled On the Bad Practice of Medicine in common use, criticizing the methods most doctors used to heal their patients. This caused a back-lash from the faculty and much pain for Girolamo. Cardano was known as a gambler, but most agree, was only interested in it because he found it fascinating to calculate the odds. Eventually his interest led to his formation of the mathematical laws of probability. These laws are still used in mathematics today. Girolamo was a very interesting character. He authored over two hundred different books on a large variety of subjects. He had a hard life, which started with his troubled childhood. His son was executed in 1560 for attempting to poison his pregnant wife. Cardano himself was jailed in 1570 for heresy, for he had "cast the horoscope of Jesus Christ". He also cast his own horoscope, saying he would die on September 21, 1576. Cardano made sure this prediction came true. On September 21, 1576 Cardano took his own life.

[Home] [O Episódio] [Os personagens] [O problema] ... [Quem somos] Girolamo Cardano Girolamo Cardano era filho ilegítimo de Fazio Cardano e Chiara Micheria. O seu pai era jurisconsulto em Milão. Sendo muito versátil em matemática, Fazio chegou a ser consultado por Leonardo da Vinci sobre questões de geometria. Em paralelo ao exercício da advocacia, Fazio dava aulas de geometria na universidade de Pavia e na fundação Piatti em Milão. Quando tinha perto de 50 anos, conheceu Chiara Micheria, uma jovem viúva (com cerca de 30 anos) que lutava por criar os seus três filhos. Chiara ficou grávida, mas antes de dar à luz, a peste atingiu Milão e Fazio pediu-lhe que fosse para Pádua para ficar com uns amigos abastados, podendo assim ter um final de gravidez bastante mais saudável. Cardano nasceu em Pavia a 24 de Setembro de 1501, grande alegria para sua mãe, alegria essa que durou pouco, pois recebeu a notícia da morte dos seus três filhos devido à peste. Chiara viveu separada de Fazio por muitos anos, mas, mais tarde acabou por casar com este. Cardano tornou-se assistente de seu pai mas, devido a ser uma criança bastante doente, Fazio viu-se obrigado a recorrer à ajuda de dois sobrinhos quando houve um aumento de trabalho. Cardano entrou depois para a universidade de Pavia (onde seu pai tinha estudado) para frequentar o curso de medicina, embora o desejo de Fazio fosse que estudasse direito.

Cardano Biographical Information: Girolamo Cardano (1501-1576) was born in Pavia, Italy, the illegitimate son of a well-educated jurist, Fazio Cardano, who was also a friend of Leonardo da Vinci. As a child, Cardano was frequently sick and often mistreated by his parents. He entered the University of Pavia at the age of nineteen, eventually transferred to the University of Padua and spent several years at the university, completing his doctorate in medicine in 1826. After he was graduated from the university, he set up a medical practice in Saccolongo, and married five years later. In 1534 Cardano moved to Milan with his family, set up a new medical practice, and began teaching mathematics at the Piattine schools. Over the next decade, Cardano gained great notoriety for both his medical practice and his mathematical abilities. He published two mathematical treatises during this time, the Practica arithmetica (Practical arithmetic) (1539) and the most influential of his works, Artis magnae sive de regulis algebraicis liber unus (The Great Art or the First Book about Regular Algebra) (1545), which introduced the Cardano rule for solving reduced third-degree equations and described the linear transformation that would eliminate the second degree term in a complete cubic equation. Although Cardano accepted the chair of Medicine at the University of Pavia in 1543, his interest in mathematics and mechanics never wavered. He wrote about the impossibility of perpetual motion (except in celestial bodies), and in his
