The period of revolt against the Aristotelianism of the schools had begun, and Gassendi shared to the full the

Who are these guys and why should you care? Good question so let's dig in. You'll have to forgive me but I'm going to mention a few dates. The dates are significant because they allow you to see how these fellows relate to each other and who might have influenced whom, or not. Epicurus Let's begin with Epicurus who lived from 341 BC to 270 BC. That makes him a little more recent than Aristotle (384-322 BC) with a slight overlap. The reason that is significant is that Epicurus believed just about everything Aristotle did not. To begin with, he favored the atomic theory of the universe developed by Democritus (460-370 BC) who himself preceded Aristotle by a few years. Democritus D emocritus developed the atomic idea although he gave the credit to someone he called Leucippus whose existence is in fact doubted by some. According to him, all things are composed of minute, invisible, indestructible particles of pure matter. Sounds familiar doesn't it? Keep in mind that this is more than two thousand years ago. To Democritus the "creation" of worlds was the

    Extractions: As for flesh, true, indeed, is it that man is sustained on flesh. But how many things, let me ask, does man do every day which are contrary to, or beside, his nature? So great, and so general, is the perversion of his mode of life, which has, as it were, eaten into his flesh by a sort of deadly contagion, that he appears to have put on another disposition. Hence, the whole care and concern of philosophy and moral instruction ought to consist in leading men back to the paths of Nature.

Cardinal Richelieu , he was appointed by the king to a professorship of mathematics at the College Royal of France, which he reluctantly accepted, being granted the rare privilege of returning to his native soil whenever his health required it. On 23 November, he delivered his inaugural address in presence of the cardinal . His lectures before a numerous and learned audience were astronomical rather than mathematical, and resulted, two years later, in the publication of "Institutio Astronomica". Meanwhile an inflammation of the lungs had obliged him to return to Provence. In 1653, he went back to Paris and was received in a friendly manner at the Chateau de Monmort, where a year later he fell seriously ill with intermittent fever. He was bled nine times, and, although he declared himself too weak for another bleeding, he submitted to the decision of the doctors in Paris. He underwent the same operation five times more, after which his speech became mere whispering, and he expired quietly at the age of 63. Gassendi, "the

Then, in 1608, he entered the University of Aix where he studied philosophy for two years then theology for a further two years. Gassendi was Principal at the College of Digne from 1612 to 1614, then he received a doctorate in theology from Avignon and was ordained in 1615, one year later. He had already been appointed canon at a church in Digne in 1614. He held this post until 1634 when he was elevated to dean. Gassendi first met Mersenne in 1624 when he visited Paris. Mersenne tried to persuade him to give up mathematics and theology in favour of philosophy. Gassendi rejected Descartes ' philosophy, emphasising the inductive method. He believed in atomism and defended a mechanistic explanation of nature. Kepler had predicted a transit of Mercury would occur in 1631 and Gassendi was the first to observe such a transit. He wrote on astronomy, his own astronomical observations and on falling bodies.

    Extractions: PIERRE GASSENDI (1592-1655) was born in the small village of Champtercier in the South of France. He was first taught by his uncle and later entered the College of Digne (1599) and the University of Aix (1609) where he studied philosophy and theology. Several years later he was ordained, took his doctorate in theology (Avignon), and became a canon of Notre Dame du Bourg (Digne). He was later appointed Professor of Philosophy at Aix. G assend's first book, Exercitationes paradoxicae adversus aristoteleos , was stridently anti-Scholastic. Gassendi lived in Paris from 1628-1632 where he made a number of life-long friendships, notably with Boulliau, Mersenne, Mydorge, Naude, and La Mothe le Vayer. Besides his interest in ancient philosophy, notably his work on Epicurus, Gassendi was particularly interested during this period in issues involving astronomy and optics. He soon published Parhelia, sive soles quatuor (1630) and Mercurius in sole visus L eaving Paris for his native Provence in 1632, Gassendi returned to his studies on the ancient atomist Epicurus. During the next five years Gassendi worked closely with his patron and intimate friend, Nicolas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc (1580-1637), perhaps the most prolific correspondent of the early 17th century. With Peiresc's death Gassendi appears to have suffered deep depression. Putting aside his study of Epicurus, Gassendi spent the next several years writing a biography of his friend
