Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... M > Marin Mersenne A B C D ... Z Marin Mersenne Jesuit Descartes , his fellow student, originated. Mersenne entered the novitiate of the Minims at Nigeon near Paris (1611), was sent to Nevers as professor of philosophy (1614-1620), and returned to Paris. His first publications were theological and polemical studies against Atheism and Scepticism, but later, Mersenne devoted his time almost exclusively to science, making personal experimental researches, and publishing a number of works on mathematical sciences. His chief merit, however, is rather the encouragement which he gave to scientists of his time, the interest he took in their work, and the stimulating influence of his suggestions and questions. Gassendi and Galileo were among his friends; but, above all, Mersenne is known to-day as Descartes's friend and adviser. In fact, when Descartes began to lead a free and dissipated life, it was Mersenne who brought him back to more serious pursuits and directed him toward philosophy. In Paris, Mersenne was Descartes's assiduous correspondent, auxiliary, and representative, as well as his constant defender. The numerous and vehement attacks against the "Meditations" seem, for a moment, to have aroused Mersenne's suspicions; but Descartes's answers to his critics gave him full satisfaction as to his friend's orthodoxy and sincere

Marin Mersenne Marin Mersenne attended school at the College of Mans, Then, starting in 1604, he spent five years in the Jesuit College at La Fleche. From 1609 to 1611 he studied theology at the Sorbonne. Mersenne joined the religious order of the Minims in 1611. The name of the order comes since the Minims regard themselves as the least of all the religious; they devote themselves to prayer, study and scholarship. Mersenne continued his education within the order at Nigeon and then at Meaux. He returned to Paris where in 1612 he became a priest at the Place Royale. He taught philosophy at the Minim convent at Nevers from 1614 to 1618. In 1619 he returned again to Paris. His cell in Paris became a meeting place for Fermat, Pascal, Gassendi, Roberval, Beaugrand and others who later became the core of the French Academy. Mersenne corresponded with other eminent mathematicians and he played a major role in communicating mathematical knowledge throughout Europe at a time when there were no scientific journals.

Children can opt to turn the paper pages and listen to the story read with different voices for each character. Or they can interrupt the read-aloud session to play with the magic pen (permanently attached with a wire). They can point the pen tip to any word on a page and hear it pronounced, or touch a picture and hear a sound effect (such as ''Strike one!'' for the baseball bat). Very similar to the popular Living Books computer games, this 10-by-11-inch book is more portable than a home computer.

Back to the Table of Contents Marin Mersenne His Life Marin Mersenne was a 17th century monk and mathematician, who mainly studied the numbers 2 p Marin Mersenne is best known for his role as a sort of clearing house for correspondence between eminent philosophers and scientists, and for his work in number theory. Mersenne's Accomplishments Many early writers felt that the numbers of the form 2 p - 1 were prime for all primes p, but in 1536 Hudalricus Regius showed that 2 - 1 = 2047 was not prime. By 1603 Pietro Cataldi had correctly verified that 2 - 1 and 2 - 1 were both prime, but then incorrectly stated 2 n -1 was also prime for 23, 29, 31 and 37. In 1640 Fermat showed Cataldi was wrong about 23 and 37; then Euler in 1738 showed Cataldi was also wrong about 29. Sometime later Euler showed Cataldi's assertion about 31 was correct. Enter Mersenne. Marin Mersenne investigated prime numbers and he tried to find a formula that would represent all prime numbers. Although he failed in this, his work on the numbers 2

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Marin Mersenne Marin Mersenne September 8 September 1 ) was a French philosopher and mathematician Born of peasant parents near Oize ( Sarthe ), he was educated at the Jesuit College of La Flèche, where he was a fellow-pupil and friend of Descartes . In he joined the Minim Friars, and devoted himself to philosophic teaching in various convent schools, including Nevers . He settled eventually in Paris in 1620 at the convent of L'Annonciade. For the next four years he devoted himself entirely to philosophic and theological writing, and published Quaestiones celeberrimae in Genesim L'Impieté des déistes La Vérité des sciences (1624). It is sometimes incorrectly stated that he was a Jesuit; he was educated by Jesuits, but he never joined the Society of Jesus. He taught theology and philosophy at Nevers and Paris. Mersenne is today remembered thanks to his association with the Mersenne primes. However, he was not primarily a mathematician; he wrote about music theory and other subjects. He edited works of Euclid Archimedes , and other Greek mathematicians. But his perhaps most important contribution to the advance of learning was his extensive correspondence (in

It was said that he was an amateur mathematician. He studied prime numbers and tried to find a formula that would represent all primes. He was unable to do this but his work influenced others to continue what he had started. There was an interest in prime numbers before Marin Mersenne came on the scene. One formula for prime numbers was 2 n - 1 for all prime numbers n . Several mathematicians (Regius in 1536, Cataldi in 1603, Fermat in 1640) tested this formula and proved it true in some cases and not true in others. Mersenne stated in his book Cognita Physica-Mathematica that the numbers 2 n - 1 were prime for the primes 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 67, 127, and 257. It was this conjecture that connected his name to these primes. Mersenne’s peers expressed their doubts that he had actually tested his conjecture and Mersenne, at a later date, admitted he had not. It took until 1947 to completely check Mersenne’s list. It was determined during the 400 year period that Mersenne’s list was not entirely accurate and that the correct list was for
