http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Rota.html

Extractions: Gian-Carlo Rota 's father, Giovanni Rota, was a civil engineer and architect who specialised in anti-earthquake structures. Giovanni Rota was a prominent anti-fascist and his name appears on a death list constructed by Mussolini. Gian-Carlo was born into a talented family in Vigevano, many members of his family had achieved fame in their areas of expertise, for example one of Gian-Carlo's uncles, Flaiano, wrote scripts for Federico Fellini's films, including La Dolce Vita. Gian-Carlo was educated in Italy up to the age of thirteen in 1945. This was near the end of World War II and, due to Giovanni Rota's anti-fascist views, the family was forced to leave Vigevano to escape Mussolini's death squads. Giovanni Rota took his family to northern Italy where they hide for a time before crossing the border into Switzerland. The family eventually escaped to Ecuador where Gian-Carlo completed his secondary school education. The positive side to this remarkable escape story was that Rota was fluent in English, Italian, Spanish and French. Rota entered the United States in 1950 at the age of eighteen to undertake his university studies. He entered Princeton University in 1950 and received a BA summa cum laude in 1953. After graduating, Rota entered Yale University where he studied for his Master's Degree in Mathematics which was awarded in 1954. He then undertook doctoral studies, supervised by Jacob T Schwartz, and he was awarded a PhD from Yale in 1956 for his thesis

Extractions: Gian-Carlo Rota was born into a talented family. Many members of his family had achieved fame in their areas of expertise. For example, one of Gian-Carlo's uncles wrote scripts for Federico Fellini's films. Gian-Carlo was educated in Italy up to the age of 13. This was near the end of World War II and, due to his father's anti-fascist views, the family was forced to move to northern Italy where they hid for a time before crossing the border into Switzerland.

He get his Bachelor's Degree from Princeton University in 1953, his Master's Degree from Yale University in 1954, and a Ph.D. from Yale in 1956. In this same year that he was awarded his doctorate, Rota married and received a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship to undertake research at the Courant Institute at New York University. After spending a year in New York, Rota was appointed as Benjamin Peirce Instructor at Harvard University. He held this post until 1959 when he joined the faculty at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With the exception of the years from 1965 to 1967 when he was at the Rockefeller University, Rota remained at MIT for the rest of his career. Rota was given the title Professor of Applied Mathematics at MIT but in 1972 his title was changed to Professor of Applied Mathematics and Philosophy. He is the only professor at MIT ever to have such a title. However, he had many other roles outside MIT. Rota had a long association with the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory where he enjoyed being with his friend Ulam and collaborating with him. He served as a consultant to the Laboratory from in 1966 and, in 1971, he was made a Senior Fellow of the Laboratory. Rota was also a consultant with the Rand Corporation from 1966 to 1971 and with the Brookhaven National Laboratory from 1969 to 1973.

Extractions: Paradossalmente gli stessi sviluppi dell'intelligenza artificiale starebbero conducendo i ricercatori verso la dissoluzione del paradigma centrale delle moderne scienze cognitive, ossia dell'ingenua credenza che concepisce la mente umana come una sofisticata macchina pensante, sul modello del computer. Difatti, osservava Rota, nel tentativo di costruire macchine che eseguano compiti tipicamente umani, scienziati e ingegneri sarebbero stati costretti ad analizzare nel dettaglio le caratteristiche di tali mansioni. La natura stessa dei problemi affrontati li avrebbe spinti ad interrogarsi sul significato di processi come leggere, pensare, percepire.

Extractions: Contact Information CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Gian-Carlo Rota, an internationally respected mathematician and philosopher and a dedicated and beloved teacher, died of heart failure in his home earlier this week. He was 66. Dr. Rota apparently died in his sleep. He was found in bed in his night clothes on the afternoon of Monday, April 19, after failing to arrive in Philadelphia Sunday afternoon for a series of three lectures he was to give this week at Temple University. The cause of death was atherosclotic cardiovascular disease, according to the Middlesex County Medical Examiner. Dr. Rota was the only MIT faculty member ever to hold the title of Professor of Applied Mathematics and Philosophy. As a mathematician, he is credited with having transformed his specialty area, combinatorics which he described as "putting different colored marbles in different colored boxes, seeing how many ways you can divide them" from an insignificant field to one of the most important areas of mathematics today. "Gian-Carlo Rota almost single-handedly lifted the subject of combinatorics from a barely respectable obscurity to one of the most active areas of mathematics today," said Richard Stanley, a mathematics professor at MIT who is also a former student of Dr. Rota's. Stanley was one of the organizers of Rotafest, a four-day mathematical conference held at MIT in 1996 honoring Dr. Rota's 64th birthday.

Extractions: SIAM News Quick Search: Gian-Carlo Rota Gian-Carlo Rota, a professor of applied mathematics and philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, died of heart failure, apparently in his sleep, around April 18, 1999. Rota was born in Vigevano, Italy, on April 27, 1932. Forced to flee Mussolini's death squads, his family left Italy in 1945, after which they lived for a time in Ecuador. His sister, Ester Rota Gasperoni, recounted the family's escape from Italy in two books, Orage sur le Lac and L'arbre des Capulies. Rota came to the United States in 1950; he received a BA from Princeton University and, in 1956, a PhD from Yale University under Jacob T. Schwartz. He held postdoctoral positions at the Courant Institute and Harvard University before arriving at MIT in 1959. Except for a short hiatus at Rockefeller University (1965-67), he remained at MIT until his death, much to the good fortune of countless MIT undergraduates, graduate students, visitors, and faculty who were able to share his enthusiasm and joy for mathematics, philosophy, and life in general. An important watershed in the development of combinatorics was the NSF Advanced Science Seminar in Combinatorial Theory at Bowdoin College during the summer of 1971. Gian-Carlo presided over this meeting as a godfather of the "new combinatorics." He was involved in all aspects of the eight-week meeting, from the mathematical content to social activities. I recall one pedagogical innovation of his-the tandem lecture. He would choose about six people from the audience who had to leave the room and not talk to each other. He would then call them into the lecture hall one at a time to deliver a five-minute lecture. Each lecture had to be a continuation of the previous lecture, based on what the previous speaker had left on the blackboard.
