Bücher von Galileo Galilei

Io non ho mai potuto intendere, Illustrissimo Signore, onde sia nato che tutto quello che de¿ miei studi, per aggradire o servire altrui, m¿è convenuto metter in publico, abbia incontrato in molti una certa animosità in detrarre, defraudare e vilipendere quel poco di pregio che, se non per l¿opera, almeno per l¿intenzion mia m¿era creduto di meritare. Non prima fu veduto alle stampe il mio Nunzio Sidereo,dove si dimostrarono tanti nuovi e meravigliosi discoprimenti nel cielo, che pur doveano esser grati agli amatori della vera filosofia, che tosto si sollevaron per mille bande insidiatori di quelle lodi dovute a così fatti ritrovamenti: né mancaron di quelli che, solo per contradir ä mie...

(Padova, 7 maggio 1610) Ill.mo Sig.re et Padre Col.mo Come per la mia passata accennai a V. S. Ill.ma, ho fatte 3 lezioni publiche in materia de i 4 Pianeti Medicei e delle altre mie osservazioni; e avendo auta l¿udienza di tutto lo Studio, ho fatto restare in modo ciascheduno capace e satisfatto, che finalmente quei primarii medesimi che erano stati acerbissimi impugnatori e contrarii assertori alle cose da me scritte, vedendosela finalmente disperata e persa a fatto, costretti o da virtù o da necessità, hanno coram populo detto, sé non solamente esser persuasi, ma apparecchiati a difendere e sostener la mia dottrina contro a qualunque filosofo....

Salv. Largo campo di filosofare a gl'intelletti specolativi parmi che porga la frequente pratica del famoso arsenale di voi, Signori Veneziani, ed in particolare in quella parte che mecanica si domanda; atteso che quivi ogni sorte di strumento e di machina vien continuamente posta da numero grande d'artefici, tra i quali, e per l'osservazioni fatte dai loro antecessori, e per quelle che di propria avvertenza vanno continuamente per se stessi facendo, è forza che ve ne siano de i peritissimi e di finissimo discorso. Sagr. V. S. non s'inganna punto: ed io, come per natura curioso, frequento per mio diporto la visita di questo luogo e la pratica di questi che noi,

Dialogo sopra i due massimi sistemi Tolemaico e Copernicano

2015 Reprint of 1954 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. This is the standard translation of one of the greatest works in western science. Written near the end of his life, the book had to be published abroad and eventually led to Galileo's condemnation. Written as a discussion between a master and two students, it sets forth its hundred experiments and summarizes the conclusions Galileo drew from those experiments in a brisk, direct style. Galileo discusses aspects of fracture of solid bodies, cohesion, leverage, the speed of light, sound, pendulums, falling bodies, projectiles, uniform motion, accelerated motion, and the strength of wires, rods and beams under different loadings and placements. This is an unabridged republication of the translation by H. Crew and A. D Salvio, with an introduction by Antonio Favaro. The work recognized as the first systematic attempt to give a mathematical treatment of kinematics. "So great a contribution to physics was "Two New Sciences" that scholars have long maintained that the book anticipated Isaac Newton's laws of motion." --Stephen Hawking. "Galileo ... is the father of modern physics-indeed of modern science"-Albert Einstein.

The sidereal messenger of Galileo Galilei - And a part of the preface to Kepler's Dioptrics containing the original account of Galileo's astronomical discoveries is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1880.Hansebooks is editor of the literature on different topic areas such as research and science, travel and expeditions, cooking and nutrition, medicine, and other genres. As a publisher we focus on the preservation of historical literature. Many works of historical writers and scientists are available today as antiques only. Hansebooks newly publishes these books and contributes to the preservation of literature which has become rare and historical knowledge for the future.

Lyncei, Academiarum Pisanae ac Patavinae, Philosophi ac Mathematici Summi Systema Cosmicum, scriptum a Galileo Galilei, est opus magnum quod comprehendit doctrinam astronomiae et physicae, cum descriptionibus accuratis de motibus planetarum et siderum, ac de natura et proprietatibus universi. In hoc libro, Galilei demonstrat leges physicarum quae regunt motum corporum caelestium, et describit observationes suae per telescopium factas, quae revolutionem scientiae astronomicae et physicae mutaverunt. Systema Cosmicum est una ex operibus Galilei quae maxime influentiam habuerunt in progressu scientiarum naturae, et est consideratum esse fundamentum astronomiae modernae.This Book Is In Latin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Die Discorsi von 1638 enthalten die Summe des philosophischen und wissenschaftlichen Lebenswerks Galileo Galileis (1564 - 1642). Sie zählen mit Newtons Principia von 1687, die auf Galileis Arbeit aufbauen, zum wichtigsten Erbe des vergangenen Jahrtausends. Dennoch sind sie heute mindestens so unbekannt wie Newtons Buch. Das liegt an der geometrischen Methode dieser Autoren, die in der Philosophie nach Platon niemals heimisch geworden ist und der Wissenschaft nach Newton abhanden kam. Damit ging ein tragendes Element der geometrischen Bewegungslehre verloren.Galileis Bewegungsgesetz ist eine viergliedrige Verhältnisgleichung (tetraktys). Raum und Zeit sind darin quantisiert mit zueinander proportionalen Elementen präsent. Ihr Verhältnis reguliert als bisher unbekannte Naturkonstante die Wechselwirkung von immaterieller schöpferischer Kraft und materiellem Effekt. Gerade aus der Perspektive der modernen Physik hat das Konsequenzen für das mathematische und philosophische Verständnis der Bewegung: Galileis und Newtons Theorie folgt der Lehre von den gleichen ganzzahligen Vielfachen (Euklid, Elemente V, Def. 5). Sie ist eine diskrete oder Quantentheorie der Bewegung und ihrer Ursache in der gleichfalls diskreten »Raumzeit«. Das zeigt gegen Aristoteles, Descartes, Leibniz, Kant, Mach und Einstein, dass Raum und Zeit »an sich« in einer realistischen Bewegungslehre unverzichtbar sind, und entzieht den Relativitätstheorien die Grundlage.

Sidereus Nuncius ist diejenige Schrift Galileis, in der er seine Beobachtungen mit dem kurz zuvor in Holland erfundenen Fernrohr mitteilt. Erst mit diesem neuen Gerät konnte er die rauhe Mondoberfläche, die Vielzahl der Sterne des Orions, der Plejaden, der Milchstraße, die Auflösung von Sternennebeln in viele Einzelsterne und die Jupitermonde beobachten. Diese Entdeckungen führten dann zur Stützung des kopernikanischen Systems und zur Aufhebung der Wesensverschiedenheit zwischen sublunarer und supralunarer Welt.In dem einleitenden Essay von Hans Blumenberg wird die besondere Rolle des Fernrohrs im Funktionszusammenhang von Wissenschaft und Technik deutlich gemacht. Die Anwendung technischer Vorrichtungen bedeutet bei Galilei nicht mehr ein Handeln wider die Natur, sondern mit ihr. Technische Mittel nehmen daher auf legitime Weise teil an der Naturgesetzlichkeit.

Galileo's groundbreaking dialogues are a summation of three decades of scientific work he had undertaken in the fledgling field of physics. This edition includes the diagrams crucial for understanding the text.Writing these dialogues in 1638, the elderly Galileo had a life of achievements behind him. Despite attempts at suppression of his writings by the Roman Inquisition, his ideas were successfully communicated across Europe. The motion of objects and resistance to such motion, the concept of velocity, and the laws of gravity are merely a few of the topics covered in these detailed dialogues. At the outset, we are introduced to the three conversation partners: Salviati, Sagredo and Simplicio. These three Venetians embark on a scientific discussion, hoping to explain the curiosities of things such as speed and movement. Over the course of four days, their meetings grow in complexity and scope as they strive to explain physical phenomena.
