Legmontinus

Character Life

June 6, 1436 is born in Kirnisburg (now Lithuania), July 6, 1476, striving in Rome. Original name John Miler. In the early years, I learned Leipzig University. 1452 to Vienna Learn Astronomy and Mathematics under the guidance of Professor G.von Pielbach, and assisted Poerbach translation, school to Ptale. After 1462, the Greek Mathematical Manuscript was collected and studied in Rome. 1671 settled in Nuremberg, under B . Walt's funding, translation, annotation and publishing the work of Greek mathematicians such as Porleri, Apollonios, Aqui Mide and Helen. These tasks have an important role in the development of European mathematics.

Youth Period

Legend Montanus is also known as J. John Müller, about his early life, people know more, he is educated at home before 12 years old, then go to Leipzi to learn. On April 14, 1450, registered at Vienna University, start following G. PEUERBACH learning astronomy. Legend Montastan won a bachelor's degree on January 16, 1452, and he was only 15 years old. However, due to the university's rules and regulations, he got a master's degree until the age of 21. On November 11, 1457, he was hired as a University of Vienna, thus became a student and colleague from Poiph. In the life of Leg Montanus, Boibach has the greatest impact on him. Boipach has taught mathematics in Italy, then settled Vienna and made the university a center of European mathematics at that time. He wrote a book and many astronomical books, most of which were published until he passed away. It was the genius of Boibach first realized young Leg Montanus. He quickly appreciated Legmontanus to the love of astronomy, and educated him very seriously. Legend Montanus learned from the theory of planets and gradually mastered PTolemy's astronomy. He also tried to master all knowledge useful for astronomy, strive to drill the geometry, arithmetic and triangle, and lay the foundation for his future development. Friendship with Poibach makes Leg Montastan benefit for life.

Zhuang period

May 5, 1460, the sacred Roman Pope C. Bessa-Rion arrived in Vienna, through the introduction of Poipach, he became the second person who had an important impact on Legend Montinus. Beesali is not only a successful diplomatic home in the Pope, but also a scholar, especially in terms of astronomy. His mother tongue is Greek, and it is proficient in Latin. He is keen to introduce the book of ancient Greek classic writers to the Western Knowledge World using Latin, and persuade Poiph to abbreviate the "Almagest) abbreviations. Latin publishing, making it "more simple and easy to understand", because of the original language of Toller, the idea is deep. At that time, the University of Vienna did not teach Greek. Boipach did not master this language. He used the Latin Text of Gerard of Cremona in 12th Century to easily translate the 6th volume in April 1461. On the 8th, he asked Legend Montanus to continue this work before the end. In order to achieve the Wish of Poibach, Legend Montanus has begun to study Greek, because of the guidance of Beesali, he is familiar with this language in a short time. On November 20, 1461 he followed Bezaron to Rome. During this period, he read some Greek scientific works from Bessaron to give him. According to records, Legmontanus completed the abbreviation of "Astronomical" before April 28, 1463, named "Epitome". He gave the book of Bibach and his own complications to Besarion, but until August 31, 1496 was published, this is the 20 years after Regegrantinus NS.

During the Rome, Legend Montanus is a scholar, especially those who are familiar with Greek, and are busy with astronomical observations, collect trick books (including Greek and Latin). Great harvest. On July 5, 1463, Bessaron went to the Republic of Venice, Legend Montanus. In the spring of 1464, Legend Montanus speech at Padova (under the rule of the Republic of Venice), the content is about the work of AL-Farghànì, the 9th Century Muslim Scientist. He claims to have read all Latin and Greek classic works in this speech. After the mooncoury on April 2, 1464, he left Padua to Waiteron waiting for Bai Surng, just here, he completed the "DE TRIANGULIS OMNIMODIS" . He delivers the book to Bessarion, which is the most important work of Leg Montanus, but it is only published until 1533. In addition, he also wrote a dialogue in Venice, and its content is the planet theory.

Once in the late age

1467, Legend Montanus received the invitation of the King Hungary came to Budapest, the Royal Astronomer M. Tables of Directions is prepared with the assistance of Martin Bylica of Olkusz. In 1468, he calculated a sinusic table in Budapest (take SIN90 ° = 107). In 1471, he left Hungary to Nuremberg, where a print was built, so published a scientific work, thus becoming one of the earliest publication of astronomy and mathematics. It may be a plague that sweeps Roman City after January 1476, a plague that sweeps Roman City has taken the lives of Legend Montanus. Another saying of his death is that because he claims to correct the mistakes in Georg (Gero Trebizond) astronomical books, the other party hates in the heart, leading to George to poison him. On July 6, 1476, Legend Montanus died in Rome.

Main results

translation, annotation and publish the work of Greek mathematicians such as Ptlei, Apollonius, Akimid and Helen, completed "Astronomy "The abbreviation, named" Epitome).

After the moon eclipse on April 2, 1464, he left Pada to Waitan to wait for Bai Surng, which was here in June - June, he completed "the various triangles". (De Triangulis Omnimodis) book.

1472, Legend Montanus has completed the observation of a comet, very accurate, and it is judged after 200 years. It is Halley.
