Copernicus's book description is true or mathematical hypothesis?
Giordano Bruno, Nola, takes as its description true Copernican theory.
Aristotelian theory places the finite universe, Bruno thinks this is impossible, he believes the universe is infinite. In addition, because the infinite is only one universe is infinite, God is the universe.
Bruno was a pantheist (= pantheism all is God, God coincides with the totality of reality). For his conflicting ideas had to leave the church.
was not frowned upon by this only because of his belief in Copernican theory, but mainly because he wrote his treatises in the vernacular so that everyone can understand.
"The shop of the beast triumphant" book that will take him to die.
"De l'Infinite Universe and Worlds" Bruno is the first to think of the infinite universe and think that there are other planets, possibly Earth-like settlements.
is in danger, however, for supporting the movement of the earth. Ends badly for one of the areas that seemed sure there is the Republic of Venice (in '500 had with the church the question of interdict). Bruno, however, does not compute that Venice had no problems to not extradite a citizen.
Giordano Bruno moved to accept the hospitality of Mocenigo Venice, which in turn, asks him lessons mnemonic (Bruno enough to read to learn).
Mocenigo, Bruno even if it takes all the good intentions, fails to make progress, probably because inattentive type and no natural predisposition to the mnemonic. Bruno
therefore fails in its teaching and Mocenigo feels cheated. He decides to take revenge and denounces the Inquisition for his ideas.
Bruno is processed and is offered a plea bargain, will serve a minimum sentence if he decides to recant.
In February 1600 Bruno was burned at the stake in Rome. The burning of Giordano Bruno has weighed on the philosophical and scientific debates of our country. Throughout the next century philosophers will always have fear of ending up at the stake for their beliefs.
