Numéro d’image : 11830255
| Isaac Newton. Engraving of Sir Isaac Newton (1642- 1727),English physicist and mathematician,discovering that his notes on optics are burning. This incident,in 1692,was blamed for a nervous breakdown that Newton suffered and his subsequent retirment for two years. The accident happened as Newton was preparing his book on light,Opticks (1704). Whilst attending a church service in Trinity College at Cambridge University,Newton's dog,Diamond,knocked over a lighted candle onto several years' notes on optical experiments. On discovering this,Newton alledgedly exclaimed "Oh Diamond,Diamond,little do you know the mischief you have done me" | |
