Slide Notes
This deck has been created to commemorate the four hundred and fiftieth year of Galileo Galilei's birth. He was born on 15 February 1564 and died on 8 January 1642.
Galileo championed the idea - now undisputed fact - that the earth revolved around the sun. It was a perspective that the hierarchy of the 17th century Catholic Church found contrary to scripture. He defended his views in a work entitled “Dialogue Of Two World Systems”, which the Church found “vehemently suspect of heresy”. He was forced to recant his views and spent the rest of his life under house arrest.
Here then - in nine slides - is the essence of that seminal work, “Dialogue Of Two World Systems”.
