- W989369370 abstract "The project seeks to fuse mathematics and literature by presenting a fictionalbiography based on the French mathematical prodigy Evariste Galois (1811 -1832).After thoroughly researching and reading all the English sources, together withtranslations of material in French, it was found that most biographers presented a sketchy,two-dimensional picture of Galois. These biographies contained gaps at important stages inGalois' life and failed to be consistent with the known facts in dealing with the causes thatlead to his death. Furthermore, subsequent findings have invalidated some of these earlierbiographies. Given these shortcomings, it was felt that a fictional biography, rather than aconventional biography, would be a more appropriate form for investigating the subject. Thisform, essentially a novel, provides an alternative means of depicting the subject's character,personality, motivation and mathematical thinking. It also allows for speculation, oftenbeyond the scope of more conventional biography, which may provide valuable insights andnew perspectives on historical figures.In the final analysis, this fictional biography will provide one possible solution (aswith mathematics there may be other solutions) to the problem of textualising a three-dimensionalcharacter-study of the life, work and death of Galois." @default.
