December 1592

University of Padua.

Am now at Padua. A Professor of Mathematics.
Continue my experiments in hopes of disproving Aristotle.

[Note: The University of Padua was one of the most prominent universities in early modern Europe, known particularly for the rigor of its Aristotelean logic and science. The university was also an innovator in the fields of mathematics and anatomy.]
