Discusion. ¿candidato ideal?
Cartas de presentacion. Un estudioso clasico.
Entran Viviani, ultimo estudiante de Galileo, y Andrea. En la esquina F,el optico, trabaja un telescopio.
ANDREA: He is, then, a classical scholar?
VIVIANI: Not the standard one. True his job is as a teacher of Greek, and seems to be able to read Arabic and who knows if even sanscritt. But, according to the letter,he has just finished a translation of Euclid and he is really very interested in Geometry.
ANDREA: Geometry? Not Nature? Nor, Physics?
VIVIANI: We will see. (Read again the letter) Nature as a way to read divinity, could be. Hmm.
Recelos. Confianza, es Ingles.
ANDREA: Divinity, oh no, please. We have had enough problems.
VIVIANI: He is an Englishman.
ANDREA: Thus?
VIVIANI: Anglican or protestant, surely. Not very papist, I can tell you. In some sense he stills represents a newborn church. Join his interest on divinity and it could be a very good cover.
F: A cover? Are you planning to try again?
ANDREA:Yes, Francesco, we are.
F:We so not need to go into difficulties again. Someone will replace the master, some day. No theorem is secret, no fact is only for a person, he told us
ANDREA: But meanwhile, why not to ask the ancients again?

"Pietro Redondi's _Galileo eretico_ (Turin, 1983; _Galileo Heretic_,
London, 1988) has failed to convince scholars that the true reason for
Galileo's condemnation was suspicions about his atomism in connection with
the Catholic doctrine of the eucharist;

Reviewer: [correo omitido] from Geneva, Switzerland March 1, 1999
The author's main thesis is that Galileo famous trial did not take place because he promoted a heliocentric
view of the universe, but because he promoted a non-Aristotelian theory of physics at variance with the
Church's doctrine of transubstantiation.
Galileo's espousal of Copernicanism led to his incarceration by the Inquisition and his trial, a famous episode in the struggle for
scientific freedom. Questions about the long encounter with the Inquisition abound. Was Galileo the victim of a fraud and was the
Trial rigged by his enemies? Giorgio de Santillana thinks so; begin your reading with The Crime of Galileo (1955). Others are not so
sure; see Stillman Drake, Galileo at Work (1978). Another scholar thinks Copernicanism was not the problem. What really bothered
the Inquisition was Galileo's apparent endorsement of the proscribed, heretical, pagan philosophy, Epicurean atomism. Read Pietro
Redondi, Galileo: Heretic (1987). Mario Biagioli has added another controversial dimension to Galileo's troubles. He reconstructs the
institutions of social patronage Galileo (and other Italian natural philosophers) required, to show how the trial and the Copernican
recantation typified the courtier's fall when a prince's withdrew his favor; read Galileo, Courtier (1993)
