René Descartes: The Thinker Who Merged Algebra and Geometry! (1596–1650)

René Descartes: The Thinker Who Merged Algebra and Geometry! (1596–1650) Welcome to History with BMResearch! In this episode, we explore the early life and rising intellect of René Descartes, a figure who revolutionized both mathematics and philosophy. From a frail child in early modern France to a student of Jesuit education at La Flèche, Descartes embarked on a personal journey of thought that led to the creation of analytic geometry and the Cartesian coordinate system. His encounters with thinkers like Isaac Beeckman, his deep reflections, and his eventual embrace of rationalism laid the groundwork for modern philosophy. We'll uncover the origins of the phrase Cogito ergo sum and how his method of doubt shaped scientific and intellectual traditions from the Enlightenment to today. Join us as we trace Descartes’ story from birth to method, exploring a mind that dared to question everything… Sources Descartes, R. (1637). Discourse on the Method. Leiden: Jan Maire. Clarke, D. M.
