Tycho Brahe : världsmedborgaren från Ven

AvÅke Jönsson

Häftad, Svenska, 2025

(1)

215 kr

Skickas

Den 11 november 1572 fick Tycho Brahe syn på en ny stjärna en upptäckt som skakade om hela den dåtida världsbilden.

Från sitt observatorium på Ven revolutionerade han astronomin med en aldrig tidigare skådad noggrannhet och precision. Han bevisade att universum var föränderligt och inte statiskt, en insikt som banade väg för den moderna vetenskapen.

Men Tycho Brahe var mycket mer än en stjärnskådare. Han var en excentrisk aristokrat, en rebell och en vetenskaplig visionär som utmanade både kyrkan och tidens makthavare. Hans liv kantades av dramatik från en mystisk duell som kostade honom näsan till storpolitiska intriger vid Europas hov.

I denna fängslande biografi tecknar Åke Jönsson ett levande porträtt av en man som förändrade världen. En bok för alla som fascineras av historiens stora tänkare och den eviga jakten på kunskap.

Knockad av stjärnhimlen: Från Tycho Brahes blick till Voyagers resa

Den danske 1500-talsastronomen Tycho Brahe blickade natt efter natt upp mot den till synes oföränderliga stjärnhimlen. En natt år 1572 såg han något besynnerligt: en ny stjärna hade plötsligt dykt upp på himlavalvet. Tycho Brahe ägnade återstoden av sitt liv åt astronomin, men han fick förlita sig på sin goda syn och några siktinstrument det var först på 1600-talet som den italienske vetenskapsmannen Galileo Galilei konstruerade en kikare och med hjälp av denna fick tidigare osynliga världar att träda fram.

Det har krävts århundraden av djärva nytänkare och tekniska innovationer för att föra kunskapen om universum framåt. Lennart Hultqvist berättar om Brahe, Galileo och Kepler med flera; om kikaren, teleskopet och de avancerade rymdfarkoster som nu är på väg att lämna solsystemet för att färdas ut bland stjärnorna.

Rymden intresserar både forskare och författare, och i sin bok framhåller Lennart Hultqvist några poeter som kan sätta ord på våra tankar om var vi passar in i ett skrämmande, svårbegripligt och till stora delar outforskat universum.

Lennart Hultqvist är doktor i astronomi och har tidigare varit verksam vid Stockholms universitet, tidskriften Forskning & Framsteg och Nationalencyklopedin. Han har tidigare, med Marie Hultqvist, gett ut boken "Sophie Brahe: vetenskapen, kärleken, stjärnbrodern".

Tycho and Kepler

The Unlikely Partnership that Forever Changed our Understanding of the Heavens

The extraordinary, unlikely tale of Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler and their enormous contribution to astronomy and understanding of the cosmos is one of the strangest stories in the history of science.Kepler was a poor, devoutly religious teacher with a genius for mathematics. Brahe was an arrogant, extravagant aristocrat who possessed the finest astronomical instruments and observations of the time, before the telescope. Both espoused theories that seem off-the-wall to modern minds, but their fateful meeting in Prague in 1600 was to change the future of science.Set in one of the most turbulent and colourful eras in European history, when medieval was giving way to modern, Tycho and Kepler is a double biography of these two remarkable men.

Tycho Brahe and the Measure of the Heavens

The Danish aristocrat and astronomer Tycho Brahe personified the inventive vitality of Renaissance life in the sixteenth century. Brahe lost his nose in a student duel, wrote Latin poetry and built one of the most astonishing villas of the period, as well as the observatory Uraniborg, while virtually inventing team research and establishing the fundamental rules of empirical science.This illustrated biography presents a new and dynamic view of Tycho’s life, reassessing his gradual separation of astrology from astronomy, and his key relationships with Johannes Kepler, his sister, Sophie, and his kinsmen at the court of King Frederick II.

Tycho Brahe's Path to God

A Novel

Though best known for his editing and posthumous publication of his friend Franz Kafka's writing, Max Brod was a major novelist in his own right. ""Tycho Brahe's Path to God"", widely considered his finest work and viewed by many as a small masterpiece, concerns the relationship between the great Danish astronomer and the younger, intellectually superior Johannes Kepler. Brod's representation of this complicated relation grew out of his acquaintance with the young Albert Einstein, reproduces his struggles with the Expressionist poet Franz Werfel, and strangely anticipates the most famous act Brod would ever perform: publishing Kafka's writings without his permission. As Brahe attempts to create a diplomatic compromise between the old Ptolemaic system of planetary motion and its modern, Copernican revision, Kepler discards the principle of compromise root and branch. Their conflict thus becomes an emblem of the struggle between a weakened tradition and a self-conscious modernity. The novel manages to convey the intimate, emotional reality of a seventeenth-century political conflict as well as the psychological, political, and artistic turmoil of Brod's own time. This revival of the richly allusive and deeply resonant ""Tycho Brahe's Path to God"" is a true literary event.
