December 17, 2021

Happy holidays!!! As some of you might have noticed, Google temporarily changed its doodle in honor of the French mathematician Émilie du Châteleet's 315th birthday. I want to share with you guys this exciting news because we discussed her life story earlier this semester. Except for this, I wish yall a wonderful holiday season, have fun with family and friends, and most importantly, stay safe.

La mère des sciences françaises

October 26, 2021

Gabrielle Émilie le Tonnelier de Breteuil is an outstanding mathematician, physicist, philosopher, and feminist. Her unremitting pursuit of science and the spirit of exploring truth are the best interpretation of the enlightenment spirit in the 18th century.

“If I were king, I would redress an abuse which cuts back, as it were, one half of humankind. I would have women participate in all human rights, especially those of the mind.” - Émilie du Châtelet
