Matthias Bernegger ((ラテン語:Bernegerus), also ''Matthew'';〔Jerzy Dobrzycki: ''The reception of Copernicus' heliocentric theory'', International Union of the History and Philosophy of Science. Nicolas Copernicus Committee ()〕 born 8 February 1582 in Hallstatt, Salzkammergut, died 5 February 1640 in Strassburg) was a German philologist, astronomer, university professor and writer of Latin works. == Life == Bernegger's Protestant family was, like other so called ''exulanten'', expelled from Habsburg Austria during the counter reformation. They settled in Regensburg, where Bernegger visited the Gymnasium. In 1599, the 17-year-old began studies in Strassburg, mainly in the fields of philology and natural sciences. He was fascinated by astronomy and was in contact with Johannes Kepler and Wilhelm Schickard. Already in 1612,〔 Bernegger had translated a 1606 Italian language work of Galileo Galilei's into Latin, as ''Tractatus de proportionum instrumento''.〔Tractatus de proportionum instrumento: quod merito compendium vniuersæ geometriæ dixeris ()〕 In 1632, via their mutual friend Elia Diodati, Galilei asked Bernegger to translate his Italian language ''Dialogo'' (Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems) into Latin. In order to protect Galilei's involvement, it was stated〔Siegfried Wollgast: ''Philosophie in Deutschland zwischen Reformation und Aufklärung, 1550-1650'', ()〕 in the preface that one of Peter Crüger's pupils, Benjamin Engelcke, had traveled in 1632 to Italy, had met Galilei, and had brought Galilei's book to Bernegger to persuade〔 him to translate, without Galilei's permission. Bernegger was known for his editions of classic writers like Tacitus and for his correspondence with scholars. Among his students were the Silesian Daniel Czepko von Reigersfeld (1605–1660), Johannes Freinsheim, Johann Michael Moscherosch, Martin Opitz and the Prussian Robert Roberthin (1600–1648). Since 1607, Bernegger taught, like his colleague Caspar Brülow (1585–1627), at the Protestant Gymnasium, before he was called in 1616 to the Straßburg Academy which was raised in 1621 to a University. Bernegger was also interested in politics, and during the Thirty Years' War tried to negotiate with the French. As pacifist, he opposed Caspar Schoppe who called for a holy war against Protestants. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Matthias Bernegger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
