Dear All,
Does any one know why the Florentine Academia del Disegno admited Galileo as an academic in 1613?
I mean, besides the fact that he aplied and that he was accepted. And even besides the fact that the first Scientific Academy (Academia del Cimento) the world was founded only a few years later in 1657?
I mean, Why did he applied?
Why was he accepted?
I really don't know.
Help, anyone?
Eduardo
