Mersenne entered the novitiate of the Minims at Nigeon near Paris (1611), was sent to Nevers as professor of philosophy (1614-1620), and returned to Paris. His first publications were theological and polemical studies against Atheism and Scepticism, but later, Mersenne devoted his time almost exclusively to science, making personal experimental researches, and publishing a number of works on mathematical sciences. His chief merit, however, is rather the encouragement which he gave to scientists of his time, the interest he took in their work, and the stimulating influence of his suggestions and questions. Gassendi and Galileo were among his friends; but, above all, Mersenne is known to-day as Descartes's friend and adviser. In fact, when Descartes began to lead a free and dissipated life, it was Mersenne who brought him back to more serious pursuits and directed him toward philosophy. In Paris, Mersenne was Descartes's assiduous correspondent, auxiliary, and representative, as well as his constant defender. The numerous and vehement attacks against the "Meditations" seem, for a moment, to have aroused Malebranche's suspicions; but Descartes's answers to his critics gave him full satisfaction as to his friend's orthodoxy and sincere Christian spirit. Mersenne asked that, after his death, an autopsy be made on his body, so as to serve to the last the interests of science.

Extractions: Marin Mersenne His views: Marin Mersenne was a French monk, contemporary of Galileo and friend of Rene Descartes. Mersenne published his most influential works in the 1620s. These culminated a lengthy and effective campaign against hermeticism and other forms of old Renaissance magic. Mersenne believed the most prudent opinion was that our earth and its inhabitants should be viewed as unique with man being created in God's image (Dick, 95). Mersenne's problem was not with cosmologists who speculated on the possibility of other worlds, but rather with hermetics like Bruno and church clergy who openly practiced magic and used it to justify plurality. As Dick explains, [Mersenne argued that] it would not necessarily be better for God to create more worlds than one, because all things that come from God are infinite in every part, and if there were more worlds, they would be finite and not better. It was enough that God manifested himself externally through the creation of a single world, in which all things were ordered... nor did God need to produce all possible species; God was not obliged to do anything. (Dick, 95). As author Margaret Wertheim suggests

Extractions: Marin Mersenne attended school at the College of Mans, then, from 1604 spent five years in the Jesuit College at La Fleche. From 1609 to 1611 he studied theology at the Sorbonne. Mersenne joined the religious order of the Minims in 1611. The name of the order comes since the Minims regard themselves as the least (minimi) of all the religious; they devote themselves to prayer, study and scholarship. Mersenne continued his education within the order at Nigeon and then at Meaux. He returned to Paris where in 1612 he became a priest at the Place Royale. He taught philosophy at the Minim convent at Nevers from 1614 to 1618. In 1619 he returned again to Paris to the Minims de l'Annociade near Place Royale. His cell in Paris became a meeting place for Fermat Pascal Gassendi Roberval ... Beaugrand and others who later became the core of the French Academy. Mersenne corresponded with other eminent mathematicians and he played a major role in communicating mathematical knowledge throughout Europe at a time when there were no scientific journals.

Many early writers felt that the numbers of the form 2 p - 1 were prime for all primes p, but in 1536 Hudalricus Regius showed that 2 - 1 = 2047 was not prime. By 1603 Pietro Cataldi had correctly verified that 2 - 1 and 2 - 1 were both prime, but then incorrectly stated 2 n -1 was also prime for 23, 29, 31 and 37. In 1640 Fermat showed Cataldi was wrong about 23 and 37; then Euler in 1738 showed Cataldi was also wrong about 29. Sometime later Euler showed Cataldi's assertion about 31 was correct.

http://www.math.wichita.edu/history/men/mersenne.html

Extractions: Marin Mersenne Marin Mersenne was a mathematician, a natural philosopher, a theologian, a writer, and a teacher. It was said that he was an amateur mathematician. He studied prime numbers and tried to find a formula that would represent all primes. He was unable to do this but his work influenced others to continue what he had started. There was an interest in prime numbers before Marin Mersenne came on the scene. One formula for prime numbers was 2 n - 1 for all prime numbers n . Several mathematicians (Regius in 1536, Cataldi in 1603, Fermat in 1640) tested this formula and proved it true in some cases and not true in others. Mersenne stated in his book Cognita Physica-Mathematica that the numbers 2 n - 1 were prime for the primes 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 67, 127, and 257. It was this conjecture that connected his name to these primes. Mersennes peers expressed their doubts that he had actually tested his conjecture and Mersenne, at a later date, admitted he had not. It took until 1947 to completely check Mersennes list. It was determined during the 400 year period that Mersennes list was not entirely accurate and that the correct list was for

Extractions: Dáinn: 1. september 1648 í París, Frakklandi. Marin Mersenne stundaði fyrst nám við háskólann í Mans, en svo við Jesúítaskólann í La Fleche. Frá 1609 til 1611 las hann guðfræði í Sorbonne og klassísk fræði í Collége de France. Mersenne gekk í trúarsöfnuð Minimista árið 1611. Nafn safnaðarins var dregið af þeirri skoðun safnaðarins að meðlimir hans væru lægst settir ( minimi ) trúaðra manna. Þessi trúarsöfnuður helgaði sig algerlega bænum og lærdómi. Árið 1612 fór Mersenne síðan til Parísar þar sem hann gerðist prestur. Mersenne kenndi heimspeki í klaustrum Minimista í Nevers frá 1614 til 1618. Árið 1619 sneri hann svo aftur til Parísar. Híbýli Mersenne í París urðu samkomustaður nokkra helstu stærðfræðinga sautjándu aldar: Fermat, Pascals , Gassendis og fleiri. Þeir félagar urðu síðar kjarni Frönsku Akademíunnar Mersenne stóð í bréfaskriftum við marga stærðfræðinga, segja má að hann hafi orðið nokkurskonar miðstöð upplýsingaflæðis stærðfræðinnar í Evrópu. Að honum látnum fundust bréf frá 78 bréfriturum í herbergi hans. Þeirra á meðal voru Fermat, Galileó, Torricelli og Huygens. Nýútgefið bréfasafn hans er næstum tíuþúsund blaðsíður. Þegar Galileó og Descartes voru sakaðir um guðlast andmælti Mesenne þeim ásökunum. Hann barðist gegn ,,gervivísindum" svo sem stjörnuspeki og gullgerðarlist. Hann hélt rannsóknum Galileós á hljóðeðlisfræði áfram og örvaði þannig Galileó til frekari uppgötvana. Mersenne ráðlagði Huygens að nota pendúl til að mæla tíma sem varð til þess að fyrsta pendúlklukkan var smíðuð. Mersenne var afkastamikill rithöfundur. Hann skrifaði til dæmis um heimspeki og gaf út verk Evklíðs, Apóllóníusar, Arkimedesar og fleiri grískra stærðfræðinga. Hann var fjölfróður og kunni mörg tungumál, meðal annars hebresku.
