Abstract

"Quelques mois avant sa mort en 1576, Gerolamo Cardano (notre ‘'Cardan'', né en 1501 à Pavie) se lance dans la rédaction de ce Livre de ma vie, en cinquante-quatre chapitres, dont il n'aura pas le temps de donner une version définitive, pour autant que l'expression ait un sens chez cet éternel insatisfait, toujours prêt à amender, voire à détruire celles de ses œuvres qu'il juge inabouties. En dépit de cela, le De vita propria, ouvrage apologétique où Cardan entend démontrer à l'Inquisition la pureté d'une âme hors d'atteinte des tentations hérétiques, constitue, en Europe, la première véritable autobiographie : l'auteur, à l'origine d'une longue tradition qui culminera peut-être avec Rousseau, y fait profession de sincérité absolue, dans un dévoilement exhaustif de sa personnalité tourmentée. Défile donc ici l'exposé sans complaisance de ses faiblesses et succès, avec, sotto voce, la confidence de ses ambitions et déboires de médecin, de savant et de philosophe, dans une atmosphère étrange marquée de l'irruption récurrente du surnaturel : Cardan vit en effet dans un monde peuplé des ‘'signes'' multiples que lui adresse, sous forme cryptée, une généreuse Providence, et dont il se reproche de n'avoir pas saisi le sens au moment de son drame essentiel, celui de l'exécution de son fils accusé de l'assassinat de son épouse. Cette édition, appuyée pour la première fois sur les quatre manuscrits du livre connus à ce jour, se propose de rendre compte du texte tel que Cardan l'a laissé, et que les éditeurs ont par la suite ‘'corrigé'' et ‘'clarifié'' à leur guise. Elle s'accompagne d'une traduction aussi fidèle que possible à un texte riche mais rugueux, ainsi que d'une présentation et d'une annotation destinées à réintroduire l'œuvre dans l'univers fragile et instable où baigne son singulier auteur."

Abstract

Girolamo Cardano (1501-1576), renowned as a mathematician, encyclopedist, astrologer, and autobiographer, was by profession a medical practitioner. His copious writings on medicine reflect both the complexity and diversity of the Renaissance medical world and the breadth of his own interests. In this book, Nancy Siraisi draws on selected themes in Cardano's medical writings to explore in detail the relation between medicine and wider areas of Renaissance culture.Cardano's medical advice included the suggestion that "the studious man should always have at hand a clock and a mirror"-a clock to keep track of the passage of time and a mirror to observe the changing condition of his body. The remark, which recalls his astrological and autobiographical interests, is emblematic of the many connections between his medicine and his other pursuits. Cardano's philosophical eclecticism, beliefs about occult forces in nature, theories about dreams, and free transitions between academic and popularizing scientific writing also contributed to his medicine. As a physician, he greeted two different types of medical innovation in his lifetime with equal enthusiasm: improved access to the Hippocratic corpus and Vesalian anatomy. Cardano presented himself as a practitioner with special gifts. Yet his medical learning remained rooted in the Galenic tradition that he often criticized. Meanwhile, he negotiated a career in a medical community characterized by personal and social rivalries, a competitive medical marketplace, and strong institutional and religious pressures.Originally published in 2050.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
