When good a lad of 16, Viviani so stunned the Duke of Florence with his statistical knack that he was assigned as secretary to the aging and blind Galileo. Viviani stirred concerning Galileo's holiday home at Arcetri and lived existing for the closing three years of Galileo's life. As Gaileo's death in 1642, Viviani published some items statistical works of his own, but he gave high precedence to his piece as conservator of Galileo's friendship and work. In 1654, he wrote a biography of his hero; it was planned for inclusion in the 1656 variety of Galileo's Opere, but it was not published existing, quite appearing easily in 1717. Then again, Viviani's Verve of Galileo was the formerly in any case for information on Galileo until the 20th century. And in it are two eminent stories: one says that Galileo naked the law of pendulums by observing the vacillation chandeliers in the Pisa Cathedral; the other states that Galileo demonstrated the fallacy of Aristotle's laws of dipping bodies by d?collet weights from the top of the Augment of Pisa. Both stories became part of Galileo lore and are in spite of this commonly retold. Neither story, despondently, air to be true. We blow your own horn a fully to the point 1826 variety of Viviani's Vita di Galileo in the Relate of Science Annals, as well as the immense Opere di Galileo, published in 20 volumes between 1890-1909, and completed latent by Viviani's thoughtless collecting of Galileo's manuscripts and equivalent.
