PRETEEN 3 – LESSON 6

Blaise Pascal
As a child, Blaise Pascal wasn’t taught math at all. He was educated privately by his father, Étienne,
a mathematician and tax collector, who had decided that it was best for children to master Greek and
Latin first and move on to math and science later. However, Blaise ended up excelling in
mathematics without any instruction at all. Realizing that his son had a talent, Étienne began
introducing mathematical concepts. At age 15 Blaise published his first original mathematical work,
Essai pour les coniques. It was so impressive that people thought it was Étienne who wrote the
paper. Two years later Blaise invented a mechanical calculator. It was the first calculating machine
to be manufactured in large numbers and the first to be used for business. In the 1640s and ’50s,
Pascal established himself as one of Europe’s greatest mathematical and scientific minds, while also
writing on religious and philosophical subjects.
