Summary
[edit]DescriptionA Translation Into English of Gerolamo Cardano's “Dialogue between Girolamo Cardano and His Father Fazio”.pdf |
English: The purpose of this work is summed up in the title. It's a translation into English of a work originally written in Latin by Gerolamo Cardano in the year 1562. The original work was titled "Dialogus Hieronymi Cardani et Facii Cardani". And, having been interested in his life and the various works that he had written, I took it upon myself to translate this particular work to the best of my ability. I did this by taking the work (located in the 1st volume of Cardano's Opera Omnia, page 637) and copying and pasting the text, and running it through ChatGPT. I then took the liberty of amending the text where it needed- primarily fixing syntax errors and sentences that didn't make sense when translated from Latin to English. Overall, I tried to remain as faithful to the original writing as I could and trusted the power of ChatGPT's translation ability. I also took the effort of running the text through various other translation software (GoogleTranslate and Edge Translate) just to ensure what ChatGPT gave was appropriate, and on the whole, it was. I thought that this particular work of his would be of some benefit to those who read it and are interested in moral philosophy; as well as those seeking guidance on how to overcome and endure hardships that may arise in their personal life. If one may struggle with doubt, or anguish over the subtleties of fortune, which are so often negative and associated with pain, know this, you are not alone. May you see this fact upon reading this translation. I should also mention that I give my own personal account of the struggles I deal with in my own life in the preface, as well as a brief biography and history of Cardano. |
