内容概要

This exposition of Galois theory was originally going to be Chapter I of the continuation of my book Ferrnat's Last Theorem, but it soon outgrew any reasonable bounds for an introductory chapter, and I decided to make it a separate book. However, this decision was prompted by more than just the length. Following the precepts of my sermon "Read the Masters!" [E2], Imade the reading of Galois' original memoir a major part of my study of Galois theory, and I saw that the modern treatments of Galois theory lacked much of the simplicity and clarity of the original. Therefore I wanted to write about the theory in a way that would not only explain it, but explain it in terms close enough to Galois' own to make his memoir accessible to the reader, in the same way that I tried to make Riemann's memoir on the zeta function and Kummer's papers on Fermat's Last Theorem accessible in my earlier books, [Eli and [E3]. Clearly I could not do this within the confines of one expository chapter

章节摘录

　　Great mathematicians usually have undramatic lives， or， more pre-cisely， the drama of their lives lies in their mathematics and cannot be appreci-ated by nonmathematicians. The great exception to this rule is Evariste Galois（1811-1832）. Galois life story——what we know of it——is like a romantic novel.Although he was making important mathematical discoveries when he wasstill in secondary school， he was denied admission to the Ecole Polytechnique，which was the premier institution of higher learning in mathematics at thetime， and the mathematical establishment ignored， mislaid， lost， and failedto understand his treatises. Meanwhile， he was persecuted for his politicalactivities and spent many months in jail as a political prisoner. At the age of20 he was killed in a duel involving， in some mysterious way， honor and awoman. On the eve of the fatal duel he wrote a letter to a friend outlining hismathematical accomplishments and asking that the friend try to bring hiswork to the attention of the mathematical world. Against great odds， Galoisfew supporters did finally， 14 years after his death， succeed in finding anaudience for his work， and portions of his writings were published in 1846 byJoseph Liouville in his Journal de Mathematiques. After that， recognition ofthe great importance of his work came very quickly， and Galois began to beregarded， as he is today， as one of the great creative mathematicians of alltime.
