Ivan Vreman dating history

Details

Ivan Vreman (in some sources Ivan Ureman) (6 June 1583 – 22 April 1620) was a Croatian astronomer, physicist, mathematician, missionary, translator and Jesuit priest. His work in the field of astronomy and mathematics means complementing and improving the work of those scientists from the Early modern era who used a mathematical approach to search for new insights and knowledge about understanding reality. It also presents his interests and contributions in the broader context of research and scientific conditions and opportunities at the very beginning of the 17th century. As a Catholic missionary, he worked during the first Jesuit missions in the Far East, so his activities can also be viewed from the perspective of the exchange of knowledge and the entire activities of the early intermediaries between Europe and countries like China, Japan and India.
