The Lord of Uraniborg: A Biography of Tycho Brahe Paperback - 2007
by Victor E. Thoren; Thoren Victor E.; Contribution by John Robert Christianson
First line
AMONG the mass of detail that constitutes the personal, social, cultural, and intellectual background of Tycho Brahe's scientific achievement, the one indispensable fact is that he was born a Brahe, that is, born not merely into the Danish nobility but also into the small fraction of the noble class that had historically played significant roles in the administration, governance, and defense of the realm.
