Women who like science 2

25 March, 2010

Here is an interesting article about Hypatia of Alexandria, a renowned teacher of mathematics, astronomy and philosophy. I’m looking forward to watching Agora starring Rachel Weisz about the life of this great 5th century thinker (if it’s ever released in the UK).

Agora sounds really interesting. It doesn’t seem to be listed to be released anytime soon over here though.

  I know, I think it was made last year and was shown in Cannes, but no info regarding a UK release…

Thank you so much for the link! And also for bringing the film to my attention, since I hadn’t heard of it before.
