| DỊCH BÀI: Hypatia was born in Alexandria, in Egypt, in 370 A.D. For many centuries, she was the only woman scientist to have a place in the history books. Hypatia's father was the director of Alexandria University, and he made sure his daughter had the best education available. This was unusual, as most women then had few opportunities to study. After studying in Athens and Rome, Hypatia returned to Alexandria where she began teaching mathematics. She soon became famous for her knowledge of new ideas. There are no copies of her books, but it is said that she wrote several important mathematical works. Hypatia was also interested in technology and invented several scientific tools to help with her work. At the time, many rulers were afraid of science, and something connected with it was in danger. One day in March 415, Hypatia was attacked in the street and killed. During the 20th century, Hypatia was seen as a symbol of the women's rights movement, a precursor to the feminist movement. Since the late 20th century, Hypatia's death has at times been associated with the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, although historically the library ceased to exist in Hypati. | Hypatia sinh ra ở Alexandria, tại Ai Cập vào năm 370 sau Công Nguyên. Trong nhiều thế kỷ, bà là nhà khoa học nữ duy nhất có tên trong sách lịch sử. Ba của Hypatia chính là giám đốc đại học Alexandria, và ông đã đảm bảo con gái mình sẽ có được nền giáo dục tốt nhất có thể. Điều này rất khác lạ, vì đa số phụ nữ thời đó có rất ít cơ hội để học tập. Sau khi học ở Athens và Rome, Hypatia đã trở lại Alexandria, nơi bà bắt đầu dạy môn toán. Bà sớm nổi tiếng nhờ kiến thức về những ý tưởng mới lạ. Không còn bản sao sách nào của bà, nhưng người ta nói rằng bà đã viết ra một số công trình toán học quan trọng. Hypatia cũng quan tâm đến công nghệ và phát minh một số công cụ khoa học giúp cho công việc của bà. Vào lúc bấy giờ, nhiều nhà cầm quyền rất sợ khoa học, và thứ gì liên quan đến nó đều gặp nguy hiểm. Một ngày vào tháng 3 năm 415, Hypatia đã bị tấn công trên đường và bị giết. Trong suốt thế kỷ 20, Hypatia được xem như biểu tượng của phong trào giành quyền phụ nữ, tiền thân của phong trào nữ quyền. Kể từ cuối thế kỷ 20, cái chết của Hypatia đôi khi liên quan đến sự phá hủy thư viện Alexandria, mặc dù về mặt lịch sử thì thư viện không còn tồn tại ở Hypati. |
