	Sophie Germain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Germain was born to a middle-class merchant family in Paris, France, and began studying mathematics at age thirteen, despite her parents' strong attempts to dissuade her from engaging in a 'men's profession'.
		Germain was particularly interested in Joseph-Louis Lagrange's teachings and submitted papers and assignments under the pseudonym "Monsieur Le Blanc", a former student of Lagrange's.
		In 1811 Germain entered the French Academy of Sciences' contest to explain the underlying mathematical law of a German mathematician, attempting to explain Ernst Chladni's study on vibrations of elastic surfaces.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Saint Germain, Bishop of Paris
		Childebert fell dangerously ill about this time, at his palace of Celles, but was miraculously healed by Germain, as is attested in the king's letters-patent bestowing the lands of Celles on the church of Paris, in return for the favour he had received.
		He was a vicious, worthless creature, and Germain was forced to excommunicate him in 568 for his immorality.
		Germain wrote to Brunehaut (his letter is preserved) asking her to use her influence to prevent further war.

	NOVA Online \| The Proof \| Math's Hidden Woman
		Germain concluded that if somebody could be so consumed by a geometric problem that it could lead to their death, then mathematics must be the most captivating subject in the world.
		Germain managed to obtain what was intended for Le Blanc, and each week she would submit answers to the problems under her new pseudonym.
		When Germain wrote to Gauss she was still in her 20s, and, although she had gained a reputation in Paris, she feared that the great man would not take her seriously because of her gender.

	The Count of St. Germain - Crystalinks

		Germain attempted to extend her research, in a paper submitted in 1825 to a commission of the Institut de France, whose members included Poisson, Gaspard de Prony and Laplace.

	Amazon.ca: Blood Roses : A Novel Of Saint-Germain: Books: Chelsea Quinn Yarbo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Germain does not literally drink blood; he feeds on emotions, usually during erotic experiences, but sex is nonetheless only a minor plot element, rare and very discreet.
		Blood Roses is one of the most recently written in the St. Germain series; chronologically in history, it is in the middle, set in the late Dark Ages, France in the 14th century, during one of the several waves of the Black Plague that went around Europe during that century.
		Germain leaves the area having passed along some literacy in spite of the church; we can get the sense that the Dark Ages are going to end soon, as things are changing.

		Germain explained to Gauss of her fear of ridicule because of her sex and the disrepute attached to the femme-savantes of the time.
		Germain, herself, did not have the grasp on double integrals that was necessary for this type of work.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Saint Germain, Bishop of Auxerre
		It appears that Germain was accustomed to hang the trophies of the chase on a certain tree, which in earlier times had been the scene of pagan worship.
		When the duke came to the church, Amator caused the doors to be barred and gave him the tonsure against his will, telling him to live as one destined to be his successor, and forthwith made him a deacon.
		Germain was honoured in Cornwall and at St. Alban's in England's pre-reformation days, and has always been the patron of Auxerre.

	Sophie Germain and FLT
		The result now known as Sophie Germain's Theorem was presented in 1823 by Legendre in a paper to the French Academy of Sciences and included in a supplement to his second edition of The Theory of Numbers.
		Legendre generalized Germain's argument to show that properties (1) and (2) hold for the odd prime exponent n provided that one of the numbers 4n+1, 8n+1, 10n+1, 14n+1, or 16n+1 is a prime.
		In 1951, P Dénes extended Germain and Legendre's original result by proving that if n is an odd prime and p=2kn+1 is a prime, where k is not a multiple of 3 and k < 54, then the first case of Fermat's Last is true for the exponent n.

		Marie-Sophie Germain was the middle daughter of Ambroise-Francois, a prosperous silk-merchant, and Marie-Madelaine Gruguelin.
		However, Germain's most famous correspondence was with Karl Friedrich Gauss (considered the greatest of mathematicians).
		She had not derived her hypothesis from principles of physics, nor could she have done so at the time because she had not had training in analysis and the calculus of variation.
