For the time, however, he tranquilly pursued his studies, writing those notes on Vieta which establish his proficiency in mathematics, and a metaphysical treatise now lost, which, if Foscarini's account of it may be relied upon, anticipated the sensationalism of John Locke.
Numerous other pamphlets appeared, inspired or controlled by Sarpi, who had received the further appointment of censor over all that should be written at Venice in defense of the republic.
Galileo Galilei would not have wasted his time in corresponding with a man from whom he could learn nothing; and, though Sarpi did not, as has been asserted, invent the telescope, he immediately turned it to practical account by constructing a map of the moon.

A murderous assault made upon him on 5 October, 1607, is often ascribed to his ecclesiastical enemies, but there is not sufficient testimony for their complicity (see the authentic testimony of the witnesses, edited by Bazzoni in "Archivio Storico Italiano", third series, XII, I, Florence, 1870, 8 sq.).
When peace had been restored between Venice and the pope, Sarpi's political influence grew less, and during the remainder of his life he gave vent to his hatred of Rome by publishing bitter invectives against the pope and the Catholic Church.

Paolo Sarpi (1552-1623) was a Venetian cleric, theologian, historian and scientist.
Sarpi was such an implacable foe of the idea of the temporal authority of the Pope that many of his contemporaries considered him more a Protestant than a Catholic, although he never renounced the Catholic Church.
Today, Sarpi is most often remembered as the author of the History of the Council of Trent, the first detailed account of the inner workings of the Council that did so much to define and consolidate the Catholic Church after the Reformation.

 Paolo Sarpi - Cambridge University Press
$69.95 (C) Paolo Sarpi (1552—1623) is remembered as the defender of Venice against the Papal Interdict of 1606 and as the first, and greatest, historian of the Counter-Reformation.
Starting from the Pensiere, in which Sarpi formulated a series of philosophical and historical arguments against Christianity, Mr Wootton seeks to reinterpret Sarpi’s life work as being the expression, not of a love of intellectual liberty, nor of a commitment to Protestantism, but of a carefully thought out hostility to doctrinal religion.
This book seeks, through its account of Sarpi’s beliefs, to penetrate the hypocrisy which contemporaries agreed characterised the age, and to lay the foundations for a new understanding of the intellectual origins of unbelief.

Mathematician Paolo Sarpi's application of “Occam's Razor” to Aristotle, to make Aristotle's anti-Platonic formalism the hypothesis of a generalized, empiricist-materialist method, is a pathology of that latter type.
Sarpi, shrewder than the leaders of Venice who preceded him, recognized that the strength, and corresponding vulnerability of emerging, modern European civilization, was its dependency upon the scientific method of Plato.
Sarpi recognized the potentially fatal strategic blunder of those Venetian leaders who sought to eliminate the influence of the Council of Florence, and of science, by bloody and other varieties of inquisitional methods.

 A Short History of the Council of Trent, by R.F. Littledale
Sarpi holds a brief against the Council, and as he had not access to its minutes, he is often inaccurate in chronological matters, though his knowledge of the inner working of the assembly, doubtless based on documents in the Venetian archives, is minute and, on the whole, trustworthy.
He is as definitely the apologist of the Council as Sarpi is its assailant, and his bias is quite as marked, nor is it always possible, as Ranke has acutely pointed out, to arrive at the real facts by comparing the two and striking a mean between their assertions.
Theiner is eloquent in his preface on the confutation which Massarelli's minutes supply of Sarpi's charges; but the wish is father to the thought in this case, since, in fact, they confirm many of his most serious allegations as to the interference of the legates and the absence of liberty in the Council.

 The Blunder in U.S. National Security Policy, by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. (Oct. 11, 1995) - 3 of 3
It was Sarpi, as mathematician and controller of such assets as England's Sir Francis Bacon and of Galileo Galilei, who established the axiomatic basis for both today's generally accepted, mechanistic, Galileo-Descartes-Newton-Euler faction in mathematical physics, and also the generally accepted assumptions underlying the social theory imposed upon today's universities.
The difference was, that Sarpi proposed to take top-down control over the institutions of modern science and technology, rather than seek to burn their authors at the stake, or condemn them to be placed routinely upon on the index of prohibited ideas.
Sarpi patronized the existence of approved scientists in the manner Venice's tradition produced its adult male sopranos, by removing the germinal factor from the intellect.
