Galileo Galilei - Galileo's Family & Early Careers
Galileo was born in Europe Pisa, in the Tuscan region of Italy, the son of Vincenzo Galilei, a mathematician and musician born in Florence in 1520, and Giulia Ammannati, born in Pescia and married in 1563. Galileo was their first child. Although a devout Catholic, Galileo fathered three children out of wedlock. All were the children of Galileo and Marina Gamba. Because of their illegitimate birth, both girls were sent to the convent of San Matteo in Arcetri at early ages.
- Virginia (1600-1634) who took the name Maria Celeste upon entering a convent. Galileo's eldest child, the most beloved, and inherited her father's sharp mind. She died on April 2, 1634. She is buried with Galileo at the Basilica di Santa Croce di Firenze.
- Livia (b. 1601) took the name Suor Arcangela. Was sickly for most of her life at the convent.
- Vincenzio (b. 1606) was later legitimized and married Sestilia Bocchineri.
Galileo was home schooled at a very young age. After that he attended the University of Pisa, but was forced to cease his study there for financial reasons. However, he was offered a position on its faculty in 1589 and taught mathematics. Soon after, he moved to the University of Padua, and served on its faculty teaching geometry, mechanics, and astronomy until 1610. During this time he explored science and made many landmark discoveries.
