Galois was born into a family involved in the French First Republic in Bourg-la- Reine a commune in the French Empire. His father was amiable and highly philosophical in nature;he directed a school educating about sixty boarders. He was later elected mayor of Bourg-la-Reine. His mother, Adelaïde-Marie, was from a family of jurists and had received a more traditional education; she was well-versed in Latin and Classical Literature. She had a headstrong personality and was eccentric, even considered queer by many. Galois had a sister named Nathalie-Théodore and a brother called Alfred. Évariste received his primary education from his mother. She looked forward to inculcate in him, along with the elements of classical culture and Literature, …show more content…

Galois found himself wound up with the republicans which landed him in trouble with the government and in prison more than once. Just a month after his acquittal, Galois ran into trouble again. The republicans organized a patriotic demonstration for the celebrations of the 14th of July at the place de la Bastille. They wanted to plant a symbolic tree of liberty. A poster was prepared to incite the people to attend the demonstration, but the police confiscated all posters and wanted to stop the republicans, who were considered responsible. They broke into Galois House-as they did with the other suspects as well-during the night before to 14.

Through the struggling times of France, Galois was able to live out his (short) life and make an impact on the world. Most of Galois' work was never accepted much less even appreciated by society in the era but after his death professors were able to decipher his methods which could've been done much quicker had he been able to explain himself. To this day Evariste Galois is seen as a master mathematician and although his grave remains nameless and the location of that grave unknown many can thank him for his contributions to the culture and the
