ZENODORUS
D’Athènes
Vers 200 – vers 140 av J.C.
On ne sait que peu de choses sur la vie de Zénodorus. Le peu d’éléments provient d’une traduction arabe de l’œuvre de Dioclès . Au cours d’un de ses séjours en Arcadie, Zénodorus rencontra Dioclès et lui demanda s’il serait en mesure de concevoir un miroir dont la surface serait telle qu’elle concentrerait les rayons du Soleil en un seul point afin qu’ils puissent éventuellement allumer un feu. D’autres sources font aussi référence à un travail perdu de Zénodorus sur les figures isométriques. Une récente découverte, dans le site d’Herculanum, d’un papyrus écrit par un certain Philomidès fait référence à un Zénodorus, ami de l’auteur, qui semble bien être le même personnage que le mathématicien dont il est ici question et qui aurait accompli au moins deux séjours à Athènes.
En dépit de la perte de ses écrits, on connaît quelques éléments des travaux de Zénodorus grâce aux références qu’en fait Théon d’Alexandrie.
Dans « Les figures Isométriques », Zénodorus s’appuyait sur les travaux d’

We know little of Zenodorus 's life but he is mentioned in the Arabic translation of Diocles On burning mirrors where it is stated [3]:- And when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was introduced to us, he asked us how to find a mirror surface such that when it is placed facing the sun the rays reflected from it meet a point and thus cause burning. Toomer notes that his translation of 'when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was introduced to us' could, perhaps, be translated 'when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was appointed to a teaching position there'.
Before the discovery of the Arabic text of Diocles On burning mirrors, Zenodorus was known to us mainly because of references to his treatise On isometric figures which is lost. There is another interesting source of information however. When Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, Herculaneum together with Pompeii and Stabiae, was destroyed. Herculaneum was buried by a compact mass of material about 16 metres deep which preserved the city until excavations began in the 18th century. Special conditions of humidity of the ground conserved wood, cloth, food, and in particular many papyri. The papyri contain remarkable information and in particular there is a biography of the philosopher Philonides. This biography speaks of Zenodorus as a friend of Philonides and, although complete certainty is impossible, we can be confident that this reference to Zenodorus is to the mathematician described in this article. Two visits by Zenodorus to Athens are described in the biography.
