Résumé
Sophus Lie (1842-1899) is without doubt one of Norway's
greatest scientific talents. His mathematical works have
made him famous around the world no less than Niels Henrik
Abel. The terms Lie groups and Lie algebra are today part
of the standard mathematical vocabulary.
In his comprehensive biography the author Arild Stubhaug let us come close to both the person Sophus Lie and his time. We follow him through childhood at the vicarage in Nodfjordeid, his growing up in Moss, school and studying in Christiania, travelling in Europe and his contacts with the leading mathematicians of his time. The academic and scientific career brought Lie from Christiania to Leipzig as professor, before the attempt to call him back to Norway, when she stood on the threshhold to national sovereignty, was successful.
