Mathematics in India inevitably makes one think of one extraordinary figure of
recent times. This was Srinivasa Ramanujan. Borm in a poor Brahmin family in South
India, having no opportunities for a proper education, he became a clerk in the Madras
Port Trust. But he was bubbling over with some irrepressible quality of instinctive genius
and played about with numbers and equations in his spare time. By a lucky chance he
attracted the attention of a mathematician who sent some of his amateur work to
Cambridge in England. People there were impressed and a scholarship was arranged for
him. So he left his clerk’s job and went to Cambridge and during a very brief period there
did work of profound value and amazing originality. The Royal society of England went
rather out of their way and made him a Fellow, but he died two years later probably of
tuberculosis .
