Pere Vieta (1779–1856), promoter of free public teaching of physics in Catalonia [PDF]
, 2015 Free public teaching of physics in Catalonia started in the early 19th century, even if the interest in experimental physics goes back to the 18th century, where this discipline was discussed at various learned societies.
