René Descartes,, also known as Renatus Cartesius, was a French philosopher, mathematician, scientist, and writer who spent most of his adult life in the Dutch Republic.

In particular, his Meditations on First Philosophy continues to be a standard text at most university philosophy departments. Descartes' influence in mathematics is also apparent, the Cartesian coordinate system allowing geometric shapes to be expressed in algebraic equations being named for him. He is accredited as the father of analytical geometry. Descartes was also one of the key figures in the Scientific Revolution.
