The telegraph is one of the four greatest inventions of the 19th century, an invention that had a
decisive importance in the field of communications: the telegraph. It had been the
precursor of the idea of an anonymous Scottish person from the 17th century, later materialized by a
German, S. T. Von Soemmering, who used electric current for its operation.
But a man named Samuel Morse, an American man, developed it in a
electric telegraph, developed Morse code,
the radio: a revolutionary invention that would change communication, was the first
invention that transmitted a human voice in real time in the year 1915, in Virginia

information.
Cinema: Louis Lumiere who presented in Paris, for the first time, in 1895, a show
of cinematography. In 1920, cinema became sound, although the audience was quite
indifferent at first. With the movie The Jazz Singer, by Al Jolson, it was perceived the
importance of sound complementing the visual.

Gazette: The gazette was originally a Venetian newspaper that was published once a
the week at the beginning of the 17th century. In this way, 'gazette' was understood as
newspaper of politics, news, theaters, fashion, courts or just any of these
subjects.
Radio: The radio is a means of communication that is based on the transmission of
audio signals through radio waves, although the term is also used for
other methods of sending audio remotely such as radio over the Internet.
E. Consult the Biography of the following characters: Samuel
Morse, Edwin Armstrong, J. Bardeen, W. H. Brittain, W.
Shockley, Alexander Graham Bell, Louis Lumiere, Maurice
Leblanc.
Samuel Morse:He was an American inventor and painter, contributed to the
invention of the telegraph with Joseph Henry and the method of transmission
known as Morse code. It helped to develop the commercial use of the
telegraphy.
Samuel Morse was born in Charlestown, a neighborhood in the urban area of
Boston. He was the first son of the geographer and pastor Jedidiah Morse and of
Elizabeth Ann Finley Bréese.
Morse was a leader in the anti-Catholic and anti-immigration movement of
mid-nineteenth century. In 1836, he unsuccessfully ran for mayor of New
York, under the banner of the anti-immigrant nativist Party, receiving only
1,496 votes.
When Morse visited Rome, he refused to take off his hat in the presence of the
Dad. Upon seeing this, an offended member of the Swiss Guard ran and hit
the hat.
Morse worked to unite Protestants against Catholic institutions.
(including schools), I wanted Catholics to be prohibited from exercising
public positions, and promote changes in immigration laws to
limit immigration from Catholic countries.
Morse married Lucretia Pickering Walker in September 1818 in
Concord, New Hampshire. They had three children.
Upon becoming a widower at the birth of his third child, he married his
second wife, Sarah Elizabeth Griswold in August 1848 in Utica, New
York had four children.
In addition to the telegraph, Morse invented a machine to cut marble that

patent it due to an existing design from 1820 by Thomas Blanchard.
Samuel Morse was a generous man who gave large sums of money to
charity. He was also interested in the relationship between science and religion and
donated the funds to establish a chair on "the relationship of the Bible
with the Sciences".
Morse was not a selfish man. Other people and corporations made
millions with their inventions, but most rarely paid him for their use.

At the time of his death, his fortune was valued at around 500,000.

Edwin Armstrong:He was born on December 18, 1890 in the city
from New York.
He studied at Columbia University, where he was a professor of
Electrical Engineering in 1936.
He developed various important circuits and electronic systems in the
evolution of radio.
In 1912, he developed a regenerative circuit that revolutionized the
radiotelephony without wires because it could amplify weak radio signals without
distortion, with much more efficiency than other radio receivers of the
Era.
In the 1930s, he developed the broadcasting system in modulation of
frequency (FM), which provided better sound quality and was more
resistant to the interference that the previous broadcasting system
in amplitude modulation (AM).
On January 31, 1954, Edwin Armstrong committed suicide in New York after
to suffer rejection for years and all kinds of maneuvers to leave him out of the
business.
J Bardeen: On May 23, 1908, the American physicist John is born.
Bardeen, who along with Walter Brattain built a device using the
chemical element germanium, which allowed the completion of the development of
transistor that both William Shockley and Brattain had tried
build, starting from the amplification of thermionic valves, but not
they had succeeded. For this discovery, the 3 researchers were
awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956. Subsequently, it has

In 1929, he joined the laboratories of the Bell Telephone Company,
where alongside American physicistsWilliam ShockleyyJohn
Bardeenthey invented a small electronic device called a transistor.
It was announced for the first time in 1948 and was completed in 1952, using
commercially in portable radios, headphones, and other devices.
He was a physics professor at Harvard University.
For his work with semiconductors and for the discovery of
transistor shared the Nobel Prize in 1956 with Shockley and BardeenNobelof

transistor department of the mentioned company.
Shockley collaborated withJohn Bardeen by Walter Houser Brattain in the
construction of semiconductor devices that will replace the tubes of
empty. With their work, they demonstrated that germanium crystals were
better rectifiers than those used to date, depending on their
effect of the traces of impurities contained in them. Through the
use of a germanium rectifier, with metal contacts that included
a needle connected to the crystal, the team invented the transmitter of
punctual contact.
Shortly after, Shockley built the junction transistor, which used a
union between two parts, treated differently, of a silicon crystal.
Such solid-state semiconductors have the virtue of rectifying and
amplify the current that flows through them. Thanks to these devices

radio circuits, television and computer equipment,
providing a formidable boost to the development of electronics andthe
computer scienceWilliam Shockley received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956, which
shared with John Bardeen and Walter H. Brattain for their research on
semiconductors and the discovery of the transistor effect.
Alexander Graham BellBorn into a family dedicated to the
speech and pronunciation correction, Bell was educated alongside his siblings in the
family professional tradition. Studied at the Royal High School of Edinburgh, and attended
some classes at the University of Edinburgh and University College London, but
his training was basically self-taught.
In 1864, he took the position of resident at the Weston House Academy in Elgin, where
he developed his first studies on sound; in 1868 he worked as an assistant to his
father in London, taking his position after his departure to America. The sudden
death of his older brother due to tuberculosis, an illness that he had also
finished with the life of his younger brother, negatively impacted both in the
health like in Bell's mood.
In these circumstances, in 1870 he moved to a town near Brantford.

learning for the deaf conceived by his father, included in the work Visible
Speech (1866). The spectacular results of his work soon earned him a
well-deserved reputation, receiving offers to give various conferences, and in 1873
he was appointed professor of vocal physiology at Boston University.
At this time, with the enthusiastic collaboration of the young mechanic Thomas Watson and the
sponsorship of the parents of George Sanders and Mabel Hubbard (with whom he would end up
marrying in the year 1877), two deaf students who had received lessons from Bell, designed
an apparatus for converting sound into electrical impulses. The invention, called
telephone was registered in the US patent office in 1876.
Louis Lumiere: Born on October 5, 1864, in Besançon.
Son of a photographic plate maker, in less than twenty
years perfected a new type of gelatino-bromide plates.
In 1894, Louis and his brother Augusto had the opportunity to
to examine the Kinetoscope and were very interested in the idea
to be able to project animated images.
In the summer of 1894, a first chamber was built that
it culminated in the Cinematograph.
Patented in February 1895, the Cinematograph was presented in
March in Paris. The paid public performances
