In the year dedicated to astronomy, the contribution is a tribute to Hypatia, the first woman scientist and symbol of love for truth, reason and science, who was born and lived in Alexandria in Egypt in the late 4th and early 5th century. The figure and the historical and cultural context in which the first woman scientist lived her life in its practical, scientific and political aspects is reconstructed through the works of Synesius, a student of Hypatia and future bishop of Ptolemais.
