===Education and political activities=== As a youth, under Antun's tutelage,<ref name="Soric"/> Veranzio was interested in science. While still a child, he moved to [[Venice]], where he attended school, and then to [[Padua]] to join the [[University of Padua|University]], where he focused on [[law]], [[physics]], [[engineering]] and [[mechanics]]. At the court of [[Rudolf II, Holy Roman Emperor|King Rudolf II]], at the [[Hradčany]] castle in [[Prague]], Veranzio was the chancellor for Hungary and [[Transylvania]], often in contact with [[Johannes Kepler]] and [[Tycho Brahe]]. After his wife's death,<ref>{{cite book|author1=Beate Henn-Memmesheimer|author2=David Gethin John|title=Cultural Link Kanada, Deutschland: Festschrift zum dreissigjährigen Bestehen eines akademischen Austauschs|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6r9y2f5OjVsC&pg=PA115|year=2003|publisher=Röhrig Universitätsverlag|isbn=978-3-86110-355-4|page=115}}</ref> Veranzio left for Hungary. In 1598, he received the title of [[Diocese of Csanád|bishop of Csanád]] (''Episcŏpus Csanadiensis'') ''[[in partibus]]'' (even though he never set foot in [[Cenad|Csanád]]). In 1609, back in Venice, he joined the brotherhood of [[Paul the Apostle|Paul of Tarsus]] ([[barnabites]]) and committed himself to the study of science. Veranzio died in 1617 in Venice and was buried in [[Dalmatia]], near his family's country house on the island of Prvić.
