One such near miss was the mathematical prodigy Ramanujan , who might well have died , ' mute and inglorious ' had he not been rescued from dire poverty and trained by his mentor , the Cambridge mathematician , G.H . Hardy . यदि केम्ब्रिज के गणितज्ञ जी.एच . हार्डी ने दारुण दरिद्रता से रामानुजम का उद्धार करते हुए उसे उचित प्रशिक्षण न दिया होता तो एक महान गणितीय प्रतिभा मौन तथा अप्रकट रहकर नहीं नष्ट हो जाती .
