Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - John Bracegirdle's Psychopharmacon presents a new translation of Boethius's influential 'De Consolatione Philosophiae' from MS BL Additional 11401. This edition offers valuable insights into the reception and interpretation of Boethius's work in the early modern period, specifically through the lens of John Bracegirdle's unique engagement with the text. Bracegirdle's translation provides a fascinating example of how classical philosophical ideas were adapted and reinterpreted within a 17th-century intellectual context. The volume includes a critical introduction, the edited Latin text, Bracegirdle's English translation, and detailed notes.

Copenhagen 1969. 2 vols.in 1. xxxix,410 pp. Bound (Corpus Philosophorum Danicorum MA.IV; edges of binding rubbed).

First edition. THE BONCOMPAGNI MANUSCRIPT OF FIBONACCI'S LIBER ABACI THE MEDIAEVAL ORIGINS OF MODERN MATHEMATICS. An extraordinary and highly important illustrated sammelband of mediaeval mathematical texts, including the two final and most advanced chapters of the Liber Abaci of Leonardo of Pisa, also known as Fibonacci (c.1170-c.1250), "the first great mathematician of the Christian West" (DSB). This manuscript was owned and bound by one of the most important 19th-century historians of mathematics, Prince Baldassare Boncompagni, who published the first printed edition of Fibonacci's work (1857-62). It is composed of two separate codices, the second dating from the late 15th century and containing the Fibonacci, the first dating from the late 14th century with the other four texts. "Liber Abaci is one of the most important books on mathematics of the Middle Ages. Its effect was enormous in disseminating the Hindu number system and the methods of algebra throughout Europe" (Sigler, Fibonacci's Liber Abaci (2002), p. 3). "The first seven chapters dealt with the notation, explaining the principle of place value, by which the position of a figure determines whether it is a unit, 10, 100, and so forth, and demonstrating the use of the numerals in arithmetical operations. The techniques were then applied to such practical problems as profit margin, barter, money changing, conversion of weights and measures, partnerships, and interest. Most of the work was devoted to speculative mathematics-proportion, the Rule of False Position, extraction of roots, and the properties of numbers, concluding with some geometry and algebra" (Britannica). In the final two chapters, represented in the present manuscript, "Leonardo shows himself to be a master in the application of algebraic methods and an outstanding student of Euclid" (DSB). The earlier codex contains several other essential mathematical texts of the early Middle Ages. Written by the 6th-century Roman philosopher Boethius (c.480-524), De institutione Arithmetica was the principal mathematical textbook of pre-12th century Western Europe, comprising a philosophical discussion of numbers, their relationships and meanings. One of the text's most influential features was its division of the mathematical sciences into arithmetic, music, geometry, and astronomy, which it together designated as the quadrivium. The Compotus of the English statesman, scholastic philosopher, theologian and Bishop of Lincoln Robert Grosseteste (1175-1253) was innovative in that it incorporated Arabic astronomical influences into computistical theory. In it Grosseteste defines 'computus' as a science of counting and dividing time, and his discussion of the solar year is a key contribution to the raging medieval debate around calendar reform. The Computus Manualis of the thirteenth-century German master Johannes De Pulchro Rivo treats the method of carrying out these calendrical calculations on one's fingers, rather than by consulting tables. All of these works are rare, but the Fibonacci is the rarest, and this is probably the only copy in private hands of any substantial part of his Liber Abaci.

His vast library consisted of some 650 manuscripts and over 20,000 printed volumes: the manuscripts alone constituting one of the largest private collections of scientific and mathematical texts. The texts in the present manuscript were assembled and bound by Boncompagni: remnants of his shelf label on spine and numbers 176 (see E. Narducci, Catalogo di Manoscritti Or. …
