In den Warenkorb18th century vellum over boards, spine with six (6) almost flat bands; gilt lettered title on morocco label on two; all edges speckled rose., Euclid or Euclid of Alexandria (~ 300 B.C.), "was a Greek mathematician, often referred to as the 'founder of geometry' or the 'father of geometry'. He was active in Alexandria during the…reign of Ptolemy I (323?283 BC). His Elements is one of the most influential works in the history of mathematics, serving as the main textbook for teaching mathematics (especially geometry) from the time of its publication until the late 19th or early 20th century. In the Elements, Euclid deduced the theorems of what is now called Euclidean geometry from a small set of axioms. Euclid also wrote works on perspective, conic sections, spherical geometry, number theory, and mathematical rigour.? The Italian Federico Commandino (1509?1575) "studied at Padua and at Ferrara, where he received his doctorate in medicine. He was most famous for his central role as translator of works of ancient mathematicians. In this, his sources were primarily written in Greek and secondarily in Arabic, while his translations were primarily in Latin and secondarily in Italian. He was responsible for the publication of many treatises of Archimedes. He also translated the works of Aristarchus of Samos (On the sizes and distances of the Sun and the Moon), Pappus of Alexandria (Mathematical collection), Hero of Alexandria (Pneumatics), Ptolemy of Alexandria (Planisphere and Analemma), Apollonius of Perga (Conics) and Euclid of Alexandria (Elements). Among his pupils was Guidobaldo del Monte and Bernardino Baldi. Commandino maintained a correspondence with the astronomer Francesco Maurolico. The proposition known as Commandino's theorem first appears in his work on centers of gravity." The present work is the first edition of the Italian translation by Commandino; it is one among only few works printed in Urbino during the 16th century. , Size : Folio (303x212mm). , Illustrated printed title with woodcut device; large historiated woodcut initials at openings of chapters/ book with depictions of engagement in mathematical studies; moreover, numerous in-text woodcuts throughout the work depicting mathematical figures, concepts, and number lines.Text in Italian; panelled.Roman and Italic script.
