Soft cover. Zustand: New. Aryabhatiya or Aryabhatiyam, a Sanskrit astronomical treatise, is the magnum opus and only known surviving work of the 5th century Indian mathematician Aryabhata (476550 CE) who was the first of the major mathematician-astronomers from the classical age of Indian mathematics and Indian astronomy and played an important role in shaping scientific astronomy in India. Based on the parameters used in the text, the philosopher of astronomy Roger Billard estimated that the book was written around 510 CE. The present work 'The ryabhatya of ryabhata: An Ancient Indian Work on Mathematics and Astronomy translated with notes by W. E. Clark is a preliminary study based on inadequate material. Of several passages no translation has been given or only a tentative translation has been suggested. The present translation will have served its purpose if it succeeds in attracting the attention of Indian scholars to the problem, arousing criticism and encouraging them to make available more adequate manuscript material. Walter Eugene Clark (1881-1960) was the Professor of Sanskrit in Harvard University.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 'The Aryabhatiya of Aryabhata: An Ancient Indian Work on Mathematics and Astronomy' translated and annotated by Walter Eugene Clark, is a comprehensive examination of one of the earliest preserved Indian texts in mathematics and astronomy. Originally composed in 499 AD by the eminent scholar Aryabhata, this work is divided into four sections, encompassing a wide array of astronomical and mathematical knowledge from ancient India. Clark's translation, based on the 1874 edition by Kern, addresses the text's historical significance, its methodological innovations, and its profound impact on subsequent scientific works. The translator provides detailed notes and references to earlier and parallel works, such as the Suryasiddhanta and Varahamihira s abstracts, offering insights into the context and evolution of Indian astronomy. Clark s preface highlights the rigorous process of validating the text s authenticity and addresses discrepancies, particularly in Aryabhata s theories on the Earth s rotation and place-value notation. The book is aimed at stimulating further scholarly research by encouraging a deeper exploration of available manuscripts and commentaries. This translation is not only a critical resource for historians of science but also a foundational text for understanding the legacy of Aryabhata s astronomical and mathematical contributions.…
