Présentation de l'éditeur

A mplissima et pulcherrima scientia figurarum. At quam eat inepte sorfcita nomen Geometrise! NICOD. FBISCHLINUS, Dialog. I. Perspective methodus, qua nee inter inventas nee inter inventu poasibiles ulla eompendiosior esse videtur .. .B. PASCAL, Lit. ad A cad. Paris., 1654. Da veniam scriptis, quorum non gloria nobis Causa, sed utilitas officiumque fuit. OVID, ex Pont., iii. 9. 55. THIS book is not intended for those whose high mission it is to advance the progress of science; they would find in it nothing new, neither as regards principles, noras regards methods. The propositions are all old; in fact, not a few of them owe their origin to mathematicians of the most remote antiquity. They may be traced back to EUCLID (385 B.C.), to APOLLONIUS of Perga (247 B. c.), to PAPPUS of Alexandria (4th century after Christ); to DESAKGUES of Lyons (1593-1663); to PASCAL (1623-1662); to DE LA HIKE (1640-1718); to NEWTON (1642-1727); to MACLAUEIN (1698-1746); to J. H. LAMBEET (1728-1777), Sec. The theories and methods which make of these propositions a homogeneous and harmonious whole it is usual to call modern, because they have been discovered or perfected by mathematicians of an age nearer to ours, such as CAENOT, BEIANOHON, PONCELET, MOBIUS, STEIHEE, CHASLES, STAUDT, c.; whose works were published in the earlier half of the present century. Various names have been given to this subject of which we are about to develop the fundamental principles. I prefer With the consent of the A uthor, only such part of the preface to the original Italian edition (1872) is here reproduced as may be of interest to theE nglish reader.
