Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a captivating and detailed historical account of the life and work of Federico Commandino, an esteemed mathematician born in Italy in 1509. Federico's significant contributions to the field of mathematics are carefully examined, including his original ideas and innovativ…e interpretations of established theories. The author provides insightful analysis of Federico's writings, particularly highlighting his commentaries on Euclid's Elements, Archimedes' works, and Ptolemy's Planisphaerium. These commentaries were groundbreaking for their time and helped shape the understanding of mathematics in Europe for centuries to come. The book also explores Federico's original works, such as his treatise on the center of gravity in solids, which laid the foundation for further advancements in mechanics. By placing Federico's work within the context of the broader development of mathematics, this book offers readers a comprehensive view of his lasting impact on the field and the legacy he left behind.

Ajouter au panierEdition : First Commandino edition., 17th century mottled calf; spine raised with six (6) bands, compartments gilt, gilt lettered title on two; all edges speckled red. , First edition by Commandino. David Clement judges this edition of the first four books bound with the two books of Sereni on cones and cylinders, to be extremel…y rare. Also footnote (32) states: [in Bibliotheca Uilenbroukiana P.I. p. 55. Catal. duarum Bibliothecaruin Dom. N. B. & D. L. Hagae - Com. ap. Beauregard, 1747. in 8vo. p. 9, Vogt Libror. rarior. p. 40.] describes this Commandin edition surpassing that of Jean-Baptiste Memmius, which was printed in Venice in 1537. It quotes Fabricius? statement in the Bibliotheca Graeca about Memmius or Memus not having understood the subject at hand, translated from a basically wanting manuscript with manifold, thereby rendering his version weak. It also mentions that this didn?t mean Commandin?s was fault-free remaring the Greek manuscript he had drawn on was filled with failts. Concerning Apollonius?s work Koudela states? Interest in ancient Greek knowledge increased gradually in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, especially in Italy, the leading country of Europe's culture and science of the time. Latin translations of Greek works on conic sections and other curves - Apollonius and Pappus in particular - appeared in several editions. Although some original works were also published in the sixteenth century, no significant progress in the study of conic sections had been made until the work of Kepler. His contribution influenced the further development of projective geometry and can be regarded as the transition from ancient to modern geometry. The spread of Greek knowledge in the Renaissance The invention of conic sections is attributed to Menaechmus (4th cent. BC), a member of Plato's Academy at Athens. Various species of conic sections were obtained by truncating an acute-angled, right-angled and obtuse-angled cone by a plane perpendicular to the generator of the cone. Conic sections were also investigated by Aristaeus the Elder (4th cent. BC) and by Euclid (c. 325 - c. 265 BC). Their works on this subject are now lost. The works of Archimedes (287 - 212 BC) contain some important results concerning the properties of conic sections, especially parabolas. The greatest ancient writer on conic sections was Apollonius of Perga (c. 262 - c. 190 BC). His famous work Conics consisted of eight books and contained 487 propositions. Apollonius introduced the terms ellipse, parabola and hyperbola and showed that various sections of the cone can be obtained by varying the inclination of the intersecting plane. Among other ancient authors dealing with conic sections, we should mention Pappus of Alexandria (c. 290 - c. 350 AD), the last of great Greek geometers. His main work known as Collection is valuable - among other things - because it provides an account and comments on the results obtained by his predecessors. Pappus introduced the notion of the focus and the directrix of a hyperbola (Kline, 1990, p. 128 ). Apollonius? work influenced the greatest scholars of the modern era, such as Descartes and Newton. The Latin translation of the first four books of Apollonius by Gianbattista Memo appeared in Venice in 1537. The present edition of Apollonius? Conics of the sixteenth century is based on the translation and important new edits by Federico Commandino (1506-1575), who published ?classical Greek mathematical texts under the auspices of the Duke of Urbino.? Horblit: ?The most influential early edition of this highly important text, entirely superceding Memmo?s version of 1537? Other sources state that, in total, the Conics consist of 387, not 487, propositions published in seven books, with the eighth book remaining unconfirmed.

Ajouter au panier18th 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.

The first book printed in Urbino in the 16th century, and only the fourth overall. Urbino's presses lagged behind those of other Italian cities, due in part to Duke Federico's predilection for manuscripts. It seems Federico Commandino, the foremost mathematician of the generation before Galileo, had a press set up in his house. He hired in a printer, Domenico Frisolino, and there he published his translation into Italian of Euclid, based on his own Latin translation of 1572. Commandino died just as the sheets were coming off the press. His brother-in-law hastily attached a dedicatory letter (to Francesco Maria II della Rovere) explaining that Commandino wanted the text to be available to "all who are served by mathematics," that is, even those who do not understand classical languages. Euclid's text is glossed by Commandino's running commentary, and illustrated with figures.

Bound in contemporary limp vellum, title stenciled in gothic letters on spine, ties gone, and housed in half-morocco and linen bookbox with gilt-stamped title on spine. Minor p…aper flaw to t-p touching two partial letters; some minor fingersoiling on a few leaves, and light waterstain in margin of final two leaves; otherwise a large and very fresh unsophisticated copy, brilliant. Very attractive and genuine copy of the scarce first edition. This is the complete extant text of the Alexandrian geometer Pappus (4th century AD) in the Latin translation of Federico Commandino, a crucial source for the history of ancient geometry (not infrequently the only extant witness) and a work which remained mathematically important to such later geometers as Descartes and Newton. This posthumous publication completes Commandino's life's work of reviving Renaissance mathematics by making available the best mathematical thought of antiquity. "Heath judiciously observes that the Collection, while covering practically the whole field of Greek geometry, is a handbook rather than an encyclopedia; and that it was intended to be read with the original works, where extant, rather than take their place. But where the history of a particular topic is given, Pappus reproduces the various solutions, probably because of the difficulty of studying them in many different sources. Even when a text is readily available, he often gives alternative proofs and makes improvements or extensions." -- DSB, X.294; The book of greatest interest to modern geometers is book VII, in a passage on Apollonius' Conics. This concerns the attempt to conceive of the product of more than three straight lines as geometrical entities, known as "Pappus' Problem". Descartes devoted a major part of his own Géométrie to this, and solved it by the use of algebraic notation. "Pappus' problem thus inspired the new method of analytical geometry that has proved such a powerful tool in subsequent centuries." -- DSB, p. 296 (and for Newton, see the following paragraph.).*Adams P-223; Rose, Italian Renaissance of Mathematics, p. 209-13 for the circumstances of publication; Ivor Bulmer-Thomas, DSB X.293-304.

Il trattato affronta temi di pneumatica e meccanica applicata ed è corredato da 89 xilografie che raffigurano dispositivi quali sifoni, fontane e macchine motrici. BIBLIOGRAFIA: Riccardi, 364 ; Poggendorff, I,1084 ; Choix, IV, 4653. Formato: In 8°.

Ajouter au panierEtat : Very Good. First edition. RARE HISTORICALLY-IMPORTANT EDITION OF THE WORLD'S MOST INFLUENTIAL MATHEMATICAL TREATISE: THE FIRST "COMMANDINO" EDITION. Having established himself as a noted scholar, Federico Commandino of Urbino at the behest of his pupil Prince Francesco Maria translated into Latin Euclid's Elements, config…uring it into 15 books and adding extensive commentary. A gorgeously printed work, profusely illustrated with 865 in-text diagrams, Commandino's edition, first published in 1572, was "made use of by subsequent editors for centuries" (Thomas-Stanford).

Ajouter au panierFirst separate edition and first edition of Commandino's commentary of Ptolemy's Planisphaerium, the original Greek text of which is no longer extant. Octavo, two volumes bound into one in eighteenth century vellum, all edges speckled red, Aldine device on both titles and both final pages, woodcut initials, numerous woodcut diag…rams. The Ptolemaei is printed in Roman type and the Planisphaerium in Italics; examples from the Aldine Press in Roman type are scarce as the press's founder, Aldus Manutius, invented the Italic type which he used almost exclusively. The Aldine press was also the first toÂissue printed books in the small octavo size. After Aldusâ death in 1515 the press was continued by his wife, Maria and her father, Andrea Torresani, until his son, Paulus Manutius (1512â"1574) assumed management in 1534. It is from this era that most, if not all, of the works from his press bear the imprint In Aedibus Haeredum Aldi et Andrea Asulani Soceri. In near fine condition with minor marginal dampstaining to a few pages. Exceptionally rare and desirable. Originally written in Ancient Greek, Ptolemy's 12th century Planisphaerium was one of the major scientific works that survived from antiquity in Arabic translation. An exploration of the mathematics of mapping figures inscribed in the celestial sphere, the Planisphaerium attracted interest because stereographic projection was the mathematical basis of the plane astrolabe, an instrument which was widely used in the medieval Islamic world. This Latin version, along with Jordanus de Nemore's work on the same topic, was first printed in Basel in 1536. The editor of the present volume, Federico Commandino, was a physician to the Duke of Urbino at his household in Rome, and the author of several translations of ancient Greek mathematical treatises and commentaries published in the early 16th century. In working with Ptolemy's stereographic projection of the celestial sphere on a plane with the south celestial pole at the center, Commandino noticed that conic sections could be considered sections in visual cones or perspective images. This inspired him to include in his work a study of perspective, which occupies the majority of his commentary and represents one of the earliest mathematical formulations of a method already widely employed by artists (Adams P2242; Censimento 16; CNCE 28281; Renouard 1558/4; Ahmanson-Murphy/UCLA 449; Houzeau & Lancaster 769; Honeyman 2557; Riccardi I, 360, 1).
