Mathematics. MYDORGE Claude Jean LEURECHON and Denis HENRION
Examen du Livre des Recreations Mathematiques et de ses Problemes en Geometrie Mecanique Optique et Catoptrique. O� sont aussi discut�es & restablies plusieurs experiences Physiques y propos�es
Paris: Chez Rolet Boutonn� 1638. 2nd Edition. Hardcover. Paris Chez Rolet Boutonn� 1638 second edition/ 1630. Octavo 170 � 105 mm four parts bound as one volume xvi 280; 64 last blank; 63-106 12 index last three blank; and 39 1 blank pages with woodcut printer's devices on the four title pages and 84 illustrations throughout approximately 80 woodcut illustrations and a few type-set diagrams. There are five leaves missing from the 'Troisi�me Partie' F4 F5 G1 G4 and G5: pages 85-90 95-96 and 101-104. Nineteenth century half calf and marbled boards now lacking the leather corner-pieces revealing earlier full vellum boards underneath; covers a little worn; light tidemark to the bottom inner corner of the text block throughout; a little worming to the top blank margin of the first 25 leaves; insect damage to the bottom edge extending at most a few millimetres into the wide blank bottom margins; first title leaf dusty and a little soiled; the five missing leaves notwithstanding overall a very presentable copy. The second edition of Claude Mydorge's expanded edition and critique of this popular early work of recreational mathematics first published in 1624 and usually attributed to Jean Leurechon. Each of Leurechon's mathematical problems is reprinted here in roman type with Mydorge's explanatory notes and criticism following in italic. The third part albeit relatively insubstantial only 44 well-illustrated pages is devoted exclusively to fireworks and their construction which probably explains the few missing leaves. The subtitle is: 'Compos�e d'un receuil de plusieurs plaisantes & recreatives inventions de feux d'artifice plus la maniere de faire toutes sortes de fuz�es tant simples que doubles avec leur composition le tout represent� par figures sic' Comprising a collection of several pleasant and recreative inventions of fireworks plus the manner of making all sorts of rockets both single and double with their composition all represented in figures. This third part together with the second made its first appearance in a 1628 edition of 'R�cr�ations Math�matiques' published by Charles Osmont at Rouen. Their authorship has not been established HEEFER Albrecht: 'R�cr�ations Math�matiques 1624 A Study on its Authorship Sources and Influence' revised 7 October 2004. The fourth part 'Nottes sic sur les Recreations .' is by D.H.P.E.M. Denis Henrion Professeur �s Math�matiques. Claude Mydorge 1585-1647 French mathematician was a friend of Ren� Descartes with whom he shared a strong interest in optics and the nature of vision. 'Mydorge's first major work was the "Examen du livre des R�cr�ations math�matiques" published in 1630. As the title suggests it was a work on recreational mathematics and was effectively a critique of Laurechon's sic book on the theme 'R�cr�ations math�matiques' by the French Jesuit Jean Leurechon writing under the pen name of van Etten first appeared in 1624. However it was through his work on conic sections that Mydorge made the greatest scientific impact' The Cambridge Descartes Lexicon online. Provenance: a 1713 signature on the first page; an early ownership inscription 'Michael Hutchins His Book' on a preliminary page; 'G.S. Kingston Sept 1834' on the front pastedown: Sir George Strickland Kingston 1807-1880 the South Australian pioneer engineer and politician deputy-surveyor-general under Colonel William Light co-discoverer of the River Torrens first Speaker in the House of Assembly.
