Bogen var tiltænkt som lærebog i aritmetik for de studerende på Christian den IV's Akademi i Sorø. Bogen er på latin og indeholder 61 opgaver som han indpakker - for at være pædagogisk og fastholde studenternes interesse - i latinske hexametre med historisk mytologisk og anekdotisk indhold. De her indeholdte historier giver L. anledning til at fremsætte opgaver som studenterne skulle løse aritmetisk. I forordet fortæller han selv at han har bestræbt sig på at gøre sin matematik smagelig for den adelige ungdom ved praktiske opgaver og ved anekdoterLauremberg 1590-1658 var både mathematiker filolog og digter. Han blev af Chr. IV indkaldt til professoratet i matematik ved det adelige Akademi i Sorø hvor han forlod sin stilling i Rostock som det Filosofiske Fakultets dekan. I Sorø virkede han som professor i matematik og ingeniørvidenskab fra 1623 til sin død i 1658. Han var en ikke ubetydelig matematiker og foregangsmand særlig kendt er han for sin indførelse af logaritmerne i Danmark. Det er oså velkendt at Chr. IV havde udset Lauremberg til at udføre det første danske kartografiske værk ved opmåling af landet. Hans virksomhed som korttegner var allerede begyndt i Mecklenburg og det ses at han i en del år var optaget af denne virksomhed i Danmark. Kortværket blev imidlertid aldrig til noget til kongens store fortrydelse. Herefter overtog Johannes Meyer kortlægningen. Lauremberg er yderligere kendt som en af tidens mest fremragende latinske poeter således indeholder hans "Satyra" fra 1636 spirene til de senere plattyske "Skjæmtedigte".The very scarce first edition of one of the first textbooks in number theory published in Denmark The work should be used teaching mathematcs at the University in Sorø founded by the king Chr.

1776rif. 10347London: J Bew 1776. Memoirs of the notorious Queen Caroline of Denmark sister of the King of England who entered into a love affair with her husband's Doctor Struensee. This led to his execution and her banishment to Celle where she died of Scarlet Fever in 1775 at the age of 23. Quite the sensational tale. DESCRIPTION: Contemporary sheepskin; joints cracked and tender corners worn and overall good only. Ownership signature of 'R. M. Vevers/ Feb. 21/1794' probably Richard Vevers clergyman 1756-1838 on the front paste-down with the name and date repeated on the title-page. 12mo 167 x 96 mms. pp. ii 260 engraved portrait as frontispiece. Fingermarking to text; stub of preliminary blank present; final blank present. CONTEXT: Queen Caroline 1751-1775 was a posthumous daughter of George II and sister of George III King of England. Her later biographer Wraxall was at first inclined to doubt the authenticity of the book but on reflection he decided that the circumstantial evidence pointed to it being written by one of her circle avoiding the displeasure of George III by remaining anonymous. It was reviewed in The Monthly Review in 1776 with an abrupt opening: "In this truly Grubean though not ill-written performance poor Mathilda is made to turn Authoress. These Sketches are tolerably drawn after pretty good originals; and on the whole it is evident from the promising specimens before us that if Carolina Matilda had not unfortunately for herself been made a Queen she might in time have arrived at the honour of being even a Monthly Reviewer. N. B. The honest Grub is a warm advocate for the virtue and innocence of his heroine; in which he may be right; though it does not appear he ever travelled to Copenhagen." The work was also translated into French with London as the location and Bew as the printer. This second edition is not a reissue of the first also printed in London. ESTC locates copies of the first edition in BL and Cambridge; and California State Library. The present second edition is found in BL three copies and the Bodleian; and Harvard Huntington and Library of Congress in the United States.
