1541In-8°; pp. 796, mancano le ultime due carte, legatura in mezza pelle con tassello al dorso, più tarda. Con molti legni e diagrammi nel testo. Seconda edizione, la prima del 1538, le Lucubrationes dell’umanista fiammingo rappresentano un’opera “enciclopedica” nel senso che raccolgono trattati nei diversi campi del sapere, di particolare interesse la sezione scientifica dedicata all’ottica, alla prospettiva, astronomia, geometria e matematica, anche per le molte illustrazioni. Sembra le la parola “enciclopedi” si trovi per la prima volta proprio sul frontespizio di quest’opera, sotto la forma di kiklopedia.

1944From the personal library of prominent optical lens designer Professor Charles Gorrie Wynne, FRS, who had this large work bound into two black buckram volumes in 1953, per bookbinder's receipt laid-in. Bookplates affixed by Dr. Wynne's family inside each front board further evince this provenance. [3], 6 (errata), xvii, 213 + 188, iii, 38 (supp. 1), 7 (appendix I), 6 (appendix II), 22 (supp. 2), 8 (supp. 3), 9 (supp. 4) pp. "These notes cover a course in Optics given at Brown University in the summer of 1944." - from Acknowledgement. Supplementary note on Electron Optics provided by Mr. Blank. Three supplementary notes provided by Dr. Herzberger. "The author's idea of treating geometrical optics as a special limiting case of wave optics has never before been carried out in so much detail. His treatment of diffraction optics is an important step forward. Highly recommended as a source of valuable information. Herzberger's first supplement is probably the best succinct presentation of electronic optics so far published in any language." - Bull. Amer. Math. Soc., Vol 51, #11. Bindings intact. Light exterior wear. Glossy buckram finish has faded unevenly resulting in a moderately mottled finish. Bit of ink writing atop front free endpaper of each volume. Minor insect damage to fore-edge of last few pages in Volume 1. One-inch tape repair to bottom of last page in Volume 2. Mimeographed contents moderately age-toned. Minor foxing to endpapers. Book

Note IV Simmetry and Asymmetry in Optical Images (M Herzberger) 9pp Errata 6pp. Classic and important treatise by the German/American physicist Rudolf Karl Lüneburg, based on the course given in the Summer 1944 at the Brown University Advanced Instruction and Research in Mechanics. Mimeographed pages, including two appendixes plus the supplementary notes mainly by Max Herzberger (Kodak Research Laboratories). The lens named after the author that has found several applications in microwave and millimeter-wave technology is for the first time described here. Luneburg published very little of his researches and this work had a restricted circulation at that time; it was published twenty years later by the University of California Press and reprinted more recently, recognised as one of the most important work in mathematical optics of the XX century.
