Minimali forellini di tarlo al margine superiore dell'ultima tavola e alla sguardia posteriore. Ottimo esemplare. Edizione veneziana della traduzione latina delle "Leçons élémentaires de Mathematiques ou élémens d'Algebre et de Géométrie", fortunato trattato del La Caille, esemplato sulla quinta edizione parigina. Nicolas Louis La Caille (Rumigny-en-Thiérache, Ardennes, 1713-Parigi, 1762) fu celebre matematico ed astronomo. Nel Capo di Buona Speranza estese all'emisfero australe le determinazioni di posizioni stellari già iniziate a Parigi, redigendo così un catalogo di 398 stelle edito nel 1833 dal Baily e la grande collezione del "Coelum Australe Stelliferum". Professore di matematica al Collège Mazarin di Parigi appena venticinquenne, membro dell'Académie des Sciences dal 1741, le sue osservazioni, così come quelle compiute da La Lande nell'osservatorio di Berlino, permisero di determinare più esattamente la distanza dalla Terra alla Luna.

1974Fine Arabic Original decorative full red leather bound. Gilt traditional style on boards. Large demy 8vo. (22 x 15 cm). Bilingual preface in German and Turkish. [12], [2], p., [49] p. facsimile in Arabic., ills. Das Achte Buch zu den Conica des Apollonios von Perge. Rekonstruiert von Ibn al-Haysam. Herausgegeben und eingeleitet von Nazim Terzioglu. Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) was born c. 965 to an Arab family in Basra, Iraq, which was at the time part of the Buyid emirate. He held a position with the title vizier in his native Basra, and made a name for himself for his knowledge of applied mathematics. As he claimed to be able to regulate the flooding of the Nile, he was invited to by Fatimid Caliph al-Hakim in order to realise a hydraulic project at Aswan. However, Ibn al-Haytham was forced to concede the impracticability of his project. Upon his return to Cairo, he was given an administrative post. After he proved unable to fulfill this task as well, he contracted the ire of the caliph Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah, and is said to have been forced into hiding until the caliph's death in 1021, after which his confiscated possessions were returned to him. Legend has it that Alhazen feigned madness and was kept under house arrest during this period. During this time, he wrote his influential Book of Optics. Alhazen continued to live in Cairo, in the neighborhood of the famous University of al-Azhar, and lived from the proceeds of his literary production until his death in c. 1040. Among his students were Sorkhab (Sohrab), a Persian from Semnan, and Abu al-Wafa Mubashir ibn Fatek, an Egyptian prince. Signed and inscribed by Nazim Terzioglu, (1912-1976), was one of the first mathematicians in Turkish academia. One of the contributions of Terzioglu as the director of the Mathematics Research Institute to Turkey's mathematical culture and the history of science was the systematic scan of the Islamic literature relevant to mathematics and the presentation of the information related to conic sections in ancient mathematics to the scientific community. As a result of these efforts, the facsimile of two ancient texts of mathematics originally written in Arabic were realized. The first one is the preface of Mecmuatu'r-risail, the Arabic translation by Beni Musa b. Sakir (died in 873) of Conica, which is the work of Apollonius of Perga (BC 262-190) on the conic sections. This preface, published with the title Das Vorwort des Astronomen Bani Musa b. Sakir, describes how the Apollonius' Conica was acquired by the Islamic world. After that, Terzioglu published the facsimile of the copy of the lost 8th book of Apollonius' Conica which was rewritten by Ibnu'l-Heysem (965-1039) with the help from other sources. In the introduction part of this book with the title Das Achte Buch zu den Conica des Apollonios von Perge, the following information is provided in summary: In ancient mathematics, the interest for conics starts with Menaechmus (BC IV. Century) and reaches the summit with Apollonius of Perga. Apollonius wrote his famous work Conica by processing previous information and adding up his own inventions. The first 7 volumes of this work consisting of 8 volumes in total are known whereas the 8th volume is missing. The Islamic and Western mathematicians working in this field took place in the reconstruction of the 8th volume. The most successful one of these works is that of Edmund Halley's (1656-1742) Apollonii Per-gaei conicorum (Oxoniae, 1710). The 8th book of Conica reconstructed by Ibn el-Heysem is the 4th manuscript with the name Makalatu'l-Hasan b.el-Hasan b.el Heysem fi el-kitabu'l-mahrutat in the Mecmu'atu'r-risail, which is recorded under no. 1796 in Manisa Library. The fact that Ibn el-Heysem completed this work nearly 700 years before Halley is interesting.
1952Very Good English Original types document with autograph scripts. 4to. (30 x 21 cm). In English. 1 p. A typed document for the registration to the Congress of Sociology at Istanbul in 1952. Dated 31. IX. 1952. His autograph notes are his name and surname, his address, date, title of communication (his proceeding's title) and signature. His proceeding entitled 'Osmanlica'nin inkisafinda içtimâî faktörler' [i.e. Social factors in the development of Ottoman Turkish]. German Turkologist; educated in Switzerland; member of the Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands (KPD); traveled widely in Turkey together with the Austrian Turkologist and fellow party member Andreas Tietze; settled in Turkey in 1939; after the Second World War director of the German cultural institute, later Goethe Institute (1961-68), in Istanbul and lastly of the Goethe Institute in Amsterdam. Anhegger was born in Vienna in 1911, the son of a German trader. After World War I (much of which he spent in Switzerland), Anhegger moved with his parents to Rotterdam. In 1923 the family moved to Zürich. In Zürich, Anhegger started to read Law, History and Literature at the university, before moving to Vienna in 1932. There he continued his studies, this time reading Economic History, Slavonic studies and Islamic studies. He also started to learn Turkish. It was during his studies in Vienna that he befriended Andreas Tietze. They not only shared scholarly interests, but also a passion for left-wing politics. Anhegger made his first trip to Turkey in 1935. In 1939 he received his Ph.D. degree at the University of Zürich and in 1940 he moved (and as it turned out emigrated) to Istanbul. He had several motives for doing so: quite apart from his scholarly interest in Turkey, his background in the Communist movement and the fact that he shared his life with a Jewish woman, made him feel unsafe so close to Germany. In Istanbul he worked at the German Archeological Institute until he was dismissed in 1942 for refusing to join up when called to serve in the German army. After his dismissal he worked as a teacher of German language and literature in a number of places, notably Istanbul University. As a German with intimate knowledge of Turkey, who was untainted by any Nazi connections, Anhegger from the early fifties onwards became the lynchpin of German cultural activities in Istanbul, culminating in his directorship of the Goethe Institute after 1961. In 1958 Anhegger married the Turkish architect Muallâ Eyüboglu, the sister of the painter Bedri Rahmi. His connections with modern Turkish painters led him to found the first private art gallery in Istanbul in 1957. Robert and Muallâ Anhegger now live partly in Istanbul, partly in Amsterdam.

1904DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. BUONE/OTTIME CONDIZIONI GENERALI, FIORITURE E SEGNI DEL TEMPO. RARISSIMO. IL VOLUME È STATO RAFFORZATO DA UN RILEGATORE E HA UNA NUOVA ANTIPORTA DI RINFORZO. Giovanni Girolamo Saccheri (Sanremo, 5 settembre 1667 – Milano, 25 ottobre 1733) è stato un gesuita, matematico, docente e accademico italiano. È considerato il padre, seppure inconsapevole, delle geometrie non euclidee. Gerolamo Saccheri, un gesuita professore all’università di Pavia, può essere considerato come un precursore di entrambe le geometrie non euclidee successivamente scoperte: la geometria ellittica e quella iperbolica. Saccheri, nella sua opera intitolata “Euclide emendato da ogni neo, ossia tentativo geometrico col quale si stabiliscono gli stessi primi principi di geometria universale”, prende le mosse dalla considerazione di una figura fondamentale, il quadrilatero birettangolo isoscele. Poi prende in esame tre ipotesi relative dei due angoli al vertice che sono entrambi retti, o acuti o ottusi. Saccheri cerca di confutare l’ipotesi dell’angolo acuto, dopo aver confutato quella dell'angolo ottuso. In questa ipotesi per un punto esterno alla retta data passano due rette asintotiche che dividono le rette del fascio in due classi; alla prima appartengono quelle rette del fascio che incontrano la retta data, alla seconda quelle che hanno con essa una perpendicolare comune. Le parallele asintotiche si avvicinano l’una all’altra nella direzione del parallelismo. Il ragionamento di Saccheri, finora assai rigoroso, slitta su un piano intuitivo e di puro convincimento psicologico quando trasferisce all’infinito concetti e considerazioni validi per enti posti a distanza finita, per dimostrare che l’ipotesi dell’angolo acuto è assolutamente falsa "perché ripugna alla natura della retta".
