réf. 115619England late 18th century. . 100-leaf manuscript rectos and most versos filled wax seal remnants to front pastedown leaves wavy at the edges some spotting and marks to contents; contemporary calf-backed blue paper boards gilt floral tools to spine compartments binding marked and worn with spine cords partially exposed and loss of the blue paper morocco label lacking naphthalene smell good condition housed in a black cloth folding case. An unusual late 18th century manuscript on classical physics that cites Isaac Newton Blaise Pascal William Harvey Henry Power and others. The text approximately 200 pages presents an ordered and detailed account of a number of related topics: optics; hydrostatics and pneumatics; mechanics including simple machines such as the lever and screw the behaviour of descending bodies and pendulums; phosphorus and its chemical transformations; and fortifications and architecture. The notes are dense but generally neat and legible with carefully prepared diagrams so this seems to be a fair copy rather than a working notebook. Newton is cited in the section on light and colour: 'What Sir I.N. has said by way of in the last edit of his Opticks will appear to be an established truth from most if not all the following examples some of which he mentions himself". And Harvey in a short section on chemical transformations: "Harvey had says he the opportunity as well as the curiosity upon several occasions to examine the weight of when some of them taken up in places very distant from one another.'. The origin of much of the material is unclear though the long section on hydrostaticks was taken from Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures by Roger Cotes 1682-1716 originally published privately in 1738 and with a second edition at Cambridge in 1747. Cotes was 'probably the most talented British mathematician of the generation after Newton'. He was nominated as the first Plumian professor of astronomy at Cambridge in 1706 and 'his appointment was favoured by his influential mentor Richard Bentley master of Trinity; by Newton's successor as Lucasian professor William Whiston who claimed to be in mathematics "a child to Mr Cotes" Whiston 133; and by Newton himself. In 1709 Cotes became heavily involved in the work for which he is best remembered namely the revisions for the second edition of Newton's Philosophia naturalis principia mathematica the first being out of print' Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Cotes died young and Newton was reported to have said that 'if he had lived we might have known something'. A number of Cotes's lectures and mathematical analyses were published posthumously by his executor Robert Smith the Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures being one of them. It is tempting to question whether other portions of the present manuscript are also based on Cotes's work and further academic scrutiny might be fruitful. England, late 18th century. hardcover

Tiny wormholes at the lower edge of the pages on the first 7 leaves not affecting the legibility. Occasional foxing ink ghosting. Water stains on the last 2 leaves.

Text in Spanish. 24 handwritten pages in ink in three different hands. ff 12. 18th-Century Spanish manuscript about the Spanish involvement in the French Geodesic Mission of 1735 and the Ellipsoid Model of the Earth. The manuscript is an interesting collection of contemporary reports proving the importance of the Spanish role performed by Jorge Juan y Santacilia and Antonio de Ulloa in the so-called French Geodesic Mission 1735 with a particular focus on the polemic over the shape of the Earth. The quotations are conjugated with connecting texts by an anonymous author. One of the important scientific disputes of the late 17th early 18th century was the debate on the shape of the Earth. The assumption of the spherical shape was dominating until the late 17th century when Sir Isaac Newton determined that the Earth was oblate a spheroid stretched over the Equator however at the same time Giovanni Domenico Cassini and his son Jacques supposed that the Earth was prolate stretched along the poles. Eventually in 1735 two expeditions were sent by Louis XV and the French Academy to the Arctic Circle Lapland and to the Equator Ecuador and Peru to gain certainty by measuring the meridian arcs at polar and equatorial latitudes. The equatorial mission was accompanied by two Spanish geographers Jorge Juan y Santacilia and Antonio de Ulloa thus it became the first major international scientific expedition. The findings of the missions confirmed Newton’s hypothesis that the Earth was oblate a rotational ellipsoid. The first part of the manuscript is a lengthy citation of an early Spanish report on the equatorial mission published in the Mercurio histórico y político February 1745; pp. 99–107 which is followed by further references and quotations related to the geographer’s their work and the figure of the Earth such as Benito Jerónimo Feijóo y Montenegro’s Theatro critico universal 1751 Bernardo’s de Ulloa’s Antonio’s father Restablecimento de las fabricas y comercio español 1749 and articles from the Journal de Trévoux or the Gaceta de Zaragoza. The second part is Diego de Torres Villarroel’s 1693–1770 study Prevenciones in: Libros en que estan reatados. Vol. IV.; 1752 in which de Torres the almanac writer and professor of mathematics of a dubious repute opposes the findings of the missions and Newton’s hypothesis of the oblate Earth. Antonio de Ulloa 1716–1795 was a Spanish scientist and explorer the first Spanish governor of Louisiana who is also credited as the discoverer of the element platinum. De Ulloa was a Fellow of the Royal Society and a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. His associate Spanish scientist in the Geodesic Mission to Peru was Jorge Juan y Santacilia 1713–1773 who during the mission also measured the heights of the mountains of the Andes. Jorge Juan was the founder of the Real Observatorio de Madrid Royal Observatory of Madrid and he became a Fellow of the Royal Society too. Their co-written memoirs were published in Spanish from 1748 on and their books were very soon translated into French English and German.
