First printing of the famous Libnitz-issue of Acta Eruditorum published a year after the death of Leibnitz including the renowned obituary by the German philosopher Christian Wolff. In 1706 Leibniz recommended Wolff for the Professorship at Halle the post Wolff held for seventeen years until his dismissal and in 1711 Leibniz sponsored Wolff's membership to the Berlin Academy. It is also mentioned that during the year of Leibniz's death in 1716 Leibniz visited Wolff in Halle when returning to Hanover from Vienna. To honor Leibnitz memory Wolff undertook the project of writing ELOGIUM GODOFREDI GUILIEMI LEIBNITII a treatise of the life of Leibnitz. As early as 1679 George I acting as Leibnitz patron directed him to write the history of the house of Brunswick. Immediately after he began arranging material he had collected. The work was however only the preparatory steps when Leibnitz died in 1716 and the work was never published. The present paper NOTITIA DE HISTORIA BRUNSUICENSI is the only part of the work which could have become a opus magnum with historiography that has ever been published. The volume also contains:Goldbach Christian. Temperamentum Musicum Universale. Pp. 114-15.And many other papers by influential contemporary mathematicians philosophers and historians. hardcover

Observatio quod rationes sive proportiones non habeant locum circa quantitates nihilo minores et de vero sensu methodi infinitesimalis. - LEIBNIZ ON INFINITESIMALS

171244073Leipzig Grosse & Gleditsch 1712. 4to. In: "Acta Eruditorum Anno MDCCXII". The entire volume offered in contemporary full vellum. Hand written title on spine. A yellow label pasted on to top of spine. A small stamp to title-page and free front end-paper. Library label to pasted down front free end-paper. As usual with various browning to leaves and plates. Pp. 167-69. Entire volume: 2 555 35 pp. five engraved plates. First printing of one of Leibniz's latest publications in which he proposed an interpretation of infinitesimals by a comparison of bodies of different extensions. The paper is a response to to a problem raised by French philosopher and mathematician Antoine Arnauld who wrote an important philosophical work known as "The Logic of Port-Royal" from 1662 and "Geometry" 1667. In the book he includes an example of symbolic rules that he considers to be against our basic intuitions on magnitudes and proportions. His reasoning goes as follows "Suppose we have two numbers a larger and a smaller one. The proportion of the larger to the smaller one should evidently be larger than the proportion of the smaller to the larger one. But if we use 1 as the larger number and - 1 as the smaller one this would lead to 1/-1 > -1/1 which is against the rules of algebra". Heeffer The Methodological Relevance of the History of Mathematics for Mathematics Education 1992.Leibniz saw this as a genuine mathematical problem but argued that the division should be performed as a symbolic calculation. "Following Leibniz the infinite appeared in two forms as the i Contiuous infinite and ii the discrete infinite. The status of the differentials is closely related to the status of the infinite. . As a consequence there is no clear and consistence distinction between continua of different kind related to i geometry and to ii mechanics. . Leinbiz did neither consequently argue mathematically or arithmetically nor consequently geometrically phenomenologically and mechanically. But The correlation between mathematics and physics is as impressive as possible. Suisky Euler as physicist 2009 p. 89-90.The volume also contains:Bernoulli Johann. Angulorum arcuumque sectio indefinita per formulam universalem expressa. Pp. 274-277; 329-30.And many other papers by influential contemporary mathematicians philosophers and historians. hardcover

Oeuvres philosophiques latines & francoises de feu. Tirées de ses manuscrits qui se conservent dans la bibliotheque royale a Hanovre et publiées par Mr. Rud. Eric Raspe. Avec une Préface de Mr. Kaestner. Nouveau essais sur l'entendement humain -New . - FIRST PRINTING OF "NEW ESSAYS ON HUMAN UNDERSTANDING"

176538096Amsterdam et Leipzig Chez Jean Schreuder 1765. 4to. Uncut in the original marbled boards. Professionally rebacked preserving almost all of the original back. The fragile orginal binding is here preserved in its entirety and it has quite a bit of overall wear. Apart from a small hole to two leaves in the index affecting ab. one work on each of the four pages it is internally nice and clean. Title-page printed in red and black. Beautiful eng. title-vignette and a few other woodcut vignettes and initials. 4 XVI 2 540 18 pp. First edition thus being the first collected edition of Leibnitz' philosophical works in French and Latin and containing the FIRST PRINTING of one of Leibnitz' most important philosophical works his "Nouveaux essays sur l'entendement humain" New Essays on Human Understanding in which he attacks and refutes Locke and his "Essay on Human Understanding" and gives important testimony to his own philosophical ideas. With its 496 pages this extensive work takes up most of this collection of philosophical works and it also constitutes one of his largest and most important of his philosophical works. As explained by Raspe the editor in his preface to this publication "LES NOUVEAUX ESSAIS SUR L'ENTENDEMENT HUMAIN qui sont la partie principale de recueil sont connûs trés imparfaitement par l'histoire de la Philosophie de Leibnitz que Mr. Ludovici a publiée" p. X and the reason why the work was known even though it had not been published is because of a letter that Leibnitz had written in 1714 in which he explains why he did not wish to publish the work. Raspe quotes the letter p. X from which it becomes clear that Leibnitz had not wished to publish an attack on Locke and his work because Locke had died in 1704 the same year that Leibnitz had actually written the work and because Leibnitz was against publishing refutations of dead authors: "Mais je me suis degouté de publier des refutations des Auteurs morts quoiqu'elles dissent paroitre Durant leur vie & étre communiqués à eux memes". Raspe points to the nobleness of this decision but he also points to what could be other reasons for Leibnitz not wishing to publish his seminal work one of them being that towards the end of his life he died in 1716 he did not wish to enter into any more controversies with the British since he was already engaged in two very important ones that occuopied much of his time and energy: The first concerned the invention of the differential calculus the second was against Mr. Clarke on liberty and important metaphysical and theological questions. Another reason could also be that he did not want to begin controversies with the friends of Locke who at that time were many and important.Locke's "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding" which is the work here being refuted by Leibnitz became the crucial groundwork for the future empiricists with David Hume in the foreground and thus Leibnitz' work though published posthumously probably came to play a bigger role in the history of philosophy than it would have done had it been published just after he wrote it. Few philosophers of his time were susceptible to Leibnitz' ideas and his application of logic to the problems of metaphysics as most of them were far more receptive to Locke's empiricism. However when Leibnitz' "Nouveaux essays." was finally published here in his "Oeuvres philosophiques" in 1765 it became hugely influential and was also an important factor in the development of Kant's transcendental philosophy.The hugely famous work by Locke in which he stated his famous theory that the mind of the newborn is like a blank slate tabula rasa and concluded that all ideas come from experience and that there are no such things as innate principles was generally sharply criticized by the rationalists the most important of them being Leibnitz. Leibnitz' response his "Les nouveaux essays sur l'entendement humain" constitutes the most important of the rationalist responses and it is written in the form of a chapter-by-chapter refutation. He refutes the major premise of Locke's work that the senses are the source of all understanding primarily by adding to this "except the understanding itself" thus going on to distinguish between his three levels of understanding which are part of the centre of his philosophy.For Leibnitz as well as for Locke the great inspiration was Descartes but they chose two fundamentally different directions Locke the materialistic one and Leibnitz the idealistic one. The present work represents the greatest clash between the two giants of late 17th century philosophy. The effect of Leibnitz' work was enormous and among the Germans he invoked a great passion for philosophical studies. Leibnitz represents a striking contrast to both Locke with his empiricism and Spinoza. One earlier collection of some of Leibnitz' works had been printed before this one but it did not contain his "New Essays on Human Understanding" and only consisted of his "Smaller Philosophical Works". This is the German 1740-edition "Kleinere philosohische Schriften". The other writings contained in this publication are "Examen du sentiment du P. Malebranche que nous voyons tout en Dieu" ""Dialogus de connexione inter res & verba" "Difficultates quaedam Logicae" "Discours touchant la methode de la certitude & de l'art d'inventer" "Historia et commendatio charactericae universalis quae simul sit ars inveniendi".Graesse IV:152. hardcover

LEIBNITZ, GOTTFRIED WILHELM [THE LEIBNIZ CALCULATOR]Biblio.com

Theodicaea Oder Versuch und Abhandlung Wie der Güte und Gerechtigkeit Gottes In Ansehung Der Menschlichen Freyheit und des Ursprungs des Bösen zu vertheidigen; Aus dem Frantzösischen übersetzt Bei diesen dritten Auflage an vielen Orten verbesser.

173528333Hannover Zu finden bey Nicolai Försters und Sohns sel. Erben 1735. 8vo. Contemporary full vellum w. author and title in old hand on back. Bdg. a bit soiled. Internally a bit of brownspotting. title-page w. professionally repaired tear. Inner front-hinge starting to crack but bdg. and bookblock tight. Overall a good and fairly well preserved copy. With engr. portrait woodcut vignettes and one folded engr. plate depicting an early calculating machine. 28 64 1030 pp. Rare third German edition. Last Richter-edition. First published in French in 1710. It is the only larger philosophical work Leibnitz himself published and it is a work of immense importance to philosophy theology and mathematics. In this work Leibniz represents his excellent calculating machine which has served as the basis for what we now call a computer as he presents the binary arithmetic "Rechnen mit Null und Eins" "calculating with zero and one" in the Beylage p. 926 which forms the basis for the much later developed computer science see PMM 177. This work contains "Anmerkungen" by Richter and "Lebens=Beschreibung" by Fontenelle followed by "Beylage". In these "Beylage" we find the method of converting numbers into the binary system which here is said to be "etwas recht neues welches der Herr Leibnitz zu Hanover erfunden" "something brand new which Mr. Leibnitz von Hanover has discovered" as well as "Eine Schrift. In welcher klar gezeiget wird/ dass nicht Herr Neutonsondern der Herr von Leibnitz Erfinder des CALCULI DIFFERENTIALIS sey." A Treatise. In which it is clearly shown/ that Mr. Leibniz and not Mr. Newton is the inventor of the CALCULI DIFFERENTIALIS".All early editions of the Theodicee are rare. See D.S.B.: VIII pp. 161-166. hardcover
