171744194Leipzig Grosse & Gleditsch 1717. 4to. In: "Acta Eruditorum Anno MDCCXVII". 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. 317-322; Pp. 322-336; Pp. 353-360; Pp. 360-362. Entire volume: 4 553 39 pp. seven engraved plates. 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

Gothofredi. Guillelmi. Leibnitii. Relatio ad inclytam Societatem Leopoldinam Naturae Curiosorum de novo antidysenterico Americano magnis successibus comprobato

169632Hannov. et Gurlpherpit Hannover WolfenbÃ¼tte: Gothofredi Freytagii Gottfried Freytag 1696. First edition. Papered spine. Printerâ€™s device on last page. In fine condition. First edition. Papered spine. Printerâ€™s device on last page. 8Âº; a1â€“b8 c1â€“3 .; 37 1 p. Scarce pharmacological work on the ipecacuanha root that can be used as an emetic nauseant expectorant and diaphoretic. â€œRelatio ad inclytam Societatem Leopoldinam Naturae Curiosorum de novo antidysenterico Americano magnis successibus comprobatoâ€ Relation to the Illustrious Leopoldine Society of Naturalists Concerning the New American Anti-Dysentery Drug Attested with Great Success is Leibnizâ€™s most comprehensive and influential contribution to the history of medicine and pharmacy. Leibniz wrote the treatise after he read the study on ipecacuanha root written by Willem Piso and Georg Marggraf published in Historia naturalis Brasilia 1648 and evidently after conducted experiences with the root himself. The root was made famous after it was used successfully to treat the King of France Louis XIVâ€™s dysentery in 1672 by the Dutch physician John Frederick Helvetius 1625â€“1719. The work has been published in the same year as an appendix to Martin Listerâ€™s â€œSex exercitationes medicales de quibusdam morbis chronicisâ€ Frankfurt and Leipzig 1696 and also to â€œMiscellanea curiosa sive Ephemeridum medico-physicarum Germanicarumâ€ Nuremberg 1696. Listerâ€™s work was printed by Freytag too the difference is merely the lack of the colophon on the â€œLister-editionâ€. Ref.: Smith J. E. H.: Divine Machines. Leibniz and the Sciences of Life.

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

Very nice and highly unusual red velvet binding with elaborate gilt decorated embossed decorations and letterings. = Rare memorial contribution to the famous German polymath principally mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz 1646-1716 in a fantastic binding. 'Leibniz sometimes spelled Leibnitz was a prominent German polymath and one of the most important logicians mathematicians and natural philosophers of the Enlightenment. As a representative of the seventeenth-century tradition of rationalism Leibniz's most prominent accomplishment was conceiving the ideas of differential and integral calculus independently of Isaac Newton's contemporaneous developments. Mathematical works have consistently favored Leibniz's notation as the conventional expression of calculus. It was only in the 20th century that Leibniz's law of continuity and transcendental law of homogeneity found mathematical implementation by means of non-standard analysis. He became one of the most prolific inventors in the field of mechanical calculators. While working on adding automatic multiplication and division to Pascal's calculator he was the first to describe a pinwheel calculator in 1685 and invented the Leibniz wheel used in the arithmometer the first mass-produced mechanical calculator. He also refined the binary number system which is the foundation of all digital computers. In philosophy Leibniz is most noted for his optimism i.e. his conclusion that our universe is in a restricted sense the best possible one that God could have created an idea that was often lampooned by others such as Voltaire. Leibniz along with René Descartes and Baruch Spinoza was one of the three great 17th-century advocates of rationalism. The work of Leibniz anticipated modern logic and analytic philosophy but his philosophy also assimilates elements of the scholastic tradition notably that conclusions are produced by applying reason to first principles or prior definitions rather than to empirical evidence. Leibniz made major contributions to physics and technology and anticipated notions that surfaced much later in philosophy probability theory biology medicine geology psychology linguistics and computer science. He wrote works on philosophy politics law ethics theology history and philology. Leibniz also contributed to the field of library science. While serving as overseer of the Wolfenbüttel library in Germany he devised a cataloging system that would serve as a guide for many of Europe's largest libraries. Leibniz's contributions to this vast array of subjects were scattered in various learned journals in tens of thousands of letters and in unpublished manuscripts. He wrote in several languages but primarily in Latin French and German.' Wikipedia. Editor of this memorial album was the German historian Carl or Karl Ludwig Grotefend 1807-1874 who also participated in the publication of Leibnizens Gesammelte Werke Leibniz's collected works. Inner hinge a bit tender; some light shelf-wear to one corner and some of the velvet but overall in great condition. unknown
