The first complete English translation from the Latin of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz's Nova Methodus Discendae Docendaeque Jurisprudentiae. Better known for his contributions to philosophy metaphysics and mathematics as co-discoverer along with Isaac Newton of calculus Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was also an attorney diplomat state official and judge of the Mainz Court of Appeals. The New Method of Learning and Teaching Jurisprudence is his prescription for a curriculum of study for lawyers and as such is an important indicator of the origins of legal education in the late renaissance year of 1667 when John Milton published Paradise Lost. Already translated into German and French this is the first unabridged translation of the 1667 Frankfurt edition in a modern language a new direct translation of the Latin text with notes by Carmelo Massimo de Iuliis Department of Public and Private Economy Law Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Milano. The translation is enhanced by De Iuliis' introduction which offers a biographical sketch of Leibniz an overview of the reception of his ideas and a discussion of his views on the philosophical concepts of logic and rhetoric as applied to the study of jurisprudence and the systematic reconstruction of legal systems.

Leibniz' 2 papers on the catenary curve paper 1-2 offered here was written at the instigation of Jacques Bernoulli. Following the example of Blaise Pascal who had initiated in 1658 a contest for the construction of the cycloid Leibniz also provoked the geometers of his time by challenging them to submit at the fixed date of mid-1691 their geometric method for the construction of the catenary curve. Leibniz later provided the answer followed by Johann Bernoulli and Huygens.'These two papers are a historical account of the origin of the study of this transcendental curve and at the same time the first physical-geometric construction showing the species-relationship between the catenary and the logarithmic curves as two companion curves; one arithmetic the other geometric. All of the differentials of the catenary curve are arithmetic means of corresponding differentials of the logarithmic curve; and all of the differentials of the logarithmic curve are geometric means of the catenary.'"The Catenary is the form of a hanging fully flexible rope or chain the name comes from "catena" which means 'chain' suspended on two points. The interest in this curve originated with Galileo who thought that is was a parabola. Young Christiaan Huygens proved in 1646 that this cannot be the case. What the actual form was remained an open question till 1691 when Leibniz Johann Bernoulli and the then much older Huygens sent solutions to the problem to the "Acta" Jakob Bernoulli 1690 Johann Bernoulli 1691 Huygens 1691 and Leibniz 1691 - these 4 1691-papers offered here - in which the previous year Jakob Bernoulli had challenged mathematicians to solve it. As published the solutions did not reveal the methods but through later publications of manuscripts these methods have been known. Huygens applied with great paper 4 virtuosity the by then classical methods of 17th century infinitesimal mathematics and he needed all his ingenuity to reach a satisfactory solution. Leibniz the papers 1-2 and Bernoulli paper 3 applying the new Calculus found the solutions in a much direct way. In fact the catenary was a test-case between the old and the new style in the study of curves and only because the champion of the old style was a giant like Huygens the test-case can formally be considered as ending in a draw." Grattan-Guiness in "From the Calculus to Set Theory 1630-1910.".The paper by JACOB BERNOULLI no. 5 offered here is a milestone papers as it marks the invention of the "SYSTEM OF POLAR COORDINATES" with points located by reference to a fixed point and a line through that point. Although newton had earlier also devised such a coordinate system in 1671 his work was not known so that the credit for the discovery generally goes to Bernoulli.

I the other paper he gives a general method of finding the envelope of a family of curves which helped to spread the theory of plane curves.In the groundbreaking paper offered here Jakob Bernoulli introduces THE LEMNISCATE a symmetric self-intersecting curve resembling a figure eight and defined by the condition that the product of the distance of anay point on the curve from two fixed points is d/22 where d is the distance between the fixed points."Jacob Bernoulli was fascinated by curves and the calculus and one curve bears his name - the "lemniscate of Bernoulli" given by the polar equation r2=a cos 2"0". The curve was described in the Acta Eruditorum of 1694 as resembling a figure eight or a knotted ribbon lemniscus. However the curve that most caught his fancy was the logarithmic spiral.he swowed that it had several strioking properties not noted before.it is easy to appreciate the feeling that led Bernoulli to request that the "spira mirabils" be engraved on his tombstone together with the inscription "Eadem mutata resurgo" Though changed I arise again the same."

Leibnitz was interested in the question of religious controversy all of his life and already at a young age he studied Laurentius Valla and Luther. According to Leibnitz one of the resons for religious controversy and dispute lies in the lack of adequate method for discussing and debating such questions. He reflexts thoroughly on the nature of religious controversy. What he means with tolerance of relions is precicely the possibily of discussing religious matters freely on the basis of normative rules that tells us how to conduct the debate. </em> hardcover

Leibniz's papers: pp. 36-38 a. 1 engraved plate; pp. 38-46; pp. 82-89 a. 1 engraved plate; pp. 195-198. <br/><br/><em>First printing of these extremely important papers in which Leibniz claimed that he independently of Newton had discovered the principal propositions of his "Principia" and which present us with Leibniz's fundamental physico-mathematical theory his dynamics his concepts of force space and time. The "Tentamen." constitutes Leibniz's response to Newton's theories about the motion of the celestial bodies. Leibniz can be said to have anticipated the modern mathematical principle of relativity as it is his idea of individual co-ordinate systems and his practical rejection of the Galilean co-ordinate system that Newton adopted. Leibniz opposes Newton's ideas of attractions gravitational forces and calls them "occult qualities". The task of the "Tentamen." was to attain a theory mathematically equivalent to Newton's in accounting for planetary motion and especially for the inverse-square law of Kepler's laws but physically sound and capable of explaining the causes of phenomena.Newton attacked Leibniz's claim of priority in his anonymously published paper "Commercium epistolicum" Phil. Transactions 1714 and states that "in those tracts the principal propositions of that book are composed in a new manner and claimed by Mr. Leibniz as if he had found them himself before the publishing of the said book. But Mr. Leibniz cannot be a witness in his own cause. It lies upon him either to prove that he had found them before mr. Newton or to quit his claim." The features of Leibniz's mathematical representation of motion as put forward in "Tentamen." are see D.B. Meli: Equivalence and Priority. Newton versus Leibniz. pp. 90-91:- Empty space does not exist. The world is filled with a variety of fluids which are responsible for physical actions including gravity.- Living force and its conservation are the fundamental notion and principle respectively in the investigation of nature however they do not figure prominently in the study of planetary motion.- Finite and infinitesimal variables are regularly employed in the study of motion and of other physical phenomena. Living force and velocity are finite; solicitation and conatus are infinitesimal.- Accelerated motion whether rectilinear or curvilinear is represented as a series of infinitesimal uniform rectilinear motions interrupted by impulses. I call this 'polygonal representation'. Usually the polygon is chosen in such a way that each side is traversed in an equal element of time dt. In polygonal representations accelerations are reduced to a macroscopic phenomenon.- Propositions are often used to safeguard dimensional homogeneity. Constant factors - such as numerical factors mass and the element of time - are usually ignored in the calculations.Denys Papin's papers:1.

It is the only larger philosophical work published by Leibnitz himself.The "Théodicée" was a response to skeptical Pierre Bayle who wrote in his work Dictionnaire Historique et Critique that after rejecting three attempts to solve it he saw no rational solution to the problem of evil.The work was composed at the instigation of Sophia Charlotte with whom Leibniz had conversed concerning the views of Bayle. In response to a request from Prince Eugene for an abstract of the Théodicée Leibniz in 1714 wrote the "Principes de la nature et de la grâce fondées en raison and the Monadologie".It is often the case that this Latin edition is followed by the small work "Causa Dei Asserta per Justitiam Ejus." 32 pp. This work is not withbound here.Ravier "Bibliographie des Oeuvres de Leibniz" No 344. - PMM 1710-edition. </em> hardcover
