1702168455Hanover: 25 April 1702. A meeting of minds in the Age of Enlightenment The opening letter of Leibniz's correspondence with William Wotton marking the beginning of the long-standing relationship between the two great polymaths. The letter draws attention towards a relatively understudied side of Leibniz his engagement with historiography and presents his reflections on the role of history as a "mirror for princes". Wotton 1666-1727 was an English theologian who wrote chiefly on history and theology. Among his major works are Reflections upon Ancient and Modern Learning 1694 and The History of Rome from the Death of Antoninus Pius to the Death of Severus Alexander 1701 - the latter later used by Gibbon. These caught Leibniz's attention prompting him to open correspondence. Leibniz thanks Wotton for gifting him a copy of his Roman history praising the work as "accurately elaborate" and presented in "an elegant book". He then compliments the breadth of Wotton's knowledge admitting that: "I almost couldn't believe that the author of the History was the same as he who produced that famous work comparing the learning of the ancients and moderns Reflections. For such different forms of erudition are unlikely to coexist in the same person. I can't thank you without also expressing my admiration". Leibniz had read the Reflections a contribution to the ongoing controversy concerning the merits of ancient and modern learning and sided with the moderns as did Wotton. Leibniz first heard of Wotton's works a few years before from his friend Thomas Burnett who acted as a source of English intellectual news for him and had previously introduced him to Locke. In the first part of the letter Leibniz also mentions Wotton's "extraordinary envoy" who delivered the book; this was James Cresset English ambassador for several north-German states and a friend of Leibniz. Leibniz reveals that soon after receiving the book he immediately brought it to court and showed it to Georg Ludwig Elector of Hanover and the future King George I of England. The prince who Leibniz notes was "fond of English literature" was already reading a copy with pleasure; Leibniz regrets that the recently deceased William III could not do the same. This occasion prompts the philosopher to reflect on the educational role of history as a mirror for princes: "It is an old saying that History is the school of princes but hardly another history could be a better teacher than yours in which the Caesars. are depicted almost as if to be admired on a canvas". The letter also exemplifies Leibniz's fluid and creative Latin style: "with this taste you have wonderfully stimulated my appetite which you can satisfy if anyone can". Wotton replied in July and their correspondence continued until Leibniz's death the two typically exchanging cultural news. Leibniz's fascination with history began very early and was concentrated on Germany. Work on the critical edition of his historical contributions started in 2019 and is ongoing. Around the time of this letter he was publishing collections of Medieval documents: Mantissa Codicis Juris Gentium Diplomatici 1700 and Accessiones historicae 1700. These were part of a wider project to collect materials for the publication of a history of Germany which was never realized. The letter is a witness to Leibniz's curiosity towards the works of English historians at a time when he was actively reflecting on these topics; it also testifies to the popularity of Wotton whose achievements are often overlooked by modern scholarship.

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. </em> hardcover

Roger Martin, appelé aussi Abbé Martin jusqu'à la Révolution, naquit en 1742 à Estadens dans la Haute-Garonne ; brillant élève de sciences, il fut nommé professeur de philosophie à 20 ans au Collège Royal de Toulouse. Passionné de physique et de mathématique, il parvint à faire instaurer dans ce même Collège un cabinet de physique expérimentale ; les leçons qu'il y professait eurent un grand succès. Dans les deux présents mémoires, lus à sept ans d'intervalle devant l'Académie de Toulouse, l'auteur pose le problèmes de l'infini mathématique à l'aune de la méthode du calcul différentiel initié par Newton et développé par Leibniz, tout en appréhendant ses méthodes nouvelles et modernes par le biais de "la méthode des Anciens, connue sous le nom de méthode d'exhaustion ou des limites".

1747170287Amsterdam: Chez François Changuion 1747. The foundation text of theodicy Second edition of Jaucourt's critical edition the first to credit him as the author in a handsome 19th-century binding. Jaucourt's edition includes the Theodicy's four appendices his biography of Leibniz and a chronological catalogue of his works. The Theodicy was originally published in 1710. Jaucourt's edition first appeared in 1734. The Theodicy the only major philosophical treatise that Leibniz published during his lifetime vindicates the justice and goodness of God despite the existence of evil. Notably it includes the first statement of his famed argument that this world despite its manifest problems is nonetheless the best of all possible worlds. "Although the immediate reaction to the book was somewhat muted the Theodicy soon became commonly associated with Leibniz's name in European culture. Today Leibniz's name remains closely associated with the project that he developed most fully in the Theodicy. The neologism that Leibniz coined in the title from the Greek theos dike literally: "the justice of God" has entered the lexicon as a term describing any attempt to reconcile the goodness of God with the presence of evil in the world a project to which Leibniz had devoted a good portion of his life" Jorgensen & Newlands pp. 1-2.

1705153285Paris: Jean Boudot 1705. The foundation of binary arithmetic First edition of this momentous volume of the journal of l'Académie Royale des Sciences containing Leibniz's invention of binary arithmetic the foundation of the electronic computer industry. Binary notation reduces all numbers to expressions involving only 0 and 1. It was a topic that had interested Leibniz for over two decades. "This explanation of binary arithmetic was the first publication on this topic to result in a significant impact on the scientific community" Glaser History of Binary and other Nondecimal Numeration p. 39. Although other mathematicians had experimented with binary previous to Leibniz including Pascal Leibniz's paper was the first to have a notable influence on scientific thought. After its publication the binary system became a popular subject of study. As modern computing is based on the binary system the paper can be seen as the basis of computational science both theoretical and in practice. Leibniz had conceived of a calculating machine based on the binary system as early as 1679 but this was never constructed. Binary arithmetic had broader implications for Leibniz beyond just its mathematical function. "In the domain of mathematics Leibniz regarded binary notation as intrinsically superior to decimal notation. Over and above this advantage however he believed that it contained the key to resolving both the problem of conceptual primitives and the problem of adequate characters. If it could be established as Leibniz speculated from about 1679 onwards that the only truly primitive concepts were those of God and Nothingness or Being and Privation then the symbols 1 and 0 would form the basis for an adequate characteristic whose simplest signs would stand in an immediate relation to the two conceptual primitives" The Cambridge Companion to Leibniz pp. 236-7. This was the second of Leibniz's great trilogy of works on mathematics and computation following Nova methodus pro maximis et minimis 1684 his independent invention of calculus and preceding Brevis descriptio machinae arithmeticae 1710 his decimal mechanical calculating machine. Also included in the volume is Bernard Le Boyer de Fontenelle's Nouvelle Arithmétique binaire pp. 58-63 written as secretary of the academy which offers an editorial comment on Leibniz's paper. 2 parts in 1 vol. quarto 245 x 173 mm.
