175018749Paris 1750. 8vo. Jacques Rollin Contemporary mottled calf spine gilt in compartments with two red morocco labels lettered in gold blue marbled edges. With 136 engraved plates 9 folding 127 full-page numerous woodcut diagrams and printed tables in the text. 4 volumes. 16 460 20; 4 462 14; 2 482 12; 8 446 5 pp. Enlarged edition of a famous compendium of popular science complete with all 136 engraved plates. The work discusses a wide variety of subjects as it presents both serious scientific problems and experiments as well as descriptions of conjuring tricks fireworks and games. The problems and their solutions are arranged according to subject: arithmetical geometrical gnomonical optical mechanical pyrotechnical and physical. The optical problems were based on the author's own teachings of perspective and include working with mirrors anamorphosis and a camera obscura. All problems and experiments described are clearly and fully depicted on the numerous engraved plates.For his Recreations Jacques Ozanam 1640-1717 used everything known at the time in the field of popular science and made use of the works of Claude Gaspard Bachet de Mérizac Claude Mydorge Jean Leurechon and Daniel Schwenter. The added treatise on clocks which can be found in the third volume was based upon Domenico Martinelli's Horlogi elementari 1669 with popular observations by Ozanam added. However Ozanam not only recreated other scientist's experiments but also presented his own including a first idea of a movie made by quickly projecting magic lantern slides of the same figure in slightly different poses creating the illusion of a person walking. His work became very popular and was used at schools and at home to teach youth all aspects of mathematical sciences. The first edition was published in 1694; this is the final edition in the original form as the work was almost entirely rewritten by Jean-Étienne Montucla 1725-1799 shortly after. The present edition was significantly enlarged compared to the first edition with extra information and 52 additional plates.Ozanam came from a Jewish family that had converted to Catholicism. He taught mathematics in Lyon before going to Paris where his teaching brought him a substantial income. Ozanam cannot be regarded as a first-rate mathematician but he had a flair for writing and during his career he wrote a number of books some of which were very popular passing through many editions. His contributions consisted of popular treatises and reference works on 'useful and practical mathematics' and this extremely popular work on mathematical recreations which had by far the more lasting impact. Ozanam's Récréations may be regarded as the forerunner of modern books on mathematical recreations.With a paper shelfmark label mounted on the front pastedown of each volume "j3459/ 223". The edges and corners of the boards of all volumes are somewhat scuffed. Internally clean with only minor foxing on some of the leaves plates 19-21 in volume 1 are bound in the wrong order. Otherwise in very good condition.l Caillet 8242 mentions only 132 plates; Sotheran 12888; Poggendorff II col. 342; cf. DSB IX p. 263-265. hardcover

Ownership gilt-stamps at foot of spine: "FFF" with a floating leg and spur above. Very good. First English edition. Ozanam was a self-taught French mathematician better known for his writing than for any major discoveries though he did effect significant improvements on existing logarithmic tables. Nearly the entire first volume is devoted to Euclid's Elements. The work also contains: trigonometry calculating tables geometry geodesy fortification mechanics simple & compound engines statics hydrostatics perspective geography and dialing. The English edition of the Cursus Mathematicus also contains contributions from the English mathematician J. T. Desaguliers: "In 1712 Desaguliers was also working on Ozanam's Cursus mathematicus. This was a complete course in mathematics in five-volumes originally in French and which was 'done into English . . . by several hands' for John Nicholson and again printed by L. Lichfield and sold by John Morphew. Volumes 4 and 5 which treated respectively 'Mechanicks and Perspective' and 'Geography and Dialling' were specifically said to be translated and 'amended in several places by J. T. Desaguliers.' . . . During his last years in Oxford Desaguliers was clearly busy not only translating many hundreds of pages of Ozanam's works but also amending and even correcting the French mathematician's works. In the eighteenth century a translator had perhaps more freedom than would be condone today to put his individual mark on the translated text." – Audrey T. Carpenter John Theophilus Desaguliers pp. 114-115. Volumes: I. Contains a short Treatise of Algebra and the Elements of Euclid; II. Arithmetic and Trigonometry with correct Tables of Logarithms Sines and Tangents; III. Geometry and Fortification; IV. Mechanics and Perspective; V. Geography and Dialling.

Nouvelle édition des célèbres Récréations. Ce grand classique, toujours très recherché, du mathématicien Ozanam (1640-1717), a paru à l'origine en 1692. Il contient le Traité des horloges, qui est une traduction de l'ouvrage de Domenico Martinelli : Horologii elementari publié à Venise en 1669. "Cet ouvrage curieux, beaucoup plus ample que ceux qui avaient déjà paru sous le même titre, contient la solution d'une foule de problèmes d'arithmétique, de géométrie, d'optique, de gnomonique, de mécanique, de pyrotechnique, etc." (Quérard). "Il contient la solution d'une quantité de problèmes mathématiques, tours de gobelets, de cartes et d'escamotage, tous décrits avec les perfectionnements désirables pour l'époque" (Ruegg).

Ozanam’s Récréations may be regarded as the forerunner of modern books on mathematical recreations. He drew heavily on the works of Bachet de Méziriac Mydorge Leurechon and Daniel Schwenter; his own contributions were somewhat less significant for he was not a particularly creative mathematician. The work was later augmented and revised by Montucla and still later was translated into English by Hutton 1803."DSB. </em> hardcover
