"In 1688 Ozanam provided an ample explanation of the use of the proportional compass which Galileo Galilei 1564-1642 had illustrated in his work "Operations of the geometric and military compass" dated 1606. This instrument. . . was intended to provide a quick means of calculation for all operations pertaining to the art of war such as ballistics or the measuring or distances and of places. / Ozanam's text . . . is divided into two parts. The first regards the construction and use of the sector that versatile Galilean instrument of 1596. The second consists in a treatise on the division of surfaces." – Cigola p. 229. / "By almost any criterion Ozanam cannot be regarded as a first rate mathematician even of his own time. But he had a flair for writing and during his career wrote a number of books some of which were very popular passing through many editions. . . . In short his contributions consisted of popular treatises and reference works on 'useful and practical mathematics'" –William L. Schaaf DSB X p. 264. PROVENANCE: Stonor family; A. H.

Ozanam 16401718 was a largely self-taught mathematician who became a teacher and a member of the Académie des Sciences. He published a number of well-regarded treatises on mathematics including the much-reprinted Dictionnaire mathématique the first work of its kind in French and the groundbreaking Récréations mathématiques et physiques. The present work on practical geometry is => illustrated with eight tipped-in folding engraved plates while its accompanying "petit traité" features numerous in-text diagrams. Contemporary mottled roan spine gilt extra with raised bands and gilt-stamped leather title-label; acid-pitted and worn especially at joints and extremities. All edges stained red. One plate creased near fold with outer edge slightly proud. Pages and plates clean. Charles-Antoine Jombert hardcover books

Original blind-stamped speckled calf modern maroon leather gilt-stamped spine labels; joints cracked volume 1 corner bumped. 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.
