EUCLIDES.

De ses eerste boeken der beginselen van Euclides op een korte en klare manier gedemonstreert door Henrick Coets, lector in de Mathesis te Leyden. Met eene voorreden, en eenige aanmerkingen verrykt door Wilhelmus La Bordus. Den derden druck, veel verandert en verbeetert.

Leiden (Te Leyden), By Samuel Luchtmans, Ordinaris Stads Drukker, 1740. 8vo. (X),435,(1 blank) p. Half calf 17.5 cm (Ref: Geerebaert 36,9,b; OiN 174) (Details: Back with 4 raised bands. Red morocco shield in the second compartment. Title in red & black. Numerous woodcut geometric illustrations in the text) (Condition: Cover worn. Back rubbed. Small tear in the head of the spine. Two old ownership entries on the title) (Note: Euclides was a Greek mathematician who lived in the 3rd cent. B.C. He wrote the most famous book in the history of mathematics, the 'Elements'. His work was intended for teaching, and follows a deductive approach. 'Euclid's fame is unquestionably attached to the success of the Elements. The number and relative antiquity of manuscript copies, the number of translations, abridged versions, and other adaptations, the variety of comments that have sprung from his text which has enjoyed a large number of editions, prove the immense significance it has had in the history and teaching of mathematics'. (The Classical Tradition, Cambr. Mass. 2010, p. 345/6) § Henrick Coets, the translator of this text, was appointed professor of Mathematics (Lector der Wiskunde in het Nederduitsch) of the University at Leiden in 1701. He was to teach mathematics in Dutch. He died in 1730. He wrote also two books on sundials. (Van der Aa, 3,601) This is the 3rd revised edition produced by a successor Wilhelmus La Bordus, who was promoted to the same chair in 1734. He died in 1757. (Van der Aa, 2-1, 912)) (Provenance: Near the upper edge of the title 'B.E. Paravicini di Capelli'. The Dutchman Bartholomeus Eduard Paravicini di Capelli was born in Breda in 1724. His family was of Swiss origin. He may have used this book during his studies and later. Since 1788 he was the Chief of the artillery of the Dutch army. In 1794/95 he fought in the Allied Forces against the French army in the North of France. He died in 1810. The second name on the title is also of a gunner, and reads: 'W. Frowein, Sergeant'. He too may have read and used this book to his advantage. In the 'Nederlandsche Staatscourant' no. 240, of 25 nov. 1842, we found that one 'W. Frowein', sergeant major, was promoted by King William of the Netherlands to First Lieutenant of the second Batallion of the Artillery of Gelderland) (Collation: *6 (minus blank leaf *6); A-2D8, 2E2 (leaf 2E2 verso blank)) (Photographs on request)
