Bound in 17th century Italian vellum with label on spine. € 14.500,00 Adams U7; Riccardi II,178; DSB IX,487ff; Biblioteca Mechanica 228f. - First edition of the author's first work, which is generally regarded as the most important treatise on mechanics since Archimedes and a critical influence on Galileo. It is notable for its commitment to establishing mechanics on a rigorously mathematical basis and for its powerful argument that mechanics and statics are separate sciences. The work has technological implications for navigation, manufacture and the plastic arts, and it remained pre-eminent until the appearance of Galileo's "Two New Sciences" in 1638. "It marks the high point of the Archimedean revival of the Renaissance" (Rose, Italian Renaissance of Mathematics, p.222). Guidobaldo del Monte studied mathematics at Padua and Urbino, where he studied with Commandino. This is a complete and very well preserved copy of this scarce book. Old ownership stamp and entry at the beginning, one erased stamp on title-page, manuscript correction on f 40, some smaller wormwholes in the broad white margins, and one repaired tear on f.112. Otherwise a remarkable clean and fresh copy.
