细节
BOLYAI, Farkas (1775-1856)
A’ Marosvasarhelyt 1829-be nyomtatott Arithemetika Elejének részint röviditett, reszint bovitett, általán jobbitott, 's tisztáltabb kiadása. Marosvasarhely: Kali Simon, 1843.
Rare first edition, an exceptional copy in the original boards, of Bolyai’s work on the foundations of mathematics. It is in part based on the author’s Az arithmethica eleje (published in 1830) and on the second volume (the first volume being on geometry) of his magnum opus the Tentamen juventutem studiosam elementa matheseos purae (1832-33), to which it frequently refers. Bolyai was a close friend of Gauss and was regarded by the latter as the only man who fully understood Gauss’s metaphysics of mathematics. The text of the present work refers frequently to Gauss and Lagrange, along with other mathematicians such as Maclaurin and Taylor. No copies listed on RBH/ABPC.
Octavo (208 x 123mm). 2 folding lithographed plates on blue paper, one with 6 folding slips with partial grey and pink colouring (light spotting, two trivial marginal chips). Original blue-grey boards, paper label to spine (minor loss to spine).
