Item Details

Description

[MANUSCRIPT – PHYSICAL SCIENCE & ASTRONOMY]. “Phisica.” France, ca 1770-1790.

2 parts in one volume, 217 leaves, 8vo (188 x 130 mm). In Latin. Written in cursive in brown ink. With full-page ink drawing of an armillary sphere, and numerous in-text illustrations. (Trimmed just affecting the top line on a few leaves, a few stains.) 18th-century French mottled calf, spine gilt, edges stained red. Provenance: Jean Baptiste Le Noble (inscription on first leaf); Hus. Metayer (inscription on final leaf).

Presumably a manuscript copy of an unidentified work in two parts. The first part deals with physics, and includes illustrations likely relating to Archimedes. The second part pertains to astronomy, and includes one full page and several larger-format illustrations. Throughout the text, arguments are presented as questions with corollaries and conclusions.
