This presentation of it is concerned solely with recovering what can be learned from Pappus about Greek mathematics. The main part of it comprises a new edition of Book 7; a literal translation; and a commentary on textual, historical, and mathematical aspects of the book. It proved to be convenient to divide the commentary into two parts, the notes to the text and translation, and essays about the lost works that Pappus discusses. The first function of an edition of this kind is, not to expose new discoveries, but to present a reliable text and organize the accumulated knowledge about it for the reader‘s convenience. Nevertheless there are novelties here. The text is based on a fresh transcription of Vat. gr. 218, the archetype of all extant | | 出版日期 | Book 1986 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Apollonius; History of Mathematics; Isaac Newton; calculus; function; mathematics | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-4908-5 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4612-9355-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-4908-5Series ISSN 0172-6315 | | issn_series | 0172-6315 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1986 |
