Overall a very good copy of this important book on astronomy. "Peuerbach's best-known work, the Theoricae novae planetarum (1454; "New Theories of the Planets"), began as lectures to the Viennese "Citizens' School" (Bürgerschule), which Regiomontanus copied in his notebook. An influential university textbook, the Theoricae novae planetarum eventually replaced the widely used, anonymous 13th-century Theorica planetarum communis (the common "Theory of the Planets"). By the late 17th century, this textbook had appeared in more than 50 Latin and vernacular editions and commentaries, while introducing such students as Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543), Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), and Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) to an updated and simplified version of Ptolemy's Almagest that gave a physical interpretation to its mathematical models."

(20,5 x 14,5 cm). 10 nn. Bll. Moderner Halblederband im Schuber. Seltene Wiener Ausgabe seines erstmals 1492 erschienenen und mehrfach aufgelegten Lehrbuchs der Arithmetik. - "The arithmetic of Peurbach went by various names, as 'Opus Algorithmi,' 'Institutiones in arithmeticam,' 'Elementa arithmetices,' and 'Introductorium in arithmeticam.' It is a brief treatise on the fundamental operations with integers and fractions, and contains a few simple applications. Peurbach was too profound a mathematician to have considered it a work of any importance, but it is probable that he wrote it for the benefit of students who were not yet prepared to take up his work in astronomy" (Smith). - Stellenweise mit sauberen Annotationen von alter Hand. Titelblatt gering fleckig. Vorderes Gelenk gering aufgeplatzt. Insgesamt wohlerhalten. - DSB 15, 473; VD16 P 2044; Smith, Rara 53.

Provenance: Sotheby's Sale Nov. 2, 1981, lot 130. An exceptional, clean and bright copy, collated complete. ---- Houzeau-Lancaster 2252; Mortimer/Harvard French, 432; DSB XV, Suppl. 1, p.475-6. - FIRST PARIS PRINTING as an independent work, with a commentary by Francesco Capuano and Silvestro Mazzolini da Priero. Of exceptional rarity, only two copies have appeared at auction in the past 40 years (our copy and an incomplete copy lacking the title-page). The work contains the earliest known woodcut by Oronce Finé, an illustration of the armillary sphere with his monogram and crowned dolphin in the lower border. "Theoricae novae Planetarum is an elementary but thorough textbook of planetary theory written by Peurbach to replace the old, and exceedingly careless, so-called Theorica planetarum Gerardi, a standard text written probably in the second half of the thirteenth century. The original version of the Theoricae novae, completed in 1454 . contained sections on the sun, moon, superior planets, Venus, Mercury, characteristic phenomena and eclipses, theory of latitude, and the motion of the eighth sphere according to the Alphonsine Tables. Peurbach later enlarged the work . by adding a section on Thabit ibn Qurra's theory of trepidation. Regiomontanus brought out the first printed edition (Nuremberg, ca, 1474). Zinner reports no fewer than fifty-six editions through the middle of the seventeenth century . The diagrams are of considerable importance. Since parts of Peurbach's text would be unintelligible without them . The Theoricae novae contains very careful and detailed descriptions of solid sphere representations of Ptolemaic planetary models that Peurbach based either upon Ibn al-Haytham's description of identical models in his On the Configuration of the world (translated into Latin in the late thirteenth century) or upon some later intermediary work. Peurbach's book was of great importance because his models remained the canonical physical description of the structure of the heavens until Tycho disproved the existence of solid spheres. Even Copernicus was to a large extent still under their influence, and the original motivation for his planetary theory was apparently to correct a number of physical impossibilities in Peurbach's models relating to nonuniform rotation of solid spheres."

Zum Herausgeber Erasmus Reinhold (Saalfeld 1511 - 1553, Prof. der Mathematik in Wittenberg seit 1536) vgl. Poggendorf II, 598, der ihn einen "der ersten Anhänger des Copernikanischen Systems" nennt, der in vorliegendem Titel auch schon "der unvollkommenen Camera obscure erwähnt". Peuerbach selbst (1423 - 1461), u. a. nach Studien in Rom bei Kardinal de Cusa und Ferrara bei Blanchini, war Lehrer des Regiomontanus und wurde mit dem im Sammelband ebenso vertretenen Sacrobosco kanonisch für den mathematischen und astronomischen Unterricht der beginnenden Neuzeit (vgl. Poggendorf II, 422). Dieser (John of Holywood, John of Holybush), ca. 1195 (Nithsdale, Schottland) - 1256 (Paris), war Lehrer der Astronomie und Mathematik an der Universität Paris; seine Sphaera sind das wahrscheinlich einflußreichste astronomische Werk des ausgehenden Mittelalters und der frühen Neuzeit, ein "Standardwerk des Quadriviviums" (Bibl. Palatina, E 4.5); er betrieb eine intensive Rezeption der arabischen Astronomie und führte die arabischen Zahlen in die europäische Wissenschaft ein.

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. FIRST EDITION thus. Folio. ff. xlv [i]. [a-g6, h4. (h4 blank)] Lettre bâtard. Title in large Gothic letter with calligraphic initial. Forty-seven woodcuts by the author including a number of diagrams of motions of the planets similar to those designed by Finé for the Peurbach of 1515. A large cut of an armillary sphere on leaf g6v is signed with Finé s monogram, another version of the concentric O and F used by the artist on the full page cut in the Puerbach. The last page of text and colophon are arranged in decorative forms. Mortimer. Fine historiated white on black criblé initials, finely calligraphed purchase note signed Longe bought from the bookseller François Pomard (bookseller and publisher at Chambéry), on 5 October 1582 on front fly, early monogram ML on title (possibly Longe s), Gerard in a later hand below. Light age yellowing, t-p fractionally dusty, the odd thumb mark or mostly marginal stain, a few lower outer corners creased. A very good, crisp copy with good margins in early vellum over thin boards, covered with a fine C13th manuscript bifolium leaf, in double column, decorated initials in red and blue with penwork flourishes and trails, beautiful and unusual grotesques of birds and monsters in lower margins, rebacked a little soiled and rubbed, all edges yellow. First edition of the first treatise on Astronomy in French, beautifully illustrated by the author. Although the book appeared anonymously, Oronce Finé's device ('virescit vulnere virtus') appears on two leaves (a1v and h1r). Moreover, the woodcut with the armillary sphere on g6 is signed with his monogram OF . Oronce Finé was regarded as one of the greatest scholars in France. François I took him to Piedmont and consulted him about the fortifications of Milan and the siege of Pavia. He occupied the first chair of natural science at the royal college, founded only one year earlier, from 1531 until his death. He also promoted modern cartography and participated in the construction of the astronomical clock of the library of Sainte-Geneviève, where it can still be viewed today. The text is an adaptation of the treatise of Georg Peurbach (Theoricae novae planetarum), to whom we owe, together with his pupil Regiomontanus, the renaissance of the study of astronomy. The illustration-cycle comprises 47 woodcuts, all designed by Finé himself, presenting diagrams as well as astronomical figures and planetary constellations. Fine was as well versed in the arts as in the sciences "His work as a designer is closely related to his major fields of mathematics, astronomy and geography, and his contribution to book production is particularly interesting in extending beyond the illustration to the ornamentation of scientific texts" (Mortimer 225). The work is beautifully printed and typeset by Dubois working with Jean Pierre de Tour. Dubois .also worked with Jean Pierre de Tour, with whom he produced two books: Orance Fine s La Théorique des cielz, mouvemens et termes practiques des sept planètes' and Jean Parmentier s translation of Sallust s Catline Conspiracy. There is little information available on Jean Pierre de Tours other than after working on these two books with Dubois he began working with Gérard Morrhy Michael Wintroub The Voyage of Thought: Navigating Knowledge across the Sixteenth-Century World . Dubois was forced to flee Paris for his religious views shortly after the publication of this work. The typography is remarkable. The lettres bâtardes font used for the text affords a finer balance between the type area and the solid black portions of the diagrams than would be possible with a Roman or Italic letter. Mortimer.

Ca. 15 x 20 cm. Kräftiger Abzug. Peuerbach wurde 1120 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt. Ende des 12. Jahrhunderts war die Burg bereits im Besitz der Schaunberger. 1669 ging Peuerbach an den Hofkammerpräsidenten Georg Ludwig Graf Sinzendorf. Wegen der von ihm begangenen Verbrechen wurden seine zahlreichen Besitzungen von der Hofkammer konfisziert. Peuerbach wurde 1684 vom Hofkanzler Dietrich Althet Heinrich Freiherr von Strattmann erworben. Im Schlosshof steht ein Denkmal für den bedeutenden Astronomen und Mathematiker Georg Aunpeckh von Peuerbach (1423 1461). Der auf dem Vischer Stich ersichtliche, ca. 40 m hohe Schlossturm wurde auf Grund von Bauschäden bereits 1777 abgetragen. Graphik, Österreich - OBERÖSTERREICH.
