Mathesis Juvenilis - J C Sturm - Collation/Info required
So, a recent eBay purchase, for no rational reasons (dont you find these are
often the most satisfying, was this: Johann Christopher Sturm - Mathesis Juvenilis - 1711 - Nuremberg - Hoffmann http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tem=6940729347 The listing was badly done - this latin book with roman type was described was 'German black letter'. Meant to be in two volumes, I beleive mine to be the first, but its a weighty tome, and would like to see a colation of the full set - here is a description of mine. Half title, Title page, 5 leaves of 'Generosa prosapiae pariter ac indolis adolescenti carolo nutzelio' 1 leaf of 'Praemonitum ad Lectorum' 14 leaves of 'Benevololectori Salutem & Obfequia' 884 numbered pages. So, can anyone help? I cant find a copy in the BL, nor any of this specific edition on Worldcat - am I being dense? Googling provides one example of the same edition, described in two volumes, but goes no further in its description. Cheers, Tom L-M |

I've sent you the details offline. Are you starting a mathematics collection? If so, highly commendable. William M. Klimon http://www.catholicbookcollector.com |
