Rappel du titre complet : P. Gaspari Schotti regiscuriani e Societate Jesu, Olim in Panormitano Siciliae, nunc in Herbipolitano Franconiae Gymnasio ejusdem Societatis Jesu Matheseos Professoris, Technica Curiosa, sive Mirabilia Artis, Libris XII comprehensa ; Quibus varia Experimenta, variaque Technasmata Pneumatica, Hydraulica, Hydrotechnica, Mechanica, Graphica, Cyclometrica, Chronometrica, Automatica, Cabalistica, aliaque Artis arcana ac miracula, rara, curiosa, ingeniosa, magnamque partem nova & antehac inaudita, eruditi Orbis utilitati, delectationi, disceptationique proponuntur Exemplaire bien complet des 60 magnifiques planches hors texte. Elève d'Athanase Kircher à l'université de Würzburg puis son collaborateur à Rome, le jésuite Gaspard Schott (1608-1666) manifesta très tôt son intérêt pour les sciences et la machinerie. De retour à l'université de Wurzburg, il fit connaître les savoirs accumulés par Kircher, et sa renommée s'étendit. Il vulgarise les découvertes de Guericke, Torricelli et Boyle sur le vide, et correspond notamment avec Huygens. Ses oeuvres majeures, dont fait partie sa "Technica curiosa" "sont d'énormes collections non critiques, des mines d'informations désuètes dans lesquelles des pépites significatives doivent être extraites d'une grande quantité de scories. Comme beaucoup de ses contemporains, Schott croyait que les principes de la nature et de l'art se révèlent mieux dans leurs exceptions. Cela fait de lui une source utile sur l'histoire des instruments scientifiques et de la technologie mécanique" (DSB, XII, 211) "La plupart des ouvrages du P. Schott sont curieux, et ils étaient jadis fort recherchés ; on y trouve des observations précieuses, des expériences dignes d'attention, qui on mis les physiciens sur la voie de plus d'une découverte" ( Backer, I, 727). Le présent ouvrage "est un recueil complet des expériences de physique faites jusqu'à cette époque. Dans les deux premiers livres, le P. Schott rend compte des expériences faites à Magdebourg par Otton dde Guericke, et en Angleterre , par Rob. Boyle sur l'air et sur le vide. Il traite, dans les deux suivants, de diverses expériences avec le mercure ; le cinquième et le sixième livre contiennent la description d'un grand nombre de machines remarquables ; le septième est remplie de détails sur la polygraphie universelle du P. Kircher, ouvrage dans lequel ce docte jésuite propose une écriture commune à tous les peuples de la terre ; sur les écritures occultes et merveilleuses ; sur la sténographie ; sur l'origine des chiffres tant romains que ceux que nous nommes arabes ; sur l'origine de différentes sortes d'écriture, etc. Le huitième roule sur le problème de la quadrature du cercle, et les différentes solutions qui en ont été proposées ; le neuvième traite des inventions en usage chez les différents peuples pour mesure le temps ; le dixième, de différents essais tentés pour découvrir le mouvement perpétuel ; le onzième contient la description des machines de physique que l'auteur avait en vue depuis la publication de ses précédents ouvrages ; enfin la douzième forme un Traité de la cabale des Juifs" (Backer, I, 730-731). Backer signale également qu'à "la suite du sixième livre, Schott a réimprimé l'ouvrage du P. Kircher intitulé "Specula Melitensis encyclica, hoc est, Syntagma novam instrumentorum physico-mathematicorum". Bon état de cette rare édition originale bien complète des 60 planches hors texte (mq. de cuir en dos et plats en queue, bon exemplaire par ailleurs). A student of Athanase Kircher at the University of Würzburg and then his collaborator in Rome, the Jesuit Gaspard Schott (1608-1666) showed his interest in science and machinery very early on. Back at the University of Wurzburg, he made known the knowledge accumulated by Kircher, and his fame spread. He popularized the discoveries of Guericke, Torricelli and Boyle on the void, and corresponded in particular with Huygens. His major works, including his "Technica curiosa", "are huge, uncritical collections, mines of quaint information in which significant nuggets must be extracted from a great deal of dross. Like many of his time, Schott believed that the principles of nature and art are best revealed in their exceptions. This make him a useful source on the history of scientific instruments and mechanical technology" (DSB, XII, 211). According to Backer, "most of Father Schott's works are curious, and they were once much sought after; we find there valuable observations, experiments worthy of attention, which have put physicists on the path to more than one discovery" (Backer , I, 727). The present work "is a complete collection of physics experiments carried out up to that time. In the first two books, Father Schott gives an account of the experiments carried out in Magdeburg by Otto dde Guericke, and in England, by Rob. Boyle on air and on vacuum. He treats, in the next two, of various experiments with mercury; the fifth and sixth books contain the description of a large number of remarkable machines; the seventh is filled with details on universal polygraphy by Father Kircher, work in which this learned Jesuit proposes a writing common to all the peoples of the earth; on occult and marvelous writings; on stenography; on the origin of both Roman numerals and those we call Arabic ; on the origin of different kinds of writing, etc.; the tenth, of di.

IV, 1058. Honeyman 2817. Sotheran, Suppl. II, 2412: "The instrument was for surveying purpose, and consists in the main of a wooden frame and a ruler". - "In seinem Magnes (1643) beschreibt Athanasius Kircher ein Vermessungsinstrument, das er als ein "Instrumentum pantometrum (Alles-Messer), ichnographicum (kartographisch) , magneticum (magnetisch)" bezeichnet. Damit will er ausdrücken, dass man mit ihm alle kartographischen Aufgaben unter Ausnutzung des Magnetismus lösen kann. Er gibt eine Bauanleitung an und bringt Beispiele für die Verwendung des Instruments bei Vermessungsarbeiten. Dabei verweist er auch auf seine Erfahrungen, die er 1624 im Auftrag des Kurfürsten von Mainz bei seinen eigenen Vermessungsarbeiten an der Bergstraße gesammelt hatte. Das Pantometrum ist ein sogenannter Messtisch, mit dem man Entfernungen im Gelände bestimmen kann. Die gesuchten Strecken lassen sich jeweils als Seiten eines Dreiecks betrachten. Von den Endpunkten einer Standlinie im Gelände aus wird ein Messpunkt anvisiert. Zugleich werden mit dem Instrument auf dem Papier die Visierlinien gezeichnet, so dass ein Dreieck entsteht, das zu dem Dreieck im Gelände ähnlich ist. Mit seiner Hilfe kann man dann die gesuchte Streckenlänge bestimmen. Kaspar Schott gab dem Instrument zu Ehren seines Erfinders den Namen "Pantometrum Kircherianum" und verfasste 1660 in Würzburg ein ausführliches Handbuch gleichen Titels zu seinem Gebrauch."
