About this Item

Hafni� (Copenhagen), Melchior Martzan, 1634. Lille 8vo. Lidt senere hldrbd. Let rygforgyldning. Rester af titeletiket. Ryg lidt slidt. (4),54,(2) pp., 1 kobberstukket planche. De f�rste blade l�se. Mangler blad A8 (Pp. 11-12). Originaludgaven af en af de allerf�rste l�reb�ger udgivet i Danmark vedr�rende l�ren om de hele tal og regnearterne i matematikken. Bogen var tilt�nkt som l�rebog i element�r aritmetik for de studerende p� Christian den IV's Akademi i Sor� og ind�velsen skete ved hj�lp af en r�kke opgaver som stilles i bogen. Lauremberg (1590-1658) var b�de mathematiker, filolog og digter. Han blev af Chr. IV indkaldt til professoratet i matematik ved det adelige Akademi i Sor�, hvor han forlod sin stilling i Rostock som det Filosofiske Fakultets dekan. I Sor� virkede han som professor i matematik og ingeni�rvidenskab fra 1623 til sin d�d i 1658. Han var en ikke ubetydelig matematiker og foregangsmand, s�rlig kendt er han for sin indf�relse af logaritmerne i Danmark. Det er os� velkendt, at Chr. IV havde udset Lauremberg til at udf�re det f�rste danske kartografiske v�rk ved opm�ling af landet. Hans virksomhed som korttegner var allerede begyndt i Mecklenburg og det ses, at han i en del �r var optaget af denne virksomhed i Danmark. Kortv�rket blev imidlertid aldrig til noget til kongens store fortrydelse. Herefter overtog Johannes Meyer kortl�gningen. Lauremberg er yderligere kendt som en af tidens mest fremragende latinske poeter, s�ledes indeholder hans "Satyra" fra 1636 spirene til de senere plattyske "Skj�mtedigte".The very scarce first edition of one of the first elementary textbooks in arithmetics published in Denmark. The work should be used teaching mathematcs at the University in Sor� founded by the king Chr. IV in 1623.Bibl. Danica II,18. - Niels Nielsen. Matematikken i Danmark 1528-1800, p. 127 No. 3.
