About This Item
Gottingen: Bandenhoef und Ruprecht, 1800. Hardcover. Very Good+. Contemporary half morocco and marbled paper, gilt-stamped lettering in two spine labels, gilt-stamped ornament at spine tips; 12mo (100 x 170 mm); pp. [32], 624, plus 12 folded plates tipped onto stubs at rear. Boards and spine a bit scuffed; spine lettering a little faded. Except for a library stamp on title-p., text block is clean and unmarked. An excellent copy of what's become a rather uncommon text book. Kaestner (1719-1800) was a noted academic, mathematician, and epigrammist, and a great influence on a number of his students at the Universities of Leipzig and Gottingen (including Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, Johann Christian Polycarp Erxleben, Carl Friedrich Gauss, Johann Tobias Mayer, Heinrich Wilhelm Brandes, Farkas Bolyai, and Georg Klügel).
