Nürnberg: Jeremias Dümler, 1636. hardcover. Gut. 6 Blatt, 574 Seiten, 1 [weißes] Blatt. Einband aus einem mittelalterlichen Notenblatt auf Pergament. Oktav, 19,5 x 16 cm (Vorderdeckel mit größerem Tintenfleck, leicht bestoßen, anfangs auch innen mit Tintenspuren im weißen Rand, papierbedingt lagenweise unterschiedlich gebräunt, nur wenig braunfleckig, im Ganzen: recht gut erhalten). Mit einem Besitzvermerk von alter Hand auf dem Titel, Stempel und Signatur auf vorderem Spiegel, Vorsätze vorne und hinten mit mathematischen Notizen von alter Hand in Bleistift, Seite 197/198 mit Einriss, Seiten 495 bis 508 mit dezenter Wurmspur im weißen Rand. Daniel Schwenter war Orientalist und Mathematiker, geb. am 31. Jan. 1585 in Nürnberg, seit 1626 Rektor der Universität Altdorf, gest. am 19. Januar 1636 in Altdorf. Schwenter studierte orientalische Sprachen und Mathematik an der Universität Altdorf, wo er Schüler des Mathematikers und Astronomen Johann Richter (Johannes Praetorius) war. "Seine zahlreichen Schriften gehören zum geringeren Theile der orientalischen Philologie, zum größeren Theile der Mathematik an; einiges fällt nun gar in ganz andere Gebiete. (...)" Die Erquickstunden "bilden eine Fundgrube geschichtlicher Notizen, welche einer systematischen Ausbeutung noch immer harrt. Den Mathematiker interessirt vornehmlich, daß hier die erste Anwendung von Kettenbrüchen in einem deutschen Werke vorkommt. Der Physiker wird einer Senkwage zur Bestimmung des specifischen Gewichtes von Flüssigkeiten, sowie einer Art von magnetischem Telegraphen seine Aufmerksamkeit zuwenden." (Moritz Cantor, 1829-1920, in der ADB). - VD17 12:639193F (es gibt noch zwei weitere Druckvarianten); cf. Galland: Cryptology p.164 f. - Weitere Bilder auf Anfrage oder auf unserer Homepage.
