Alfonso's Rectifying the Curved: ​A Fourteenth-Century Hebrew Geometrical-Philosophical Treatise

Ruth Glasner, Avinoam Baraness, "Alfonso's Rectifying the Curved: ​A Fourteenth-Century Hebrew Geometrical-Philosophical Treatise"
English | 2021 | ISBN: 331977302X | 296 pages | EPUB | 30 MB

This volume offers a new English translation, introduction, and detailed commentary on Sefer Meyasher 'Aqov, (The Rectifying of the Curved), a 14th-century Hebrew treatise on the foundation of geometry. The book is a mixture of two genres: philosophical discussion and formal, Euclidean-type geometrical writing. A central issue is the use of motion and superposition in geometry, which is analyzed in depth through dialog with earlier Arab mathematicians.
