This is a circa eighteenth-century copybook with problems and illustrations in algebra and geometry. There are sections on extraction of the cube root, geometrical definitions of lines and angles, and first rudiments and preparatory problems in plane geometry.
This volume contains two selections: the first are problems in geometry and trigonometry, and the second concerning fortifications and their layout. Note on fly-leaf says this volume was found in the Bastile.
This collection includes correspondence to and from Boskovic; a travel journal in Europe; and a large number of manuscripts on astronomy, hydrography, hydro-mechanics, mathematics, geometry, mechanics, and optics; and a volume of poetry.
