APOLLONIUS Pergaeus (ca. 260-ca. 200 B.C.) Conicorum lib. V. VI. VII . The Arabic paraphrase by Abalphatus Asphahanensus translated into Latin by Abraham Ecchellensis (d. 1664) - ARCHIMEDES (ca. 287-212 B.C.) Liber assumptorum . The Arabic version of Thebit Ben-Kora translated into Latin by Abraham Ecchellensis. Both texts edited by Giovanni Alfonso Borelli (1608-1679). Florence: Giuseppe Cocchini, 1661. 2 o (316 x 214 mm). 226 leaves. Woodcut diagrams. (A few tiny wormholes and occasional light stains.) 18th-century Italian half vellum and boards (some staining to lower cover, light wear to spine ends and corners). FIRST EDITION of books V-VII of Apollonius's work on conic sections. They had been lost until the Medicis acquired an Arabic manuscript in the early 17th century. Book V is particularly important for containing the author's proof for the construction of the evolute curve. Archimedes' text in this Arabic version had shortly before been edited by Johannes Gravius (1659). Brunet I, 347; Norman 58.
