ISBN: 9780691140148 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Writings by early mathematicians feature language and notations that are quite different from what we're familiar with today. Sourcebooks on the history of mathematics provide some guidance, but what has been lacking is a guide tailored to the needs of readers approaching these writings for the first time. How to Read Historical Mathematics fills this gap by introducing readers to the analytical questions historians ask when deciphering historical texts. Sampling actual writings from the history of mathematics, Benjamin Wardhaugh reveals the questions that will unlock...

Thomas Salmon: Writings on Music: Two Volume Set
ISBN: 9781409465034 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Thomas Salmon (1647-1706) is remembered today for the fury with which Matthew Locke greeted his first foray into musical writing, the Essay to the Advancement of Musick (1672), and the near-farcical level to which the subsequent pamphlet dispute quickly descended. Salmon proposed a radical reform of musical notation, involving a new set of clefs which he claimed, and Locke denied, would make learning and performing music much easier (these writings are the subject of Volume I). The incident has tended to be passed over rather briefly in the scholarly literature, but beneath the unedifying...

ISBN: 9780754665267 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

It constitutes a general history of quantitative music theory in the late seventeenth century as well as a detailed study of one part of that history: namely the applications of mathematical and mechanical methods of understanding to music that were produced in...

He is of particular historical...
