Peurbach (Peuerbach), Georg.
Institutiones in Arithmetrica: cum aliis tum in primis adulesce(n)tibus necessariae.

Wien, Vietor, 1511. - (20,5 x 14,5 cm). 10 nn. Bll. Moderner Halblederband im Schuber.

Seltene Wiener Ausgabe seines erstmals 1492 erschienenen und mehrfach aufgelegten Lehrbuchs der Arithmetik. - "The arithmetic of Peurbach went by various names, as 'Opus Algorithmi,' 'Institutiones in arithmeticam,' 'Elementa arithmetices,' and 'Introductorium in arithmeticam.' It is a brief treatise on the fundamental operations with integers and fractions, and contains a few simple applications. Peurbach was too profound a mathematician to have considered it a work of any importance, but it is probable that he wrote it for the benefit of students who were not yet prepared to take up his work in astronomy" (Smith). - Stellenweise mit sauberen Annotationen von alter Hand. Titelblatt gering fleckig. Vorderes Gelenk gering aufgeplatzt. Insgesamt wohlerhalten. - DSB 15, 473; VD16 P 2044; Smith, Rara 53
