Overview

In dieser Arbeit wird aufgrund aller uns bekannten Handschriften die Abhandlung 'De arte mensurandi', dargelegt in 12 Kapiteln, erstmals ediert. Die ersten vier und der Anfang des 5. Kapitels ruhren von einem anonymen Verfasser her. Johannes de Muris hat das Werk um 1344 vollendet. Besonders bekannt sind von Johannes seine Vorschlage zur Kalenderreform und seine Musiktheorie, aber er hat auch einige mathematische Werke verfasst. Er war auch einer der wenigen Leute, die im Mittelalter mit den Schriften des Archimedes uber Spiralen, uber Kugel und Zylinder und uber Konoide und Spharoide in der Ubersetzung von Wilhelm von Moerbeke bekannt waren, wie er in 'De arte' zeigt.

Reviews

Busard has provided us with a very well edited text, which is the basic objective of his volume. Scholars who have occasion to resort to the text of John of Murs's De arte mensurandi will find it very nicely presented here, and for that we owe a debt to H.L.L. Busard.
