Robert of Chester’s (?) Redaction of Euclid’s Elements, the so-called Adelard II Version

Part of the book series: Science Networks · Historical Studies ((SNHS,volume 8))

  • 83 Accesses

Abstract

To reconstruct the original Latin text as well as possible, we took the wording of the best manuscripts, C and P, as the base for our text, comparing it with all other manuscripts. Angle brackets < > in the text indicate editorial additions. To make the text easier to read, we have occasionally inserted round brackets ( ) as part of the normal punctuation. References to Euclid consist either of the book number in Roman numerals and the proposition number in Arabic numerals divided by a period or of the book number in Roman numerals and the line number in Arabic numerals divided by a comma. So I.46 means book I, proposition 46, and I,46 book I, line 46.
