With a woodcut device on title and 38 woodcut diagrams and plans of fortifications (one large folding plan on D5). 2o: (.?.)2 A-D4 E1 F-H4 I2; pag.: [4], 61, [1 blank]. The polymath Simon Stevin (1548-1620) was a figure of great importance in the history of science, law and economy of the northern Netherlands. Stevin was a bookkeeper in Antwerp, then a clerk in the tax office at Brugge. After this he moved to Leiden where he first attended the Latin school, then he entered the University of Leiden in 1583 (at the age of 35). He was at various times mathematics and science tutor to Maurice of Nassau, founder of a school of engineers at Leiden and a prolific writer, mostly in Dutch, on everything from interest tables to mechanics and hydrostatics. While quartermaster in the Dutch army, Stevin invented a way of flooding the lowlands in the path of an invading army by opening selected sluices in dikes. He was an outstanding engineer who built windmills, locks and ports. He advised the Prince Maurice of Nassau on building fortifications for the war against Spain. His two works on fortification contained ideas which were not put into practice until a hundred years later by Vauban and Coehoorn.B0126. |
