Ayil Meshulash [Mathematics - especially, the properties of triangles and the rules of astronomy and algebra]. Edited by Samuel ben Joseph of Luknick.
FIRST EDITION. Title within woodcut vine-border. Numerous mathematical textual diagrams. ff. (7), 31. Stained and wormed. Loose in contemporary boards, worn, spine taped. 4to. Vinograd, Vilna 278; Vinograd, Gr’a 862.
Menachem Mann-Simcha Zimel, Vilna and Horodna: 1833.
In this work the Gaon of Vilna drew upon his extensive knowledge of mathematics and the natural sciences. He viewed such knowledge as an aid to Torah study and disapproved of the lack of interest in secular sciences that was widespread among Talmudic scholars of the time. The title is a play on the words in Genesis 15:9, “A ram of three years” (in Hebrew, “meshulash” is also the word for triangle).
