Sinopsis

Gnomonica Universalis, Sive Praxis Amplissima Geometricè Describendi Horologia Solaria by Johann Peterson Stengel, presents a comprehensive exploration of gnomonics, the art and science of designing sundials. This historic work delves into the geometric principles and practical methods required to accurately construct sundials of various types. StengelâÇÖs treatise offers a detailed examination of the mathematical underpinnings necessary for creating precise solar timekeeping devices. Readers will discover a wealth of information on calculating angles, drawing lines, and understanding the relationship between the sunâÇÖs position and the corresponding time. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of science, horology, or the practical application of geometry.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
