 TALL COPY) ; VERY RARE, £2. 2s BasxUae, 1561 



A curious circumstance connected with this work is that nothing is known of its author, wlio is not mentioned by 

 Montuclaur Poggendortr(who mistakenly attributes the work to Regiomoutanus), or in other btbliographies. It foniis 

 unquestionably an illustration and enlargement of Regiomontanus's treatise on trigonometry (y.r. ivfra et ati(f), and is 

 especially interesting for its numerous well-execute<l woodcuts. 



Poggendorff mentions a Johannes Noviomagiis (Jan Bronckhorst), H04-l')70, who for some lime professed mathematics 

 at Rostock ; but there is no evidence to connect him with the above Daniel Santbt^ch Noviomagus.
