Overview

Opera Mathematica (972-1003) presents the collected mathematical works of Pope Sylvester II (Gerbert of Aurillac), a prominent scholar and mathematician of the 10th century. This edition includes not only Gerbert's writings but also supplementary materials from other authors, essential for understanding and evaluating Gerbert's contributions. These additional works are organized into seven appendices, providing a comprehensive context for Gerbertâ€(TM)s mathematical treatises. Published in Latin, this volume offers invaluable insights into the state of mathematical knowledge during the early medieval period. It sheds light on Gerbert's role in reintroducing classical mathematical concepts to Europe and his influence on the development of mathematics in the centuries that followed. A significant resource for historians of mathematics and medieval scholars, 'Opera Mathematica' remains a vital testament to the intellectual pursuits of the era.
