Amphora in Trnovany, now in the Czech Republic (then Turn-Teplitz, Bohemia, Austria). Already in its early years, the factory won awards for the outstanding technical and decorative quality of its pieces at international exhibitions in Chicago in 1893, San Francisco in 1893 and 1894, and Antwerp in 1894.

Die Lösung dieses Problems im Jahr 1595 machte François Viète zu einem der wichtigsten Mathematiker seiner Zeit, da er die Bedeutung der Trigonometrie für die Lösung algebraischer Gleichungen aufzeigte. In der Folge entwickelte sich eine Freundschaft zwischen Viète und van Roomen. Viète schlug Roomen als Ansatz vor, einen Kreis zu zeichnen, der 3 gegebene Kreise berührt (das Apollonische Problem), und van Roomen löste das Problem mit Hilfe von Hyperbeln und veröffentlichte das Ergebnis 1596. In der Vorrede ("De operis praesentis ordine") spricht der Autor von Viètes neuer Verwendung der Analysis ("Hisce incommondis ante paucos annos Franciscus Vieta ... medelam attulit, novis propositis praxibus ..."). "In seiner Terminologie ahmte van Roomen Viète nach, indem er die Ausdrücke 'prosinus' und 'transinuosa' für Tangente bzw. Sekante verwendete." (Busard). - Im Laufe des sechzehnten Jahrhunderts machten sich mehrere Mathematiker eifrig an die Berechnung trigonometrischer Tabellen. Einige, wie Georg Joachim Rheticus, waren schließlich erfolgreich, andere, wie Adrianus Romanus (1561-1615) und Christoph Grienberger, ließen ihre Arbeit unvollendet. Anfang 1593 wurde Romanus' Ideae Mathematicae pars prima, sive methodus polygonorum veröffentlicht (die vier der insg. zwölf geplanten Kapitel enthielt) und als grundlegender Ausgangspunkt für die Berechnung von Sehnen und Sinus für die gesamte Mathematik und vor allem für die Astronomie zu betrachten ist. - Papierbedingt tls. stärker gebräunt, tls. braunfleckig u. wasserrandig. First edition of this very rare work on spherical trigonometry, which contains the first systematic use of a trigonometric notation, and in which the author speaks of François Viète's recent use of analysis. This copy lacks the 91 pages of Clavius' reprint of the tables, which was published as early as 1607 and partially bound in as the second part. - Van Roomen is best known for posing a problem in 1593, which involved the solution of an equation of degree 45. The solution of this problem in 1595 made François Viète one of the most important mathematicians of his time, as he demonstrated the importance of trigonometry for the solution of algebraic equations. A friendship subsequently developed between Viète and van Roomen. Viète suggested to Roomen as an approach to draw a circle touching 3 given circles (the Apollonian problem), and van Roomen solved the problem using hyperbolas and published the result in 1596. In the preface ("De operis praesentis ordine"), the author speaks of Viète's new use of calculus ("Hisce incommondis ante paucos annos Franciscus Vieta ... medelam attulit, novis propositis praxibus ..."). "In his terminology, van Roomen imitated Viète by using the expressions 'prosinus' and 'transinuosa' for tangent and secant respectively." (Busard). - During the sixteenth century, several mathematicians eagerly set about calculating trigonometric tables. Some, such as Georg Joachim Rheticus, were eventually successful, others, such as Adrianus Romanus (1561-1615) and Christoph Grienberger, left their work unfinished. At the beginning of 1593 Romanus' Ideae Mathematicae pars prima, sive methodus polygonorum was published (which contained four of the twelve planned chapters) and is to be regarded as the fundamental starting point for the calculation of chords and sines for all of mathematics and especially for astronomy. - Somewhat browned due to paper, some brownspots and waterstains.
