Le « Grand Commentaire » aux Tables Faciles de Théon d'Alexandrie et le Vat. Gr. 190

Abstract: Le Vat. gr. 1 90 (IXe siècle) est un manuscrit très important pour l'histoire de l'astronomie grecque : ancêtre unique de toute la tradition manuscrite conservée du Grand Commentaire de Théon d'Alexandrie aux Tables Faciles de Ptolémée, il contient des scolies d'Apamée (Syrie), écrites en 462 de notre ère, et marque ainsi un précieux jalon dans la transmission de l'astronomie grecque vers l'Orient.

The tradition of Archimedes' works as a whole does in fact implausibly low.…”
