Los 173 | SCALETTA, Carlo Cesare
SCALETTA, Carlo Cesare (attivo ca. 1700) - Scuola mecanico-speculativo-pratica. In cui si esamina la proporzione, che ha la potenza alla resistenza del corpo grave. Bologna: Costantino Pisarri, 1711.

First edition of Scaletta's work that deals with the resistance of solid bodies and how this affects the functioning of machines or mechanisms, both in civil and military use. Riccardi (I.ii 427) considers it precious "for the multiplicity of knowledge of practical mechanics reported therein".

Folio (300 x 205mm). Half-title, engraved frontispiece, woodcut vignette on title, initials and headpieces, 13 engraved plates (title reinforced at outer margin, Q4 with some repairs and stains that touch the text, a few other minimal restorations). Contemporary calf, spine decorated in gold, red edges, marbled endpapers (spine ends chipped, extremities lighlty rubbed, some damp spots). Provenance: monogram on half-title.
