De Docta Ignorantia et Scripta Mathematica — Coincidence of Opposites & Exact Geometry¶
Synchronized 4-Track Book Codex (English · Latin 1440 / 1514–1913 · Summary · Critical Notes)
De Docta Ignorantia et Scripta Mathematica presents in a critical Digital Scriptorium edition the complete geometric, epistemological, and cosmological core of Nicholas of Cusa's De Docta Ignorantia (completed at Kues on February 12, 1440) alongside his four landmark mathematical treatises: De Geometricis Transmutationibus (1445), De Mathematicis Complementis (1453), De Mathematica Perfectione (1458), and the complete Aurea Propositio in Mathematicis (August 8, 1459).
Every unit is presented across four synchronized tracks—English (a freshly authored, 100% original GEOMETOR translation rendered directly from the Latin), Latin (1440 / 1514–1913) (collated from Paolo Rotta's 1913 edition with Raymond Klibansky's archival restorations and the 1514 Paris / 1565 Basel Opera), Summary, and Critical Notes (pairing nine interactive .euclid-graphic SVG constructions with reception across Plato, Aristotle, Euclid, Archimedes, Proclus, Aquinas, Regiomontanus, Kepler, Snellius & Huygens, Klein, and Wildberger).
