On the Circulation of Algebraic Knowledge in the Iberian Península: The Sources of Pérez de Moya's Tratado de Arithmetica (1573) (2016)

unapi

This paper focuses on the algebraic contents of Juan Pérez de Moya's Tratado de Arithmetica [33]. The author, who was the main disseminator of algebra in 16th century Spain, carefully reviewed his previous algebraic works, and implemented substantial improvements in them. The comparative study we have carried out with some of the best known algebraic works from the Renaissance has allowed us to identify the main algebraic sources of Moya. In particular, this article shows that Moya read carefully Tartaglia's General Trattato [47], Nunes' Libro de Algebra [26], and Stifel's Arithmetica Integra [45], and it throws a new light on the algebraic culture in the Iberian peninsula during the last third of the sixteenth century.
