‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- BON EXEMPLAIRE ---- "Poncelet's geometric work marks the first major step toward the elaboration of the fundamental theories of modern geometry. His geometric oeuvre includes two important books : the famous Traité des propriétés projectives des figures and APPLICATIONS D'ANALYSE ET DE GEOMETRIE (2 vols. Paris 1862/1864). The first volume contains, with some notes and additions, the text of the 7 notebooks in analytic and pure geometry dating from his imprisonment at Saratov. The last notebook is the first, incomplete sketch of his future treatise on projective properties. The second volume contains the text of various geometric works dating from the period 1815-1817, an unpublished memoir from 1818-1819 on the principle of continuity, the Essai sur les propriétés projectives des figures presented to the Académie des sciences on 1 May 1820, the text of the articles published in Annales between 1817 and 1832 and few letters and polemical writings".
