Hi Darek, A search of the British and Bodleian Libraries does not show any of these so I suspect that because they were presentations at an International Conferences, the individual contributions might not have been regarded as true ‘publications’ recorded under the names of the various presenters. This was and still is, quite a common practice at Scientific Meetings.
A list of many of the “PUBLICATIONS - Académie Internationale d'Histoire des Sciences” can be found as a PDF at: http://www.aihs-iahs.org/en/system/files/2011-10-publications-iahs-en.pdf I am unsure if the entries quite match your references though. The document mentions (See Entry 6.) the VI-e Congres as being in Amsterdam in 1950 (Not Florence in 1956, as your reference suggests). However entry 15. does seem to confirm that the X-e Congres was held at Ithaca (USA) in 1962. A little further down it suggests that copies may be available from the publishers and gives several names for these. I hope you might be able to take things a little further with this information. Regards Patrick From: Darek Oczki Sent: Monday, March 18, 2013 9:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Works of Tadeusz Przypkowski wanted Dear Friends I am looking for two articles by Tadeusz Przypkowski: 1. The gnomonics of Nicolas Copernicus and of G J Rheticus, Actes du VI-e Congrès International d'Histoire des Sciences, Pages 400-409. Florence 1956. 2. Gnomonics of John Hevelius, Actes de Xe Congres International d’Histoire des Sciences, II, pp 695-697, Ithaca, 1962. Does anyone have them? This Polish gnomonist Tadeusz Przypkowski wrote the articles in English or French (I am not sure) but ironicly not in Polish so they are not available in my country. Well, to some high level scientist they may but not to ordinary people like myself. These articles are quoted everywhere but nobody can read them. Please help me reach them - all I want is to translate Przypkowski's warks into Polish and pass the knowledge to the other sundial enthusiasts. -- Best regards Darek Oczki 52N 21E Warsaw, Poland GNOMONIKA.pl Sundials in Poland http://gnomonika.pl --------------------------------------------------- https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/sundial
