Hi all
now I got the full title for this article (in French ! ). I hope this
is correct now.
Tadeusz Przypkowsk: *La gnomonique de Nicolas Copernic et de Georges
Joachim Rheticus*, Actes du *VIII-e* Congrès International d'Histoire
des Sciences, Pages 400-409. Florence *1958*
The print dates from 1958 but the meeting was in 1956. I hope this is
correct
Best

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

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.
