Considerationi sopra la forza di alcvne ragioni fisicomattematiche : addotte dal M.R.P. Gio. Battista Riccioli ... nel suo Almagesto nuouo, & Astronomia riformata contro il sistema copernicano
A 1667 Venetian polemic by Stefano degli Angeli, printed by Bortolo Bruni in Venice, that answers Giovanni Battista Riccioli's Almagestum novum and argues against the Copernican system through physical and mathematical reasoning. Its pictures are plain geometric diagrams of semicircles, rectangles, and intersecting diagonals, labelled with capital letters, which a designer could use for schematic line work and lettered construction figures.
