“…A central role was also attributed to astronomy within Fine's mathematical teaching program, since the Cosmographia, sive mundi sphaera (of which four out of five books deal with spherical astronomy) stands, among the different treatises that compose the Protomathesis, simultaneously as the culminating point of the quadrivium, 28 tional model drawn from the model of the quadrivium (as represented, for example, by the mathematical section of the Margarita philosophica of Gregor Reisch, which Fine worked to edit around 1523) and which aims to promote practical mathematics. 21 On Fine's practical mathematics, see (Métin 2004;Guyot and Métin 2004;Dhombres 2006;Eagleton 2009;Dupré 2009;Brioist 2009a;Mosley 2009;Pantin 2006Pantin , 2009aPantin , 2010Oosterhoff 2014Oosterhoff , 2016Axworthy 2016, 249-300). 22 This work was translated into Italian (along with a treatise on burning mirrors, published in 1551) by Cosimo Bartoli in 1587 as Opere di Orontio Fineo del Delfinato divise in cinque Parti.…”
