| May 28, 2022 at 10:13 | comment | added | Pietro Majer | The book is the first of the four volumes of the posthumous complete collection of Riccati’s works, mainly devoted to Physics, Mathematics, especially Analysis and ODE’s. The last volume has his biography, then writings on Metaphysics, Philosophy, and Religion, and his literary production; poetry, mainly sonnets, and a tragedy (“Il Baldassarre”). | |

| Jan 16, 2017 at 19:53 | comment | added | Tom Copeland | I don't know what the book is about. I'm only familiar wiith his work on the Ricatti equation, which is very important in understanding solion solutions to the KdV, being central to the Lie algebra and associated combinatorics behind such solutions. | |

The woman in the center seems to hold a palm from (symbol of martyrdom) and a monstrance, but Google cannot tell of any martyr woman that is represented with a monstrance. A relationship of the woman with science and/or knowledge is to be expected, but the saint patron of science is Saint Albert Magno. | |
