The cycle of Lectures “Lectiones Commandinianae” was founded in honour of the famous Italian mathematician Federico Commandino (Urbino 1509-1575). Well known are his mathematical texts and his activity of editing translations of ancient books of mathematics. His production includes translations with commentaries of Archimedes, Ptolemy, Euclid, Aristarchus, Pappus, Apollonius, Eutocius, Heron and Serenus. The Lectiones Commandinianae are organized by the Department of Philosophy of the University of Urbino “Carlo Bo”. Given by scholars of international prominence, the lectures are intended to provide a general audience with an overview of some of the modern developments of history and philosophy of sciences.
