| May 1, 2019 at 10:17 | comment | added | Allawonder | I agree with you that Bruce's translation is sometimes difficult to understand. I hinted at something like that in my last comment. However, since there are no others... | |
| May 1, 2019 at 10:06 | comment | added | Michael Bächtold | @Allawonder Thanks! I had forgotten Blanton's translation but was aware of Bruce's. I haven't read much of Bruce's translation, but noticed in one particular case, that it was not of much help. | |
| May 1, 2019 at 9:41 | comment | added | Allawonder | Oh, but John D. Blanton has made a translation on the first nine chapters on the one on differentials, published by Springer-Verlag as Foundations of Differential Calculus. It's sad that Blanton doesn't complete the work. However, Ian Bruce has commenced on an ambitious translation project, where he has translated both books completely -- however, I cannot say it reads as nicely as Blanton's translation, but since I'm not able to read Latin I have to do only with what's available. See Bruce's project at 17centurymaths.com | |

| May 1, 2019 at 8:50 | comment | added | Allawonder | Oh, I see. You want the German editions. I was implicitly assuming this project is only about English translations. Sorry. | |
| May 1, 2019 at 8:47 | comment | added | Michael Bächtold | @Allawonder: those two books are translations from Latin to German by Johann Michelsen. | |
| Apr 30, 2019 at 17:42 | comment | added | Allawonder | Wow! Did Euler ever publish in German? I thought he published all in Latin. | |
