This 1879 Latin dissertation was the first substantial work on Archimedes by the Danish philologist Johan Ludvig Heiberg (1854–1928). The book features chapters on the Greek scientist's life, works and mathematics. A survey of the extant codices and the Greek text of Psammites (The Sand Reckoner) are also included.
