The _Exercitationes_ were first published in 1621, four years after the death of the author. The work belongs to the long tradition of studies on the pseudo-Aristotelian _Mechanical Problems_ developed during the Renaissance but, unlike most other works written during the sixteenth century, it takes a critical position against the theoretical approach of the pseudo-Aristotelian text. The _Exercitationes_ display a systematic application of Archimedean principles to the explanation of the questions discussed in _Mechanical Problems_ illustrating the patchwork character of preclassical mechanics. Moreover, Baldi's work presents lengthy digressions that considerably widen the boundaries of mechanics. 531 $aMAX PLANCK RESEARCH LIBRARY FOR THE HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF KNOWLEDGE / SOURCES ; 3 610 $aearly modern period 610 $aMPRL 610 $aEdition Open Access 610 $amechanics 610 $ahistory of science 700 $aElio Nenci$4auth$01296679 701 $aNenci$bElio$0256964 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910134010603321 996 $aBernardino Baldi?s In mechanica Aristotelis problemata exercitationes$93024214 997 $aUNINA
