1611,
Johannes Kepler,
Strena seu de nive sexangula 22:
- In plano pugna, necessario igitur figura plana, at non necessario figura talis, quae ad nullum corpus secum ipsa coeat, sed ideo solum talis quia ut corporibus physicis figurae respondent, quae solidum ambeunt, sic planitiebus figurae quae solidum non ambeunt.
- The battle is on the plane, so necessarily a flat shape, but not necessarily such a shape which combines with its own kind to come up against no body, but for that reason alone such shapes correspond to physical bodies which encircle a solid, just as shapes which do not encircle a solid have flatness.
