Abstract
Many of the treatises on mathematics and mechanics written during the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries either explicitly deal with military matters such as artillery, arrangement of troops or fortifications, or claim that mathematics and mechanics are indispensable to military leaders. This article looks at an Italian mathematician, Niccolo Tartaglia, and at the way mathematics and war were associated in his life and work.
