Summary
Details

Dei Moti Dell'iride, written by Felice Fontana and published in 1765, explores the scientific understanding of the rainbow during the 18th century. This historical work delves into the physics and optics of light, examining theories of color and the formation of the rainbow. Fontana's study offers insights into the scientific thought of his time, reflecting the philosophical underpinnings of scientific inquiry in the Age of Enlightenment.

This work provides a valuable resource for understanding the historical development of optics and physics. The book is a testament to the scientific curiosity and intellectual rigor of the era.
