Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Miscellanea Berol[i]nensia ad incrementum scientiarum, ex scriptis Societati Regiae Scientiarum exhibitis edita. Berlin, Joh. Chr. Papen 1710. - Erstausgabe des Meilensteins der Computergeschichte - Leibniz' Beschreibung seiner berühmten Rechenmaschine - Enthält 13 weitere Abhandlungen von Leibniz zur Mathematik, Chemie, dem chinesischen Go-Spiel (mit Kupfertafel), Chemie u. a. - Prächtiges Zeugnis für die überragende Universalgelehrtheit des Wissenschaftlers, Erfinders und Philosophen Leibniz Der berühmte Sammelband mit Aufsätzen der von Leibniz gegründeten Berliner Societät der Wissenschaften. Ein Fortsetzungsband erschien erst 1723. Enthält in den drei Abteilungen Literaria, Physica & Medica, Mathematica & Mechanica 60 wissenschaftliche Arbeiten, darunter 13 eigenständige Abhandlungen von Leibniz sowie einen Briefwechsel zwischen Leibniz und Bernoulli aus den Jahren 1707-09 (genaue Aufstellung bei Ravier). Von größter Bedeutung ist Leibniz' Aufsatz Brevis descriptio Machinae Arithmeticae , die erste gedruckte Beschreibung der ersten Vierspezies-Rechenmaschine. Die Erfindung der auf dem Prinzip der Staffelwalze funktionierenden Maschine für alle 4 Grundrechenarten geht bereits auf das Jahr 1670 zurück, seitdem arbeitete Leibniz zeitlebens an ihrer Verbesserung. Das einzig erhaltene und funktionierende Exemplar befindet sich heute in der Niedersächsischen Landesbibliothek. 'Die wesentlichen Grundlagen der Computertechnik, so die Rechenmaschine - sogar die dyadische -, die Dyadik selbst, der infinitesimale und der logische Kalkül, die Kombinatorik und die Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung (etc.) sind von ihm entdeckt oder entscheidend weiterentwickelt worden' (NDB XIV, 130). Weitere wichtige Beiträge von Leibniz zur Infinitesimalrechnung sind Symbolismus memorabilis calculi algebraici et infinitesimalis (S. 160-165) sowie zur Gravitation Constructio problematis ducendi rectas quae tangunt lineas centrorum gravitatis (S. 170-173), dieser gefolgt von Bernoullis De appropinquationibus . Neben dem wegweisenden Aufsatz zur Erfindung des Phosphors Historia inventionis Phosphori und Beiträgen zur Naturgeschichte sind noch zwei bedeutende Arbeiten der Abteilung Literaria zu erwähnen: Annotatio de quibusdam ludis zum Go-Spiel (Weiqi), dem chinesischen Umzingelungs-Schachspiel (Cantor III, 354f.; Van der Linde I, 91; Walravens 150 Anm. zum ebenfalls enthaltenen De libris sinensibus von La Croze), und De originibus gentium ductis potissimum ex indicio linguarum , 'in denen er vergleichende Sprachgeschichte und Etymologie als historische Hilfswissenschaften einsetzte' (NDB XIV, 128).
