Catalogue Note
Toulousain né en 1601, Maignan entre chez les Minimes à Toulouse en 1618 où il enseigne les mathématiques de 1625 à 1636. Il quitte Toulouse pour Rome. Il y devient professeur de philosophie et de mathématiques. Le deuxième axe de sa production personnelle, dont son enseignement se fait sans doute l'écho, est l'optique : sa Perspectiva horaria propose une synthèse de ses travaux.
