The title "Scala gramaldelli" is symbolic, referring to the ladder needed to climb the tower of mathematics, and key (grimaldello) to unlock the highest chamber at the top; both implements are depicted on the title-page. The author was a private teacher of arithmetic in Verona and expert surveyor. He divides this work in three parts: the first two are aimed at merchants, and deal with commercial transactions, roots and algebra (Regola della cosa); the third is for land surveyors, and devoted to practical geometry and problems of measurement. Here Feliciano provides the first printed explanation of the use of the surveyor's cross (squadro agrimensorio). Eleven editions are recorded by Riccardi, the last dated 1692; “Few books had greater influence on the subsequent teaching of elementary mathematics” (Smith).
