English translations of this work exist from another source language, but this specific text has never been translated.
The 1482 edition of Euclid's 'Elements' is the first printed edition, which contains the Latin translation of the work by Campanus of Novara (based on earlier Arabic versions). While numerous English translations of Euclid's 'Elements' exist (starting with Billingsley in 1570), these are translations of the Greek original or other versions, not a translation of the specific Latin text by Campanus of Novara found in the 1482 edition. Therefore, this specific Latin text has not been translated into English.
