Hello esteemed scholars,
I signed up to pose a Herculean task.
I managed to unearth one of my earlier ancestors' thesis in Latin, and to my utter dismay found out that it has never been translated into any other language. The language of academia back in the day was -- as you well know -- Latin, and the (rather short, only 8 short pages) thesis was merely archived, never translated.
There are surely knowledgeable masters of the Latin glossa on here that can aid me in providing, if not a direct translation (of even a little part), at least some pointers in the right directions.
The manuscript in question can be found by clicking the below link:

If anyone of the members here could provide assistance with this, I would be very grateful.
Thank you.
