Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... In his 'Maniere de copier sur le Verre colore les Pierres Gravies' in the 'Memoires de l'Academie Royale des Sciences' (Ann DEGREESe, MDCCXII. Paris, MDCCXIV.), pp. 189-97, M- Guillaume Homberg speaks of the need for each person who attempts the matter to invent the process afresh, as it is always kept a secret by those who follow the use of it for a livelihood. He had himself to go through something of the kind, and, having been aided by the influence of the Duke of Orleans and of Madame, he was allowed to reproduce all the gems of the Royal Cabinet and those (pretty numerous) of Madame. He attained such perfection that many could not distinguish his copies from the originals. He describes his process as simply taking a mould in fine earth, en une terre fort fine, on which is pressed a piece of glass softened by fire or half melted. To prevent the ill effect of partial fusion of the mould by the glass, the best earth for the mould is the kind of chalk called tripoli. Of the two sorts of this, French and Levantine, the latter, commonly called Venice tripoli, is the best. It should be soft, like velvet to the touch, and free from admixture of other earths or of grains of sand. Both kinds, however, have their uses, as 74 follows: --Pound French tripoli in an iron mortar and pass it through a hair sieve, and keep for use. The Venice tripoli should be scraped with a knife or a piece of glass, very fine and very little at a time, it should then be passed through a very fine silk sieve and pounded in a glass mortar with a glass pestle. The finer it is the better the impression. Tripoli cannot be treated with water (like emery) to select the finest powder, because this causes the particles to separate on drying, which produces a granular appearan

Book Ireland and Medicine in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries

Download or read book Ireland and Medicine in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries written by James Kelly and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of early modern medicine, with its extremes of scientific brilliance and barbaric practice, has long held a fascination for scholars. The great discoveries of Harvey and Jenner sit incongruously with the persistence of Galenic theory, superstition and blood-letting. Yet despite continued research into the period as a whole, most work has focussed on the metropolitan centres of England, Scotland and France, ignoring the huge range of national and regional practice. This collection aims to go some way to rectifying this situation, providing an exploration of the changes and developments in medicine as practised in Ireland and by Irish physicians studying and working abroad during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Bringing together research undertaken into the neglected area of Irish medical and social history across a variety of disciplines, including history of medicine, Colonial Latin American history, Irish, and French history, it builds upon ground-breaking work recently published by several of the contributors, thereby augmenting our understanding of the role of medicine within early modern Irish society and its broader scientific and intellectual networks. By addressing fundamental issues that reach beyond the medical institutions, the collection expands our understanding of Irish medicine and throws new light on medical practices and the broader cultural and social issues of early modern Ireland, Europe, and Latin America. Taking a variety of approaches and sources, ranging from the use of eplistolary exchange to the study of medical receipt books, legislative practice to belief in miracles, local professionalization to international networks, each essay offers a fascinating insight into a still largely neglected area. Furthermore, the collection argues for the importance of widening current research to consider the importance and impact of early Irish medical traditions, networks, and practices, and their interaction with related issues, such as politics, gender, economic demand, and religious belief.

Book The Iconography of Sir Isaac Newton to 1800

Download or read book The Iconography of Sir Isaac Newton to 1800 written by Milo Keynes and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalogue and iconography of the extraordinary wealth of images of Sir Isaac Newton, both before and after his death. Sir Isaac Newton [1642-1727] is rare among figures of the past for the number of authentic paintings, engravings and images of him which survive. He was painted by some nine different artists in the latter part of his life, and after his death both portraits and sculptures continued to proliferate, the amazing demand for representations of his image demonstrating his immense fame. This iconography, lavishly illustrated in both colour and black and white, and involving the disciplines of History of Art and History of Science, catalogues 231 icons in two sections, and is thus an invaluable guide to the images. Part I contains 122 portraits and Part II 109 sculptures, about fifty of which were produced before his death, the rest from then until 1800.
