‎Summary The cult of saints is one of the most fascinating religious developments of Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages. Christians admired martyrs already in the second century, but for a long time they perceived them only as examples to follow and believed they could pray directly to God, whom they addressed as 'Our Father'. A new attitude toward saints, now considered above all as powerful friends of God and efficient intercessors, started to emerge in the third century. Once this process gained momentum in the Constantinian era, the cult of saints constantly changed and rapidly adapted to new conditions and demands. This evolution highlighted many factors: the popularity of specific saints and the different types of sanctity, the spread of cults and customs, and the ways in which the saints were described, visualised, and represented. This volume seeks to capture the dynamic of these adaptations, showing both those aspects of cult which evolved quickly and those which remained stable for a long time. It studies the evolution of the cults in a broad period from the third to the seventh centuries and in various regions from Gaul to Georgia, with a particular interest in the two greatest centres of the cult of saints: Rome and Constantinople. In response to changing needs and different circumstances, new generations of believers repeatedly modified the cults of established saints, even as they introduced new saints.

‎Het boek De Nederlandse Golf Geschiedenis in woord en beeld is een must read voor iedere golfer in Nederland. In twee delen krijgt de lezer een volledig beeld van de geschiedenis van het spel, vanaf de Normandische verovering van Engeland tot en met de grote doorbraak van golf in Nederland en vrijwel alles wat zich daartussen heeft afgespeeld. Hoofdrolspelers, hypothesen en mythes worden beschreven, geanalyseerd en beoordeeld op hun historische merites. In het eerste deel van het boek wordt antwoord gegeven op de veel gestelde vraag wat de oorsprong is van het Schotse golfspel en wat de relatie is met het vroege spel met den colve in de Lage Landen. Het tweede deel geeft een chronologisch en thematisch overzicht van de ontwikkeling van golf in Nederland en laat zien hoe het uitgroeide van vermaak voor de happy few tot het populaire spel van nu. De Nederlandse Golf Geschiedenis is beschreven in heldere tekst, afgewisseld met prachtige, illustratieve afbeeldingen.‎

‎On the Determination of the Constants of the Cup Anemometer by Experiments with a Whirling Machine. Received March 14 - Read April 4, 1878.‎

‎(London, Harrison and Sons, 1879). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" 1879 - Vol. 169 - Part II. Pp. 777-822 a. 5 plates.‎

‎First printing of Robinson's new experiments and researches into the constants of the Cup-Anemometer which he invented in 1846 by modifying Whewell's instrument by the introduction of the now-familiar windmill with hemispherical cups.""A simple type of anemometer is the cup anemometer, invented (1846) by Dr. John Thomas Romney Robinson, of Armagh Observatory. It consisted of four hemispherical cups each mounted on one end of four horizontal arms, which in turn were mounted at equal angles to each other on a vertical shaft. The air flow past the cups in any horizontal direction turned the cups in a manner that was proportional to the wind speed. Therefore, counting the turns of the cups over a set time period produced the average wind speed for a wide range of speeds. On an anemometer with four cups it is easy to see that since the cups are arranged symmetrically on the end of the arms, the wind always has the hollow of one cup presented to it and is blowing on the back of the cup on the opposite end of the cross.""‎

‎Description of the Great Melbourne Telescope.‎

‎First printing of the detailled description of the Great Melbourne Telescope, by Robinson, member of the commitee and Thomas Grubb, the constructor. With it a number of importent observations of Nebulae were carried out. For 20 years it was the largest in the world, and it was the first instrument to document gravitational lens light refraction. The telescope was destroyed during the bush fires of January 2003.""The construction of the grand instrument was entrusted to Mr. Grubb, F.R.S., of Dublin, Ireland. At the Commencement of the year 1868 the telescope was completed, and examined by the Commitee of the Royal Society, made up of Lord Rosse, Dr. Robinson and Warren de la Rue. Intheir report they expressed their opinion that the equatorial was a masterpiece of astronomical mechanism.""‎

‎First appearance of Robiquet's first chemical paper, in which he relates his discovery of asparagine by analysis of asparagus juice, the first amino acid to be discovered. The following year he made the first isolation of this amino acid together with Vaguelin. Pierre Jean Robiquet was a French chemist, who laid founding work in identifying amino acids, the fundamental bricks of proteins, through recognizing the first of them, asparagin, in 1806, in the take up of the industry of industrial dyes, with the identification of alizarin in 1826, and in the emergence of modern medications, through the identification of codeine in 1832, a powerful molecule today of widespread use with analgesic and antidiarrheal properties.‎

‎First printing of Roemer's letter to Leibniz in which he describes his plan for a new observatory and the circle-instrument.""In a letter written to Leibniz, dated December 15, 1700, - (the offered item) - in reply to Leibniz's request for the most suitable plan for an observatory, Roemer describes his plans for the ""Observatorium Tusculanum"". He has an excellent discussion of the need of building the observatory so that it can best serve the function for which it is intended, namely, observation. He probably was thinking of the construction of the Paris Observatory, a beautiful building, but impractical as far as actual observational needs were concerned. He also describes the prime vertical transit and states his preference for the circle as compared to quadrants and sextants, saying that he would have confidence in a circle of four feet in diameter than a quadrant of ten.""
