First apperance of this detailled report and examination by the French mathematiciens Mathieu, Chasles and Delaunay of the calculating machine invented by Martin Wiberg as an improvement on the Scheutz machine. The machine could produce tables of logarithms.""Wiberg modified the Scheutz difference engine, making it smaller and lighter, and used it to calculate a series of interest tables published in 1860. Efter improving the print mechanism of his machine, Wiberg presented it to the Academy of Sciences in Paris, which voted in 1863 to ""accorder son approbation à cette belle et ingénieuse machine"" (the paper offered). Wiberg later used the machine to produce a set of tables of seven-place logarithms of the numbers from 1 to 1000,000 together with logarithms of trigonometric functions, published in 1876 under the title 'Tables de logarithmes calculées et imprimées au moyen de la machine à calculer sw M. Wiberg'. (Hook & Norman ""Origins of Cyberspace"", No. 82).

"MATTEUCCI, CARLO. - THE DISCOVERY OF THE ""CURRENT OF INJURY"" AND THE ""CURRENT OF REST"".

First appearance of a main paper in the history of electro-physiology.""The discovery by Volta of means for producing galvanic currents led to the construction of a galvanometer for measuring currents and later to its refinement.... In 1841 Matteucci presented... a paper which showed that a galvanometer indicates a curring flowing whenh it is connected from the surface of a muscle to a wound in the muscle, a current that was later called the ""current of injury"" and also the ""current of rest"", since it flowed without observable muscular contraction. Johannes Müller showed tis paper to his brilliant pupil, du Bois-reymond... Du Bois interest was caught at once. He published his first paper on ""thierische Electricität"" in 1843, and his two-volumes on the subject - soon to become the classic - in 1848-49.""(Boring ""History of Experimental Psychology"", p. 40).

Summary Carolingian Experiments presents essays exploring how the Carolingians (ca. 700-ca. 900 CE) ? a regime known especially for concerns over imperial power, order, and moral correction ? fostered a remarkable era of experimentation in medieval Europe. The scholars featured here ask new questions and conduct their own methodological experiments to uncover some of the many ways that people innovated within the Carolingian world. To that end, numerous themes are covered in this volume: culture and society, family and politics, religion and spirituality, literature and historiography, law and hierarchy, epistemology and science. This array of scholarly experiments reveals some of the range and depth of Carolingian invention. Furthermore, the essays consider how Carolingian innovation can be found in places both more and less known today, employing novel approaches to unearth some unexpected, even uncanny phenomena. This volume consequently offers a defamiliarizing view of the Franks, unveiling them as a people whose seemingly straightforward imperialism and reform were effective precisely because they stimulated and nurtured potent, creative impulses. In fact, one might argue that the Carolingian world's conservative, moralizing authorities ? despite, or perhaps at times because of, their determination to instil correct thought and behaviour in their subjects ? fostered many varieties of experimentation. Collectively, the authors of this volume seek to inspire new thinking about the Carolingians, while modelling alternative approaches and potential avenues for future research. Carolingian Experiments overall encourages readers to see that much remains unexplored, unknown and even unexpected about the Carolingians and their world.

Summary This volume, the first in the new series Transcultural Medieval Studies, draws together scholars from around the world to offer new insights into the importance and role of the Bible across the varied cultures of medieval Europe. The papers gathered here take a comparative and multidisciplinary approach to the subject, focusing on the biblical background of perceptions of the religious and cultural 'Self ' and 'Other' in the Mediterranean, in Latin Europe, and in the Baltic. In doing so, the contributions identify commonalities and differences of the 'uses of the Bible' in these various worlds, combining and contrasting studies on Bible manuscripts, their exegesis, and their use for historical writing.

Summary Graphic devices such as tables and diagrams and other visual strategies of organising text and information are an essential part of communication. The use of these devices and strategies in books and documents developed throughout the medieval and early modern periods, as knowledge was translated and circulated in European vernaculars. Yet the use of graphic practices and multimodal literacies associated with them have mostly been examined in the context of Latin, Greek, Arabic, and Hebrew, and early vernacular writing remains an under-researched area. This volume brings together contributors from English historical linguistics and book studies to highlight multimodal graphic practices and literacies in texts across a range of genres and text types from the late medieval period until the eighteenth century. Contributions in the volume investigate both handwritten and printed materials, from books in the domains of medicine, religion, history, and grammar, to administrative records and letter writing.

First appearance of this classic paper in whic Maupas determined that fertilization in protozoa is essential to the indefinite continuation of a cell strain. His discovery proved an importent stimulus to subsequent investigation not only upon protozoa but also in the area of parthenogenesis.""He found in Paramecium that after generations of division, the stock becomes infeebled. Ultimately the individuals die, unless they meet partners for conjugation. When two such enfeebled individuals meet, their bodies are approximated and they interchange nuclear elements. Next, division takes place. The stock has regained its vigour. No differentiation of sexes is evident in the conjugatory process, though such differentiation can be traced in other prorozoa.""(Singer ""The Story of Living Tings"", p. 531 ff.).Thomas Hall ""A Source Book in Animal Biology"", pp. 458-60.

"MAUPERTUIS, PIERRE LOUIS. - CONFIRMING NEWTON'S DYNAMIC AND THE FLATTENING OF THE EARTH.
Reference : 51275
(1740)
(Paris, L'Imprimerie Royale, 1740). 4to. Without wrappers. Extracted from ""Mémoires de l'Academie des Sciences. Année 1737"". Pp. 389-469, 1 engraved map (from Torneå to Kittis) and 5 folded engraved plates.
First printing of the official report from the French Academy of the geodetic expedition to Lapland in order to settle the conflict between Earth-elangators and Earth-flatteners, between the French and the British. ""Newton had calculated from the Earth's rotational force at the Equator that its equatoeial diameter should exceed its polar diameter by 0.44 per cent, or 27 km (17 miles)"" similar in Jupiter, rotating more than twice as fast, the disparity of the diameters was shown to be even greater... In France, however, tha Cassinis from geodetic measurements stretching along the meridian at Paris from the Channel to the Pyrennees came to exactly the opposite conclusion - that the polar diameter of the Earth was the greater. After Maupertuis had examined this imcompatibility in 1733, the Academy of Sciences decided that it should be settled by measure of a degree of latitude taken in two widely separated parts of the globe. Maupertuis, with Clairaut, took a party to the Golf ofBothnia. La Condamine, with Bouguer, took another to Peru. maupertuis departed in May 1736 and was absent for a year, only in December (1737) was he able to announce the result that, in accordance with Newton's dynamical theory, the degreee in the far north was loner than that in Paris. More years elepsed before the degreee in Peru was found to be shorter. As Voltaire put in a wrily witty (but un-Baconian) couplet addresseed to Maupertuis:""In tedious deserts you were forced to roam. To find the truth that Newton knew at home."" (Rupert Hall ""Revolution in Science 1500-1750, pp.351-52).Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1736-37 E.

Fisr edition of an importent paper in which Maupertuis articulates his final synthesis of his earler work on the status of natural laws of motion and with is reflexions on epistemological certainty.
