Laurent-Benoit Dewez (1731-1812) was als hofarchitect van de Oostenrijkse landvoogd Karel van Lotharingen, zonder twijfel de meest vooraanstaande architect uit onze regio. Meer bepaald stond zijn oeuvre in het teken van de creatie van een unitaire ?Eglise Belgique?. Vandaag is de rijke architecturale nalatenschap van Dewez nog steeds aanwezig in ons (Leuvens) straatbeeld. Toch lijkt slechts een selecte groep hem nog te kennen. Tijdens het jubileumjaar ter ere van het 900-jarig bestaan van de Abdij van Vlierbeek, brengen we hulde aan de ontwerper van de Kerk en het Nieuw Abtskwartier met de uitgave van een luxueuze monografie

First appearance of a classic paper in which Proust describes his discovery of Grape.Sugar and the identificationof this with glucose. He investigated the varieties of sugar that occur in sweet vegetable juices, distinguishing three kinds, and he showed that the sugar in grapes, of which he announced the existence to his classes at Madrid, is identical with that obtained from honey by the Russian chemist J. T. Lowitz.Proust is famous for his work on the steadiness of composition of chemical compounds.""In chemistry, the law of definite proportions, sometimes called Proust's Law, states that a chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass. An equivalent statement is the law of constant composition, which states that all samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition. For example, oxygen makes up 8/9 of the mass of any sample of pure water, while hydrogen makes up the remaining 1/9 of the mass. Along with the law of multiple proportions, the law of definite proportions forms the basis of stoichiometry.""(Wikipedia).

First printing of this milestone paper, containing the first scientific classification of foodstuffs as carbonhydrates, fats, proteins, and water.""The brilliant demonstration in 1824 that the gastric juices of animals contains hydrochloric acid appeared incredible to many of Prout's contemporaries. Yet in 1827 (in the paper offered) they readily adopted his classification of foodstuffs into water, saccharinous (carbonhydrates), oleagineous (fats), and albuminous (proteins). Although Prout promised detailled analyses of the three organic aliments, only those of the saccharinous class were published by him. As a vitalist, Prout maintained that organized bodies (which were composed from organic substances) contained ""independent existing vital principles.""Under the influence of these teleological agents, the four aliments were transformed into blood and tissues. Prout termed the process of digestion and blood formation ""primary assimilation."" ""Secondary assimilation"" (Liebig's ""metamorphosis of tissues"") included both the process of tissue formmation from blood and the destruction and removal of unwanted parts from the animal system. The absorption and removal of water from processed aliments were the principal chemical features of chylification and sanguification, respectively. Organization of processed aliments could not occur, however, without the presence and admixture of minute amounts of water or of elements other than carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. In 1827 Prout coined the word (in the paper offered) ""merorganized"" to denote the isomerism and vitalization of organic substances by the presence of these incidental materials.""(DSB XI, p. 173). - Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1827 C.
