Tonight we're thumbing through an astronomy book published before the United States was founded, and before EITHER Uranus or Neptune was discovered. Let me know what part of it you'd like to explore further next time.

[@LetsFindOut1]

I agree. thanks for watching red

[@cla_rence]

11:18 on why "s" look like "f" in old books: So this letter ſ is a "long s", it's inherited from roman cursive. It was used instead of our round s at the beginning and in the middle of words in most languages that used the roman alphabet. In typography, it was used until the late 18th century when it was replaced by the s we know and use today Also, may I recommend investing in a futon lectern for these old books ? They're soft but firm cushions which help you to prop up your books in a way that doesn't damage the binding while you read it. Old books, and specifically 16th and 18th century books are not meant to be open wide and doing so repeatedly could deteriorate the sewing and the leather. Just giving you this piece of advice as a book conservator. You seem to like old books and surely want to keep them safe :)

[@wukket]

It would probably blow the authors mind to see how many people his book as reached from your video alone. These kind of numbers were insanely rare for the time, as books were more difficult to create, therefore more difficult to spread to large groups of people…especially world-wide lol and we all know you’re definitely gonna get more views too. So that’s just a crazy thing to think about. This author dude would have been more than happy to have his book in a few universities and a handful of libraries in Europe and America. And you’re sitting here showing it to potentially millions of people. Oh how far we have come.

[@LetsFindOut1]

i know. that's so cool to think about

[@vairpalefroi]

This single book is older than the USA.

you too cristian thanks

[@123TheCloop]

so the "s" looking like an "f" in some words vs others was another variant of the letter "s" (tall version) which was used to separate between hard "s" and soft "s" hence in the word "persons" had only the first "s" changed to the "f" looking "s". the "f" looking s was a soft "s" and the typical "s" being a hard "s"

[@LetsFindOut1]

ah ok. i read that it was phased out not long after this book was written. funny how language evolves

i believe the inscription at the beginning of the book says: R. Burdon Univ. Coll. Oxon. Oxon is an abbreviation for Oxford... in 1773 Rowland Burdon went to Oxford, reading law at the University College.

oh my god yes. The whispers are fantastic. It's hard to describe the differences between certain whisper types, but this is one of the good ones. Barely understandable allows the brain to not focus so heavy on the words and what comes next. A lot of words to say this is lovely and I should be getting up to start my day but I'm simply too much goo to move. ❤❤❤ Delightful.

[@tolia.tolina]

Please be careful with this book, as archivist-librarian these books need extra care, like wearing gloves, not hot temperature, low humidity, away from places that bugs can reach, in a special case, not in a smoking area, away from sunlight. It looks precious, you are holding a museum artifact. Keep it in a good state if you want to make it last. Love your videos, Keep up with the great job 👍 kisses 💚 Ps sometimes in these cases the ink can contain lead. Some mercury. if it is coloured with green paint, arsenic

I believe the "f" is actually called a "medial S", it's an old form of the lowercase s but there's so many rules to it. one of it being, the medial s cannot be used at the end of a word (or a sentence).

It appears the book may have belonged to Rowland Burdon (1756-1838) an English politician, banker, and businessman. He attended University College at Oxford, beginning in 1773, which may match the inside, hand-written inscription, though it's hard to tell. Can't say for sure, but it would be very interesting if it were him.

[@niallsmith5530]

I can make out ‘Univ Coll’ and ‘Oxon’ (short hand for Oxfordshire, still used today) so I would be inclined to agree

This book is amazing! The author sought to teach scientific principles through a chain of logic from how they developed, to help kids better learn them, and understand them by knowing the basis of where they came from. That was something devoid from many textbooks when I went through school.

This book was owned by Rowland Burdon (1756-1838), who studied law at University College, Oxford in 1773 (Univ. Coll. Oxon. in the upper right corner). He probably obtained this book during his studies at Oxford between 1773-1779. Very cool!
