​​@@PizzaHunter420This is a facsimile. This is what a 1:1 copy of an original book is called. If this would be the original book from 1658 the grease on your fingers would immediately make the old paper brittle. You would have to handle the book with cloth gloves to avoid damaging it. In addition, the air would probably be too dry for the paper. Old paper quickly breaks down when the humidity fluctuates. He wouldn't do that to a book that old. Furthermore, a book this old in such condition would be much more valuable and expensive than just $100, it would be almost priceless.

20:58 Trying my best here. It has been a long time since I have used Latin. So here it goes. "Longe est periculosissimus" = It is by far the most dangerous thing "ex libris colligere" = to collect from books "qua Authores prodidierunt" = which authors have revealed/published "Rerum ipsarum cognitio" = The knowledge of things themselves "est vera" = is true "è rebus ipsis" = and of the things themselves (I'm not entirely sure of that part) So I guess it pretty much means that you shouldn't just trust other people's words and need to find out the truth for yourself. Knowledge of something is just as important as actually having experience with that something. Sorry that was longer than expected! As always a lovely video. Thank you very much! ❤

@@麒麟麦酒-u5w In 48 BC, during Caesar's Civil War, Julius Caesar was besieged at Alexandria. His soldiers set fire to some of the Egyptian ships docked in the Alexandrian port while trying to clear the wharves to block the fleet belonging to Cleopatra's brother Ptolemy XIV. This fire purportedly spread to the parts of the city nearest to the docks, causing considerable devastation. The first-century AD Roman playwright and Stoic philosopher Seneca the Younger quotes Livy's Ab Urbe Condita Libri, which was written between 63 and 14 BC, as saying that the fire started by Caesar destroyed 40,000 scrolls from the Library of Alexandria. The Greek Middle Platonist Plutarch (c. 46-120 AD) writes in his Life of Caesar that, "[W]hen the enemy endeavored to cut off his communication by sea, he was forced to divert that danger by setting fire to his ships, which, after burning the docks, thence spread on and destroyed the great library."

For people saying it's a facsimile, it is not, in the UK books as old as this and older are very commonly available. I own several and I'm not some rich old antiquarian lol. The same is true of the price, which in this case is a reflection of its poor condition. BUT the way it was being handled was horrifying, it will hardly last one more reading treated like that, I'm watching the end of a beautiful book here and it's heartbreaking to me 😢 'The pages are a bit stiff here so I'll just bend and fold them to get them open' aaargh 😫 If they're stiff you turn them with a flat page-turner, if they won't turn or are stuck together you need to send the book to a book restorer, not just have a go at it with your hands 😖 I was just cringing at the handling of it. White gloves are NEVER worn with old books in a readable condition because they are too clumsy and reduce finger sensation so cause more damage than protection. The idea that oils from your fingers will damage the paper is a misconception. Unfortunately it was turning the book over and bending it that caused the front pages to be torn free, 'I hope that wasn't me' - yes, it was ☹ It's not a 'bendy' soft-cover book, it's a stiff hard-cover book lacking its cover, which is not the same thing. HOWEVER, all that being said, I really enjoyed your reading of it and your insights, which were very intersting.

I think your idea about how science makes the world seem less magical makes sense and I see where you’re coming from. However, from my perspective and as a Christian it’s the complete opposite. The incredible complexity and detail of all things, from the fine-tuned laws of nature to the inner workings of natural ecosystems to the fascinating machines that are cells, to our brain’s unique ability to capture consciousness and use simple atoms and chemicals to allow us to make sense of life and make deep personal connections, our world is filled with beauty that we can’t even conceive of, and to me it just makes it feel like everything is so well designed that there must be a designer. I totally respect and understand your view, just wanted to add my perspective. Great video!

Are you sure the book itself was printed in 1658? Most likely it was an 1814 reprint of a book written in 1658. I mean it's still old being the early 1800's. Still worth the price in my opinion. But very doubtful the book itself is from the 1600's. I have several books from the 1800's and the paper, ink and binding (what's left of it) looks very similar. But alas, I have no books from the 1600's to do a comparison.

Water boiling into tea, herbs turning into medical cream, Gold becoming a value substance or coin. Stating which part of the raw process it’s in. Spanish has many many words like this that define specific things and those terms don’t exist in any other language. It seems they used it here.)

Hey man, long term viewer (and subscriber) here, I had an idea I thought I'd share with you; I think it would be really interesting to do a biology series, and you could break it down into the different systems in the body. I'm not sure if you've done this before, but I immediately thought of all people you'd be best suited to cover it, even if biology isn't your forte, after all, my physics teacher at school was technically a chemist lol. I had the idea just now when I was wondering which kidney is the best in the body, of all things. And of course, great video! I love old books of any kind, especially subjects such as this. This is just an idea I thought I'd share. Your work is much appreciated, your videos induce a feeling of tranquility and calm, especially with the background music you add.

Very interesting and cool unboxing. I believe that “f” style s was done away with in the early 1800’s. Printed and written text during the American Revolution still included the “f” style.

an expert who is knowledgeable in the printing and manufacturing processes of books from the time period would analyse it, if it were a fake it would most likely be spotted. If the book has other copies that have previously been authenticated then they can be used as a comparison. None of this is necessary for selling old books however many cautious and wealthy buyers of these books might hire an expert to appraise the item before making their decision.

It's so interesting to think about and imagine who the people were who made and read this book or old books in general. It's fascinating how many hands it must have been touched by, and to think that it somehow made it through all those years and all those hands is truly remarkable. Not sure if this is interesting to anyone or if you explained this in another video, but the "s" sound you talked about in the beginning is not related to the length of the sound per se but has to do with what is called the "voicing" of the sound, which is part of the field of phonetics. The "s" in "presumed" is voiced, when you touch the front of your throat while saying the word out loud, you'll feel a vibration. The "s" in "soft", for example, is unvoiced, so you won't feel a vibration. The same works for some other sounds that are similar to each other, like p and b or t and d.

42:53 “rambling”: I’ve never really liked how there’s a term that conveys someone expressing what they find transfixing and powerful to be undesired, unwanted or discouraged-a negative connotation-as if an expression of wonder or emphasis is meant to never be verbalized or shared for some reason. Just my thought; seems strange.

i agree it should'nt have asuch a negative connotation, but i do think i have a hard time making a point

When I think about it the expression is the point; for example, if someone remarks on the beauty of the sight of a sun setting behind an already impressive mountain the point is to express the dopamine from the awe and appreciation. Perhaps one could argue it might be aimless speech; however, one’s words never have to have a logical or practical reason to be said that seeks to forward or prove something, such as the example from above. I guess there can be times where certain “rambling” is considered a display of self-absorption, but that’s the kind of negative connotation that discourages expression, which at least here is untrue.

a "long s" is not a different sound, just a different shape of the same letter. The long s was preferred in certain positions in a word, but again, it represented the same s sound as a short s.

I think “soft bound” was what was written in the upper left. To be supine means to being laying down, so supinity is related to laziness, I believe. Really enjoyed the video.
