  • Influences of 'Kosmos' in 'Earth and Man'
    CHAPTER 30 Influences of ‘Kosmos’ in ‘Earth and Man’ Philip K. Wilson In January and February 1849, a newly emigrated European natural philoso- pher, Arnold Guyot, delivered a series of twelve lectures before the Lowell Institute in Boston. These “enormously popular” lectures introduced several hundred listeners to a new depth of geographical understanding.1 For in these lectures, Guyot expanded the view of geography from a descriptive gazetteer of places and chronology of discovery to an all encompassing view of geog- raphy as “the mutual [inter]actions of . different portions of physical nature upon each other . the perpetual play of which . might be called the life of the globe.”2 Although the newly arrived Guyot was, beyond his investigations into glacial motion, still a relatively unknown figure in the world of science, his lectures attracted many New England savants including Edward Everett, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Horace Mann, Benja- min Pierce, George Ticknor, and Cornelius Conway Felton, the Elliot Profes- 1.

  • Elenco Biografico Dei Soci Dell'accademia Delle
    ELENCO BIOGRAFICO DEI SOCI DELL’ACCADEMIA DELLE SCIENZE 1757-2020 aggiornamento del 28-02-2021 Nel 1973 l’Accademia pubblicò nell’«Annuario» un Dizionario biografico dei Soci dell’Accademia, un elenco di tutti i Soci eletti dal 1757, con le notizie che su di essi l’Archivio dell’Accademia possedeva (in particolare i dati di elezione desunti dai verbali manoscritti). Nel Dizionario alcuni Soci erano indicati con il solo cognome (e in taluni casi esso era riportato in maniera errata sia per motivi di difficile lettura degli originali manoscritti sia per effettivi errori di trascrizione dei nomi stranieri). Il Dizionario è poi stato la base che ha permesso nel corso degli anni di costruire la pagina dei Soci storici sul sito web istituzionale, un repertorio di quasi 3.000 nomi. Nel 2020 con l’avvio del progetto Wikipediano in residenza , condotto grazie a una collaborazione con Wikimedia Italia, l’elenco dei Soci dell’Accademia delle Scienze è stato completamente rivisto, aggiornato e integrato. Questo elenco è uno dei frutti di questo lavoro di revisione e intende porsi come uno strumento parallelo alla consultazione del sito web. In alcuni casi potrebbero esserci incongruenze, imprecisioni e aggiornamenti che intendiamo fare via via grazie anche alle segnalazioni che ci verranno inviate (per e-mail alla biblioteca: [email protected]). In ogni caso l’elemento più aggiornato sarà sempre il sito stesso, ma ancor di più wikidata che essendo strumento di conoscenza collettiva e compartecipata vede migliorare i propri dati di giorno in giorno grazie a quello spirito di crescita del sapere che le è proprio.

Steinach and Schelbert: Adelrich Steinach's Autobiographical Sketch ADELRICH STEINACH' S AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH If the editor dares to enter here [in Geschichte und Leben der Schweizer Kolonien] the list of American-Swiss natural scientists, he does not do it because he assumes to have achieved a name among them, but because he has pursued studies in that field for more than twenty years. The name Severin Ade/rich was given me at baptism on April 26, 1826, on which day I was born in Uznach, Canton St. Gallen in the family of Anton Steinach. At that time I did not know that to pronounce the name would create such difficulty for Americans, otherwise I most likely would have protested. After I had finished the schools of the small town, I went to the Gymnasium Schools of Kreuzlingen, then of St.

    Cemetery Established 1757 OPEN DAILY DAWN TO DUSK 29 Greenview Avenue Telephone: (609) 924-1369 Princeton, NJ 08542-3316 www.princetoncemetery.org Established in 1757, the Princeton Cemetery is owned by Nassau Presbyterian Church and is located near the center of town. It is still an active cemetery and welcomes inquiries for the purchase of lots, burials, or cremations. The inclusive, non-denominational character of the cemetery continues, and interment has never been restricted to church members and their families. Scattered throughout the cemetery are the graves of soldiers, professors, politicians, musicians, scientists, business executives, and writers, as well as those who have called the Princeton area home. Take your time and enjoy the rich history of America captured here, and a small town’s place in that history. The development of the cemetery is deeply rooted in the church, the University, and the larger local community originally settled as Stony Brook in 1681, renamed Princeton in 1724, and incorporated by the state in 1813. The oldest part, formerly known as the Old Graveyard, lies at the intersection of Wiggins and Witherspoon streets. Here one can see some of the earliest European family Princeton Theological Seminary Plot names in the area: Bayard, Berrien, Leonard, Mershon, Skillman, Stockton, and Terhune. This original one-acre parcel of land had been acquired by the College of New Jersey, now Princeton University, in 1757 from Judge Thomas Leonard, a member of the Provincial Council, a year after the College with its seventy students had been moved from Newark to Princeton upon completion of Nassau Hall, still the University's main building.
