Hey #histodons und #earlymodons !

Ich habe gestern festgestellt, dass ich vd17.de nicht aufrufen kann (internal Server Error). Liegt‘s an mir oder habe ich eine kleine Katastrophe verpasst?

How to cut fruit correctly and beautifully in 16 ways? What is the current method of carving a roast partridge? What about this fish? A short thread for #FoodHistory and friends.

Well, a book from 1642 answers it all. The book about these knife skills and "how to cut" fruit and meat was a bestseller authored by Georg Philipp Harsdörffer (1607-1658). His "Newes TrincirBüchlein" (VD17 23:298595Z) can be found here:

You may have seen early modern monsters, sure, but what about this cannon flipper fish thing of 1669 #Valencia? #bookhistory #histodons #monsterdon #EarlyModons #history #histknow

Has anyone who has visited Schloss Ambras any thoughts on how long it takes to do everything fully and slowly? A full (7-hour) day with meal breaks? 1.5 or 2 days? Thanks! #Histodons #EarlyModons #Twitterstorians

"I come now to another Engine, which we may properly call the Perpetual Motion, because no sooner is it dash’d on the ground, but it presently rises again with a jerk, and plays with as much activity as ever." - Pierre Bayle, 'Philosophical Commentary on These Words of the Gospel, Luke 14.23, “Compel Them to Come In, That My House May Be Full”'

Hadn't realised the Perpetual Motion machine idea was around in the 17th century.

Turn me around. This is a printed "Drehbild" from 1558 Germany, likely designed for and sold to Protestants as a decor paper, or simply to have a turn-around paper device handy.

If you zoom in, dear #EarlyModons and #histodons: it's a #pope that turns into a devilish satyr.

A thread not only for #bookhistory and #EarlyModernHistory

I'm a little emotional today since I just heard that my book made it to the - hsozkult - starting page thanks to Elisabeth Heijmans' wonderful book review.

VANITAS VERITAS

Of the about 7000 emblem books that were published in Europe during the early modern period, this motto and image is right to the point for #bookhistory and #mediahistory. Enjoy this thread #EarlyModons and #histodons where you will meet the publishing business, writing as a craft, and an advice to not publish too much.

A look inside an early modern book shop: a thread for #histodons and #bookhistory experts.

Expect surprises, nowadays book buyers. I am using printed images of the chapter dedicated to bookseller's shops of the "Orbis Sensualium Pictus" (Visible World in Pictures) from John Amos #Comenius. The book was firstly published in 1658 and became a widely reprinted and variated children's textbook for centuries.

Enjoy, #EarlyModons, and @bookstodon and @histodons.
