Inhaltsangabe

Step inside the workshop of history and watch Lancaster County take shape on the page. History lives in these pages. First published in 1916, Papers Read Before The Lancaster County Historical Society (Volume XX, No. 10) gathers local history essays that range from a reflective study of how historians work to a detailed survey of the Philadelphia Lancaster Turnpike Road, a landmark in early Pennsylvania transportation history. As historical society proceedings, they capture voices close to the events, preserving the concerns, methods, and memories of the Lancaster County Historical Society at a moment when the modern study of the past was still being defined. For readers tracing family lines in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, this primary source reference book is an invaluable resource for genealogists, rich with names, places, and contemporary perspectives. For scholars and students, it offers a vivid case study in the historiography of local history and in American turnpike road history, making it a rewarding research collection for historians of early Pennsylvania history and wider regional development. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, thoughtfully presented for both curious general readers and serious collectors of classic local history.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The author of "Picatrix" was likely a highly educated and intellectually versatile scholar, deeply rooted in the Arabic-speaking world of the 11th century. He was well-versed in a variety of disciplines, including astrology, alchemy, and philosophy, drawing on Greek, Persian, and Indian sources. As a participant in the Islamic Golden Age's rich scholarly tradition, he likely had access to extensive libraries and intellectual circles. His work suggests a blend of academic knowledge and practical application, indicating both theoretical understanding and hands-on experience in astrological and magical practices.
