I'm glad you understood it! I'd love to understand half of what I've been PLing.

PL OK!

What an interesting project!

I'll read sections 18, 20, and 24.
(and hopefully learn something about marine barometers, stars, and mortars in the process)

Hello!

I love this book! I'd like to read the following sections from Misc. Curiosa:

Section 21: Isaac Newton, Moon
Section 23: Gravity
Section 25: Measure of Airs
Section 28: Actions of Sun
Section 29: Actions of Sun

Please let me know if there's anything else that you might need from me!
I'm a first-time poster to LibriVox and can be found on the site as readallthepoems

Thank you!

Thank you! This book has been waiting for someone like you to come along

I am assuming you noticed the comments about equations, Latin and Greek and are comfortable with them? I wouldn't be much help, but I'm sure there are people who could help if you need it. Otherwise, you will end up being our 'go to' person when these things crop up

Thank you! That sounds lovely-- Early Modern/Renaissance texts involving theories science, curiosities, bodies, etc. are all a fascination for me, and I work closely with a group of Early Modern/Renaissance scholars when cross-checking unique symbols or phrases. Looking forward to working on these pieces and will keep you posted on progress

)

And if you come across any other older texts along the lines of Miscellane Curiosa, please do let me know! I'd be down for Galileo, Kircher, etc. I also work on texts involving monsters, ex: The Faerie Queene, Ludovico Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, etc!

Brightest wishes! Xx

Once you have become familiar with our process etc, you can always do a solo... You get to choose the book and record the whole thing yourself. Any MC can guide you through the process. You just have to make sure your text is in the public domain! We strongly recommend getting a few sections in group projects under your belt first, though.

Edit: Faerie Queen and Orlando Furioso are already in the catalog - you can still do another version but some readers like to do a "first".
