Even this is, of course, only a fraction of what was published in Latin until the early 20th century. Among the authors who are conspicuously missing one could name, for example, the Swedish botanist, zoologist and physician Carl Linné (1707-1778) who created the modern system of biological nomenclature, and the German Jesuit scholar Athanasius Kircher (1601/02-1680) whose “Ars magna lucis et umbrae” (1645) discusses, among other things, the projection of images and text with mirrors and light across several hundred feet into a camera obscura and who is now seen as one of the people who made film projection possible. Kircher was a scholarly superstar of his time, publishing also in the fields of geology, medicine, Egyptology, and Sinology and keeping up a correspondence with more than 760 scholars worldwide.
