Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references.

This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ▶ 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin, 1706~1790)은 우리에게 미국 건국의 아버지(Founding Fathers of the United States), 즉 정치인이자 외교관으로써의 이미지 혹은 프랭클린 플래너(Franklin Planner)란 브랜드로 친숙하지만, 그의 저서 중에서는 과학자(scientist)이자 발명가(inventor)로써의 면모도 확인할 수 있는 작품도 여럿 있습니다. 미국 필라델피아에서 만든 전기에 대한 실험과 관찰(Experiments and Observations on Electricity Made at Philadelphia in America by Benjamin Franklin, 1751)과 사후에 출간된 벤자민 프랭클린과 최초의 풍선(Benjamin Franklin and the First Balloons by Benjamin Franklin, 1907) 등이 대표적인 ‘과학자 프랭클린의 연구집’으로 자연 현상에 대한 그의 뜨거운 탐구심과 체계적인 실험을 통해 현상의 이해를 도모하는 연구자로써의 면모를 여실히 만나실 수 있습니다. 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics)과 함께 어제도, 오늘도, 내일도 멋진 문학여행을! B ▶ 벤자민 프랭클린의 최초의 풍선 1907(Benjamin Franklin and the First Balloons by Benjamin Franklin)은 벤자민 프랭클린이 1783년 영국의 런던 왕립학회(The Royal Society of London)의 박물학자 겸 식물학자 조지프 뱅크스 경(Sir Joseph Banks, 1743~1820)에게 보낸 다섯 통의 편지를 묶은 편집본입니다. 당시 벤자민은 프랑스 궁정 장관(Minister to the Court of France)으로서 공직을 수행하는 바쁜 와중에도 틈틈이 편지를 쓴 것인데, 그의 새로운 발명에 대한 열정을 보여주는 증거로써 흥미롭지 않을 수 없습니다. ▶ BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND THE FIRST BALLOONS. BY ABBOTT LAWRENCE ROTCH. The recent bi-centenary of Franklin’s birth, which coincided with the revival of interest in balloons, makes this a timely topic, especially since Franklin’s descriptions of the first balloon ascensions are almost unknown and do not appear among his philosophical papers. The five letters which I have the honor to present were written to Sir Joseph Banks, President of the Royal Society of London, in 1783, when Franklin was Minister to the Court of France and, with the collateral documents, they give perhaps the most complete and accurate account of the beginning of aerial navigation, enlivened with the humor and speculation characteristic of the writer. It is certainly remarkable that Franklin, in the midst of diplomatic and social duties, could have found time to investigate personally this new invention of which he at once appreciated the possibilities. ▷ 벤자민 프랭클린과 최초의 풍선. 애보트 로렌스 로치. 풍선에 대한 관심의 부활과 일치하는 최근 프랭클린의 탄생 200주년은 특히 최초의 풍선 상승에 대한 프랭클린의 설명이 거의 알려져 있지 않고 그의 철학적 논문에 나타나지 않기 때문에 이 주제를 시기적절한 주제로 만듭니다. 내가 소개하는 다섯 통의 편지는 1783년 프랭클린이 프랑스 궁정의 장관이었을 때 런던 왕립 학회 회장인 조셉 뱅크스 경에게 쓴 것입니다. 항공 항법의 시작에 대한 정확한 설명은 작가 특유의 유머와 추측으로 활기를 띱니다. 프랭클린이 외교적, 사회적 임무를 수행하는 중에도 이 새로운 발명품을 개인적으로 조사할 시간을 찾았다는 것은 확실히 놀라운 일입니다. ▶ The documents which I publish are copies of Franklin’s letters, made on thin paper in a copying press (probably the rotary machine invented by Franklin), and all but one bear his signature in ink. They have corrections in the author’s hand-writing and, except for a few words, are quite legible. They were purchased by me from Dodd, Mead & Co., in December, 1905, and previously had belonged to G. M. Williamson, of Grandview-on-the-Hudson, to whom they had come from Vienna. None of the letters appear in Sparks’ edition of Franklin’s Works, and while all but one are included in the collections compiled by Bigelow and Smyth, there are numerous inaccuracies, some of which will be specified hereafter. ▷ 내가 출판하는 문서는 복사기(아마도 프랭클린이 발명한 회전 기계)에서 얇은 종이에 만든 프랭클린의 편지 사본이며, 한 개를 제외하고는 모두 잉크로 그의 서명이 있습니다. 저자의 손 글씨에 수정 사항이 있으며 몇 단어를 제외하고는 꽤 읽을 수 있습니다. 그것들은 내가 1905년 12월에 도드, 미드 & 컴퍼니(Dodd, Mead & Co.)에서 구입했고 이전에는 그것들이 비엔나에서 온 그랜드뷰 온 더 허드슨(Grandview-on-the-Hudson)의 G.M. 윌리엄슨(G. M. Williamson) 소유였습니다. 스파크(Sparks)의 프랭클린 작품(Franklin's Works) 에디션에는 문자가 하나도 나타나지 않으며 비글로우(Bigelow)와 스미스(Smyth)가 편집한 컬렉션에는 하나를 제외하고 모두 포함되어 있지만 많은 부정확성이 있으며 그 중 일부는 이후에 명시됩니다. ▶ Drafts of three of the letters are deposited in the University of Pennsylvania, but the existence of one letter and the whereabouts of another were unknown to the late Mr. Smyth, the editor of the last and most complete edition of Franklin’s Works, who made careful search for the original documents. Although the American owners of these copies did not allow them to be transcribed, Mr. Smyth states that he printed one letter from my copy, and he noted how the other copies differed from the drafts in the University of Pennsylvania. ▷ 이 편지들 중 세 통의 초안은 펜실베니아 대학에 보관되어 있지만, 한 통의 편지의 존재와 다른 편지의 행방은 프랭클린 웍스의 마지막이자 가장 완전한 판의 편집자인 고 스미스 씨가 원본 문서들을 신중하게 검색하는 데 알려지지 않았습니다. 비록 이 사본들의 미국인 소유자들이 그것들을 필사하는 것을 허락하지 않았지만, 스미스 씨는 그가 제 사본에서 한 통의 편지를 인쇄했다고 진술했고, 그는 다른 사본들이 펜실베니아 대학의 초안들과 어떻게 다른지에 주목했습니다. ▶ In general it may be said that, whereas Bigelow gives the text without paragraphs, capital letters or the old spelling, Smyth follows the originals more closely. In view of the historic and scientific interest of these letters, they are now printed exactly according to the press-copies. The letter dated November 30, appears never to have been printed and whereas Smyth reproduced the letter of November 21 from the University of Pennsylvania draft, this or another draft (or possibly this copy) was in the possession of the French aeronaut, Gaston Tissandier, about 1887. ▷ 일반적으로 비글로우는 단락, 대문자 또는 오래된 철자가 없는 텍스트를 제공하는 반면 스미스는 원본을 더 가깝게 따른다고 말할 수 있습니다. 이 편지의 역사적이고 과학적인 관심을 고려하여 이제 인쇄 사본에 따라 정확하게 인쇄됩니다. 11월 30일자로 된 편지는 인쇄된 적이 없는 것으로 보이며 스미스가 펜실베니아 대학교 초안에서 11월 21일자 편지를 복사한 반면, 이 초안 또는 다른 초안(또는 이 사본)은 프랑스 항공 비행사 가스통 티산디에르(Gaston Tissandier)가 소유하고 있었습니다. 1887년경. -목차(Index)- ▶ 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 999선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 ▶ 8가지 키워드로 읽는 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin, 1706~1790) 01. 미국 건국의 아버지(Founding Fathers of the United States) 02. 정치인(Politician)이자 외교관(Diplomat, 1764~1788) 03. 과학자(Scientist)이자 발명가(Inventor) 04. 벤자민 프랭클린 자서전(Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, 1791) 05. 유이(唯二)한 비대통령 미국 화폐 모델 06. 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin)을 만나는 15곳 07. 오디오북(Audio Books)으로 듣는 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin) 08. 벤자민 프랭클린(Benjamin Franklin) 어록(Quotes)(100) ▶ 벤자민 프랭클린의 최초의 풍선 1907(Benjamin Franklin and the First Balloons by Benjamin Franklin) ▶ Benjamin Franklin And The First Balloons.

Book excerpt: “Together, Rockliff and Bruno make the scientific method seem exciting, and kids interested in science and history will likely be, well, mesmerized.” — Booklist (starred review) When American inventor Benjamin Franklin arrives in Paris, he is upstaged by a compelling and enigmatic figure: Dr. Mesmer. In elaborately staged shows, Mesmer has Parisians believing he can control a magic force that changes the taste of water, cures illness, and controls thoughts! Can Ben Franklin’s approach of observing, hypothesizing, and testing get to the bottom of Mesmer’s tricks? A rip-roaring, lavishly illustrated peek into a fascinating moment in history shows the development of the scientific method — and reveals the amazing power of the human mind.

Book excerpt: **Kirkus Best Books of the Year (2013)** **Time Magazine 10 Top Nonfiction Books of 2013** **The New Republic Best Books of 2013** In this heart-lifting chronicle, Richard Holmes, author of the best-selling The Age of Wonder, follows the pioneer generation of balloon aeronauts, the daring and enigmatic men and women who risked their lives to take to the air (or fall into the sky). Why they did it, what their contemporaries thought of them, and how their flights revealed the secrets of our planet is a compelling adventure that only Holmes could tell. His accounts of the early Anglo-French balloon rivalries, the crazy firework flights of the beautiful Sophie Blanchard, the long-distance voyages of the American entrepreneur John Wise and French photographer Felix Nadar are dramatic and exhilarating. Holmes documents as well the balloons used to observe the horrors of modern battle during the Civil War (including a flight taken by George Armstrong Custer); the legendary tale of at least sixty-seven manned balloons that escaped from Paris (the first successful civilian airlift in history) during the Prussian siege of 1870-71; the high-altitude exploits of James Glaisher (who rose) seven miles above the earth without oxygen, helping to establish the new science of meteorology); and how Mary Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe, and Jules Verne felt the imaginative impact of flight and allowed it to soar in their work. A seamless fusion of history, art, science, biography, and the metaphysics of flights, Falling Upwards explores the interplay between technology and imagination. And through the strange allure of these great balloonists, it offers a masterly portrait of human endeavor, recklessness, and vision. (With 24 pages of color illustrations, and black-and-white illustrations throughout.)
