The work concludes with the treatise "De mensuris and ponderibus sinensium epistola" by the famous English orientalist Thomas Hyde (1636-1703) who was a professor of Hebrew at Queen's College in Oxford and curator-in-chief of the Bodleian Library. Edward Bernard, philologist and English scholar (1638-1697), very versed in ancient and eastern languages, in the physical and mathematical sciences, is the author of many books. He was e.a. professor of astronomy at the University of Oxford. - Visit our website for additional images and information.
