EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the frontispiece of "A Discourse concerning a New World and another Planet" by John Wilkins, published in 1640. The engraving, created by William Marshall, depicts three prominent figures of the scientific world - Galileo Galilei, Nicolaus Copernicus, and Johannes Kepler. John Wilkins himself was not only a clergyman but also a respected scientist who played a significant role in founding the Royal Society. This image is an homage to his groundbreaking work on astronomy and exploration. The three figures portrayed here symbolize the pillars of astronomical knowledge during that era. Galileo Galilei, known for his revolutionary discoveries through telescopic observations, stands tall as one of history's greatest astronomers. Nicolaus Copernicus, whose heliocentric model challenged traditional beliefs about our place in the universe, represents scientific progress and intellectual courage. Lastly, Johannes Kepler's contributions to celestial mechanics are honored as he joins this esteemed group. Through this intricate illustration filled with maps, instruments, and text discussing various aspects of astronomy - from stars to planets - we catch a glimpse into the fascinating world of scientific discovery during the 17th century. This print serves as a reminder of how these brilliant minds paved the way for future generations' understanding of our vast cosmos while inspiring us to continue exploring new worlds beyond our own.
