Pherotee La Croix's "Universal Relation of Africa" is a famous 17th-century history of Africa. La Croix was a professor of geography in Lyon whose work on Africa became a lasting authority of African geography and history. However, much of La Croix's "Afrique" was heavily inspired by Dutch author Olfert Dapper's "Description of Africa".
Even still, La Croix's work is notable for the exquisite full-page and folding engravings as well as descriptions of some of the greatest mysteries of Africa including a section on Egyptian pyramids, the Sphinx, and mummies! Other topics include voyages to the Barbary coast, Tunisia, Algiers, and Morocco.

Tommaso Bosio (or Bozio) was an early 16th-century Italian Catholic inquisitor bishop known for his service in Malta. Little is known of his life outside of Malta, however, Bosio wrote a book entitled "De Signis ecclesiae dei', or 'Signs of the Church of God'. While at first glance, this book appears to be like many others of its kind – a description of the history of the catholic church, and it is. However, this book, unlike any other, contains a highly controversial tale on the life, rather, death of Martin Luther.
Bozio's "De Signis ecclesiae" is the first published account, whether accurate or not, to describe Martin Luther's suicide by hanging. According to Bozio, a servant of Luther found Luther hanged in a tree from a rope. Curiously, it is widely accepted that the cause of Luther's death remains a mystery, but some scholars believe suicide by hanging was the cause. Bozio's account is one of the first, if the… Read More

Johann Kunckel was a 17th-century German chemist and alchemist known for his apothecary dispensaries chemical experiments. While living and working in Brandenburg, Kunckel worked in a glass making laboratory which led him to the discovery of dying glass through uses of phosphorus, gold salts, and tin chloride. His studies in glass making prompted a treatise on the subject, a treatise which proved to be one of the best 17th-century works on glass making! "Ars Vitraria Experimentalis" includes countless recipes on making different types of glass with commentary on glazes, glass inventions, and glass furnaces.
