Pththya-lyi posted:Calling it now: it's only going to talk about "gender" in terms of grammatical categories. "Gender" as a socially-constructed role distinct from biological sex was hardly ever talked about until the 1970s. Yah I'll bet you're right

Thanks for posting my request and thanks for this thread. It's very interesting and a fascinating view into how scolars roughly a 100 years ago saw the world,

It's interesting that today used to be hyphenated as to-day. What do they say about Mussolini?

Thanks for posting the art one, that really interested me - it was juuuust about at the very early stages of modern art, so it was interesting to see it be all "Art is representing stuff, ffs, except there are SOME IDIOT UPSTARTS".

I'm feeling like The Time Machine, if that library stuff from the new movie was actually pulled from the book, so: Time Machine and Time Travel entries, please. (additional nerdy queries: Charles Babbage, Program, Algorithm, Semiconductor), edit for clarity :p

Thanks for sharing, vortmax. I’m going to dump a bunch of topics here in roughly the order I’m interested in them, but do whatever you want with them. Galaxies other than our own had been discovered in the last decade. The entries on “nebula” and “Hubble, Edwin” might also be interesting. The second Ku Klux Klan was active in 1935. How will the encyclopædia treat it? Tetraetyhyllead was a wonder chemical. Or was it? On a has related note, “radium” has only recently fallen from the limelight. Pandas won’t be seen by the public till Ruth Harkness brings Su Lin to America in 1936. Surely this species gets an illustration. The New Deal might be a good lookup, might not. We’re used to see it as a monolith in the rearview mirror, but in 1935, it was very much in flux. The Hoover Dam, then known as Boulder Dam was under construction at the time. It was kind of a big deal. Tesla, Nikola was living as a beggar. I suspect they saw him differently in 1935 than we do today.

Hazo posted:Ooh do this! It’ll still be a couple of years (1938) before Latimer found the first specimen. That's exactly what I was thinking. Has the article on just generic paleontology been posted yet? I imagine a lot of semi-recent major scientific discoveries we take for granted (like plate tectonics) aren't in there. I used to have a 30-volume (or so) Encyclopedia Americana from 1955 and it was fun to look through. I'm not sure what happened to it. It might still be in my parents' garage.

This is great. The Hitler one... how is it never taught anymore that he tried a failed coup. That's a pretty big deal in terms of rise to power/foreshadowing the dictatorship.

Uh. What? That's pretty much always taught. It's the famous beer hall putsch, it's why he ended up in prison and wrote Mein Kampf.

Freud produced a whole system of magic based on the concept of which kind of female orgasms were good or evil.
