Page from The Mirror, vol. 33, no. 945 (20 April,1839).

This is considered the first photographic image published. A boxwood block was chemically prepared in the manner of Talbot's preparation of paper. Bird's photogenic drawing of ferns was laid on the block, and exposed to light, leaving its image on the surface. A wood engraver then cut the "photogenic drawing", which was then printed directly from the block in the usual manner in a rich reddish brown color that matched the color of Talbot's first salt print photograms. The facsimile was accompanied by a multi-part article, "A Treatise on Photogenic Drawing", reprinted from the Magazine of Natural History.

#I THINK THAT I FIGURED IT OUTTT #thanks to a Crossway article that showed up in my email last night and a Credo Magazine article from 2016 #that I read while eating lunch when I probably should've been studying for my earth science exam coming up!!! #'solA scriptura' does not necessarily equal 'solO scriptura'!!! #to quote the article #that's what's been bugging me!!!!! #I also read a couple articles on the need to read and study medieval and patristic theology as well as modern theology #and that made me realize that like. I thought everyone understood that. #a really big part of the last 5-8ish years for me as been digging around in church history poking at augustine and anselm #and all those guys #(though I haven't read any of them in-depth yet; was too busy killing myself in an attempt to save money for college) #so like. I kinda forgot that tons of prots/evangelicals DON'T see that as a given and actually kinda avoid it??? #like apparently a lot of them don't read the church fathers at all and also they basically avoid the creeds #which is bizarre to me bc that's a big thing that grounds me when I feel like I can't see straight (faith-wise) anymore. #the historical context and nature of my faith. #so HM YEAH THINKING ABOUT THIS #also this kinda confirms for me something that I've been really thinking about a lot lately #which is that when we try to understand concepts that come from a historical context #we should like really really really put effort into understanding the historical context that they came out of #not just grabbing the concept and running with it. whether we agree or disagree with the concept itself. #we can learn a lot about studying the ideas within their historical context bc ideas don't just spring into being within a vacuum!!! #and this is important re: the Reformation and the solas especially because those beliefs were meant as a COUNTER to things happening #in the mainline/Catholic church *at the time* #sola scriptura was meant as a COUNTER to holding papal authority over or at least as high as scriptural authority #not to say like 'oh the bible is LITERALLY THE ONLY THING WE SHOULD EVER REFERENCE EVER NO EXCEPTIONS' #history and tradition is important and necessary in all religions! otherwise you just keep doing the same work over and over again #(obviously the fathers weren't right on everything but like. it's silly to avoid them. ya know.) #delete later #gurt complains at college #<< should make that an actual tag for my rants and rambles while i'm here lol :')
