In 1626, a Cambridge fishwife sliced open a cod, only to find a gelatinous, half-dissolved manuscript inside. It was published the next year under the name "Vox Piscis or, the Bookfish." At this point, why not get your news from inside a dead fish? #earlymodern #bookfish archive.org/details/bim_...

One of my favourite items in the @morganlibrary exhibition must be this image in The Book of Marvels MS M.461 showing the harvest of cinnamon believed to come from the nests of the mythical cinnamologus birds of Arabia.
