 1. Atti (Mia Meale Accademia dei Lincei. Serie 2, vols. 1, 2, 

 3. 4to, 1873-1876. Roma, 1875, 1876.— The "Accademia del 

 Lincei " held its first meeting near the beginning of the seven- 

 teenth century, and hence it is the oldest of existing scientific 

 academies,* It has had, however, an intermittent existence, owing 

 to the stifling conditions about it. 



Founded by Federico Cesi, of the Roman nobility, m 1603, 

 avowedly to promote the progress of truth, its members, and es- 

 peciallv their leader, encountered almost immediate persecution ; 

 and in 1606 they were forced to suspend their sessions in order to 

 escape greater evils. The Academy was at work again m 1609, 

 and soon after, Galileo (then 45 years old), Baptista Porta and 

 Colonna were among its members. The Academy adopted as its 

 insignia the figure of a lynx— the piercing sight attributed from 

 ;eded in Italy, by t 

 Baptista r ■ ■ ' 

 T Pope Paul III.
