Book Description
Excerpt from Notes on the Calendar, and the Almanac, 1914 Even at the present day a bunch of almanacs may be found in many a farmer's kitchen, suspended from a peg or nail in the wall near the fireplace. At the beginning of a year the new almanac is sure to be secured and is religiously preserved by being sewn to its predecessors, and not infrequently this bunch of almanacs constitutes the family library. It is to emphasize these and other reasons for the preservation of calendars and almanacs, and to give a compendious history of them that these notes have been prepared. Of calendars, or orderly lists of persons, things, and events, there are many kinds: for instance, a calendar of state papers; a calendar of bills presented in a legislative assembly; a calendar of causes arranged for trial in court. The Calendar which we are to consider is defined by Webster as "an orderly arrangement of the divisions of time, adapted to the purposes of civil life, as years, months, weeks, and days; a register of the year with its divisions." It refers to time in general and to the tables which have been invented to register its progress. It may refer to a single year, or it may refer to the general scheme adopted by astronomers by which tune may be measured without reference to any particular year. It is a general table of the days and months of a period of time called a year from which may be deduced the days and months of any particular year. It is a scheme for the division of time, and changes in this scheme can be made only by those appointed by the government for that purpose. Thus we have the Egyptian, Chinese, Jewish, Roman, Gregorian and Aztec calendars, the names of which sufficiently indicate their character and denote that they are national modes of registering the course of time by the season's progress.
