Encyclopaedias

Diese von Fritz Verdenhalven wesentlich vermehrte und völlig überarbeitete 2. Auflage bringt eine umfassende Übersicht zu den alten Meß- und Währungssystemen. Berücksichtigt ist das deutsche Sprachgebiet mit seiner bunten Vielfalt an Kleinstaaten, die noch zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts blühten. Überall wurden nicht nur traditionelle Maß- und Gewichtseinheiten sondern auch Währungen gepflegt, deren Größe, Gewicht und Wert aber von Land zu Land variieren konnten. Daraus sind leicht die Schwierigkeiten zu erkennen, mit denen Kaufleute und Händler beim Waren- und Geldverkehr über die Grenzen hinweg konfrontiert waren. Das Bemühen einiger Landesherren, die Maßsysteme für ihr Gebiet zu vereinheitlichen, brachte nur wenig Erleichterung für den Handel. Zum 1. Januar 1872 wurde endlich das Metrische System eingeführt, das nun eine grundlegende und einheitliche Bestimmung der Maße und Gewichte brachte.Dieses Buch ist somit eine unverzichtbare Hilfestellung für all jene, denen in Urkunden, Kaufverträgen oder Korrespondenzen aus früherer Zeit Angaben zu Maßen, Gewichten und Währungen begegnen. Ihre Bedeutungen sind in dieser Schrift sorgfältig aufgeschlüsselt.<BR>
