Über diesen Titel
Today we unlock a small laboratory in Paris where the air is weighed as carefully as gold and names are chosen with the seriousness of treaties. On a bench sit a water‑sealed gasometer, a balance so sensitive that breathing on its pans could ruin an afternoon, glass retorts with long swan necks, a furnace that keeps its temper because the person who tends it keeps his. In this room a familiar world of elements will be sorted again, and a rumor with a pleasing name will be weighed and found wanting. The man is Antoine‑Laurent Lavoisier. He will show that air is not a single thing, that water is not an element, that burning is not a spirit fleeing but a combination proceeding, and that chemistry is not kitchen prestidigitation but an exact craft done under the supervision of numbers. He will make a language to keep what he has made. He will tie law to flame, and then politics will cut the cord at the neck. His head will fall in a square; his sentences will keep working in laboratories he never saw.
