英语词汇telescope的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

telescope. The great Galileo did not at first use the word tele- scope for the famous instrument that he invented, calling it in- stead a perspicillum and sometimes an organum, or instrumen- tum, or occidale. In about 1610, a rival and lesser claimant to the discovery, Prince Cesi, head of the Italian Academy, named the instrument the telescope, from the Greek word for “far see- ing.” Only then did Galileo employ the word, and he, in fact, is the first person known to record telescope, in a letter of Septem- ber 1, 1611. See microscope.
