The Challenge of Rendering Classical Concepts and Terminology in English

In the year after crowley wrote that pamphlet against sedition, another english scholar was faced with a challenge of explaining complicated greek and latin concepts to english readers for the first time. The work i am referring to was a geometry book composed by a welsh mathematician named robert record. In most cases, record decided to render those classical geometry concepts in english. And he did that by coining brand new terms based on english ts. He probably didn't realize it at the time, but he was taking an approach that many other english writers would take over the next half century or so.
