"When Einstein realized, 'Dear me, this universe with its wonders all adds up to E=mc2?,' he did not stop to think whether this concept would sell better set in Futura or Antikva." - Kari Piippo

    Then again, at the time of Einstein's discovery, dissertations were handwritten, or at best, typed on a typewriter.

    Which font to best use to sell the discovery (i.e. how to visually appeal to the reader in the most effective way) would have been the typesetter's job.

    And, let's face it, back in the day any publication in German would have been typeset in some Fraktur (blackletter) font.

    @SomeNone Yes, I said that.
    While I read the full post, I stopped paying attention after "all adds up".

    @c3r38r170 Yes you did but in my mind it sounded like a question seeking affirmation.
