If somebody understands what that sentence of the article means, please go ahead and make it intelligible. If this isn't done soon, I'll likely comment it out. -- Cimon Avaro; on a pogostick. (talk) 00:44, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

message: ...of course results from misinterpretation of the classical idiom "Lynceus' eyes", see Lynceus (Argonaut). Should we note this in the article? --Ghirla-трёп- 18:46, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not so sure of your "of course". In Latin, the disyllabic proper name Lyn-ceus did have a trisyllabic adjective associated with it: lyn-ce-us / lyn-ce-a / lyn-ce-um, and it is possible to see this adjective, used as a substantive, in the formal Latin name of the academy: Lynceorum Academia, "the academy of those like Lynceus". But there is a common variant of the academy's name: Lyncaeorum Academia, from the Neo-Latin lyncaeus / lyncaea / lyncaeum, meaning lynx-like, and lynceus, of course, can be seen as a spelling simplification of lyncaeus. It seems to me that judging between the lynxes and Lynceus is not so easy. Rwflammang (talk) 01:35, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The name... 

message: Hi everyone,
I would like to make a point in the introduction. The Accademia dei Lincei was not "the first academy of sciences to exist in Italy" as it's stated in the article. But ONE OF the first. The very first scientific society to open not only in Italy but in the whole world was the short-lived Academia Secretorum Naturae (Accademia dei Segreti) founded in Naples in 1560 by Giambattista della Porta. I'll take the liberty and fix it. Regards In Ratio Veritas (talk) 18:32, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

message: The first academy was founded in 1603 and ceased to exist after 50 years in 1653. 150 (!) years later a new academy was founded in 1801. And this shall be the same academy? From my point of view, these are two totally different institutions. Surely it's about making the academy one of the oldest, but you can't take that seriously.
