Spiegelbuch / Mirror Book

Stations-ID: D048

Instructions:

Put the toy blocks into the mirror book and change the angle by adjusting the relative position of the mirrors.

• Look into the Mirror Book. At which angle must the two mirrors be so you can see your face properly?
• Open the book to a right angle and put the toy blocks into it. How many mirror images can you see?
• Now close the book slowly; at which angles can you see complete mirror images?

Since ancient times, “mirror” (lat. speculum) has been a term for a collection of texts used for orientation and reflection of one’s own life circumstances.  Well known is the “Sachsenspiegel”, for example, in which Eike von Repgow first recorded the legal knowledge of the Middle Ages in writing.
