		The question of the date at which these extracts were made is therefore all important.
		It is known that a copy of Newton's manuscript had been sent to Tschirnhausen in May, 1675, and as in that year he and Leibniz were engaged together on a piece of work, it is not impossible that these extracts were made then.
		On the other hand it may be supposed that Leibniz made the extracts from the printed copy in or after 1704.

		This reception somewhat alarmed Spinoza, who, hearing in the following year (1671) that a Dutch translation was contemplated, urged his friends to prevent its appearance.
		Through von Tschirnhausen, Spinoza came into correspondence with Leibnitz, then (1672) in Paris.
		He appears to have had some suspicions of Leibnitz's trustworthiness, and it was not till four years later, when the brilliant young diplomat visited him at The Hague, that Spinoza exposed his full mind to Leibnitz and produced that epoch-making effect upon the latter which dominated European thought in the eighteenth century.

		Medici porcelain (see below) is often credited as being the first porcelain produced in Europe, but this was short lived and was of a soft paste.
		The collaboration of Johann Friedrich Bottger and Ehrenfried Walther von Tschirnhausen, under the aegis of Augustus the Strong, resulted in the discovery of proper clay and thus the first hard paste porcelain in Europe in Saxony in 1709, and the Royal Saxon Porcelain Manufacture was opened at Meissen in 1710.
		Elsewhere in Europe, the Austrians acquired the hard paste formula in 1719, and a several French faience factories began experimenting with porcelain formulas.
