Although introduced by Pasteur only for the case of racemic acid, this new method clearly had wider applicability and was soon used to separate the left- and right-handed components in other 'racemic substances', Darmstädter. 543: The discovery of Chinicin was announced earlier in 1853 and is fully elaborated upon here.

Beverland was a lawyer and a rich and extremely gifted man of letters, but due to his writings gained a bad reputation and fled to England. His 'Peccatum originale' (1678, reprinted under his own name in 1679) posed that man's original fall from grace solely originated from Adam and Eve's ''conversatio carnalis". Beverland was forced to retract these views and was fined 100 silver dukatons. Beverland did not mend his ways.: Brunet vol. I, p. 837: Graesse vol. I, p. 357: Ebert, 2076: Gay-Lemmonier vol. I, 819: Bilderlexicon vol. III, 126: '... gelehrten Obszönitäten, schlüpfrigen Büchern und wollüstigen Bildern.': Beverland was famous for his libertinism, which caused him lots of trouble.
