| Summary | "La Cryptographie, ou, l'art d'écrire en chiffres" by P. L. Jacob is a scientific publication written in the mid-19th century. This work delves into the intricate world of cryptography, exploring both its historical origins and various methods developed over time for encoding secret messages. The book covers a wide range of cryptographic techniques used from antiquity to the modern era. At the start of the text, the author introduces the concept of cryptography and its various applications as a means of concealing written communications from prying eyes. The opening chapter outlines historical methods utilized for secret writing, referencing ancient examples such as the clever techniques attributed to figures like Herodotus and the Lacédémonians using devices like the scytale. It sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of cryptographic methods across different societies and epochs, establishing a foundation for further discussion on the complex art of secret writing that formed a significant part of communication in both personal and political contexts.
