原文:
Medieval Europe gave new importance to reliable time. The Catholic Church had
its seven daily prayers, one of which was at night, requiring an alarm
arrangement to waken monks before dawn. And then the new cities and towns,
squeezed by their walls, had to know and order time in order to organize
collective activity and ration space. They set a time to go to sleep,to open
the market ,to close the market ,to leave work ,and finally a time to put out
fires and to go to sleep. All this was compatible with older devices so long
as there was only one authoritative timekeeper; but with urban growth and the
multiplication of time signals, discrepancy brought discord and strife.
Society needed a more dependable instrument of time measurement and found it
in the mechanical clock.
