‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- "Pluecker's mathematical accomplishments during this second period (in 1864, when he returned to his work in geometry) were published in Neue geometrie des raumes... which appeared in 1868. Plucker's death prevented him from completing the second part of this work, but Felix Klein, who had served as Plucker's physical assistant from 1866 to 1868, undertook the task. Plucker had indicated his plans to Klein in numerous conversations. These conversations served also as a source for Plucker's ideas in Neue Geometrie in which he attempted to base space geometry upon the self-dual straight line as element, rather than upon the point or in dual manner upon the plane as element. He thus created the field of line geometry, which until the twentieth century was the subject of numerous researches...". (DSB XI p. 46). Cajori pp. 309/311 - Honeyman N°2503**4206/ARB1‎
