First appearance of these 5 important papers in which Stark describes his researches on the effects of the electrical field on the spectral lines of hydrogen, thus discovering the splitting of the spectral lines, THE STARK-EFFECT. This effect was incorporated into quantum mexhanics by Paul Epstein in 1916, and it was shown to be consistent with wave mechanics by Schrödinger in 1926. In 1919 Stark was awarded the Nobel Prize for physics for his discovery of the Doppler effect in canal rays and of the splitting of spectral lines inan electric field (the papers offered). ""At the beginning of July 1913, several months before Stark’s discovery, Niels Bohr published his concept of a quantum-mechanical model of the atom. This provided, in principle, the possibility of understanding the reason for the Stark effect, which the classical theory was powerless to explain. Stark therefore had an opportunity to be doubly gratified, having also been one of the first, after Max Planck and Einstein, to stress the “fundamental significance” of Planck’s elementary law (since 1907). which he had championed in many polemical discussions. Yet, almost incomprehensibly, Stark denied himself the satisfaction of seeing his own experiments confirm a theory for which he had helped prepare the way conceptually, even if he had not directly participated in its creation. Apparently he always had to oppose the accepted point of view. Thus, as Bohr’s theory continued to gain adherents in 1914-1916."" (DSB)

In ""Annales de Chimie et de Physique"", 4ieme Series - Tome IX. 528 pp., 2 folded plates. (The entire volume offered). Stas' paper: pp. 215-243. Internally clean and fine.
First French printing of Stas's importent (first) paper in which he demonstrates the incommensurability of the atomic weights, proving that atomic weights are not whole numbers or multiples of halv or a quarter of the atomic weight of hydrogen.""Stas demonstrated that the values of the atomic weights he had determined were neither multiples of unity, nor of one half, as Marignac believed, nor of one quarter, as Dumas maintained. This publication led Marignac to doubt the universality of the law of definite proportions. In three papers collectively entitled ""Nouvelles recherches sur les lois des proportions chimiques, sur les poids atomiques et leurs rapports mutuels"" (1865), Stas presented the results of an extensive series of experiments devoted to the new demonstration. By painstaking and accurate measurements he established that atomic weights were incommensurable, thereby disproving the facile conclusion that discrepancies with whole-number values were due merely to experimental errors. Prout’s hypothesis was thus discredited.""(DSB).

"STEENSTRUP, JOHANNES JAPETUS SMITH. - THE DISCOVERY OF ""ALTERNATION OF GENERATIONS''.

(1842)
Kjöbenhavn, Bianco Luno, 1842 a. 1845. 4to. Bound in one contemp. halfcalf, spine gilt. A small tear to backhinge at lower compartment of spine. IV,76 pp. and 3 double-page, folded lithographed plates with many figs. + XIV,88 pp. and 2 double-apge lithographed plates with many figs. Light browning to the last leaves of the second work.
The scarce first edition of the work in which Steenstrup describes his discovery of the principle of 'ALTERNATION OF GENERATIONS'', sexual and asexual in plants and animals. ""(Steenstrup) showed that certain animals produce offspring which never resemble them but which, on the other hand, bring forth progeny which return in form and nature to their grandparents or more distant ancestors."" (Garrison & Morton No 217). A German translation was published the same year, and an English in 1845. Norman 2009 (German translation). ""The second major publication - (the first dealing with geology) - of 1842 was ""Om Forplantning og Udvikling gjennem vexlende Generationsrækker..."", (the work offered), Steenstrup's comprehensive presentation of the form of reproduction that he called 'alternation of generations', that is, the alternation of asexual and sexual reproduction, or metagenesis. This phenomenon had previously been described by Chamisso, but Steenstrup included a greater number of observations, based on a significantly wider range of subjects, and provided an importent chapter on its meaning. Steenstrup's growing reputation, won him an appointment as professor of zoology at the University of Copenhagen, where he tought from 1846 until 1885.""(DSB XII, p. 9).

Today, we take it for granted that we can flyanywhere in the world, but the modest beginnings of international air travel are not even a century old. The Junkers F 13, introduced in 1919, could seat only four passengers, but this plane was the mother of global commercial flight and was usedon five continents. It was the first all-metaaircraft, which enabled it to shatter many records for both altitude and distance flown until 1932. Despite these achievements, this pioneering plane has been overshadowed by its famous successor, the JU 52

Orné d'un frontispice gravé figurant la maison de la Fornarina à la porte Sellimiana dans le Trastevere (probablement de la main de Constantin).Decorated with an engraved frontispiece representing the house of the Fornarina at the Sellimiana gate in the Trastevere (probably by the hand of Constantin). Edition originale. C'est Paul Arbelet, qui en 1923, attribue la paternité de ce texte à Stendhal. Après un gros travail de recherche, dû à Sandra Teroni et Hélène de Jacquelot, il est permis de savoir quelle est la part prise par Stendhal dans cet ouvrage qui est à la fois une monographie sur Raphaël et un manuel d'apprentissage à la vision du tableau. Travail de symbiose, Stendhal se greffe sur l'écriture de Constantin. Rédigées entre 1835 et 1837, les dix-sept notices sur les tableaux que le peintre sur porcelaine avait copié afin de faire des émaux, seront le début du texte. Puis Stendhal encouragera son ami à élargir son propos, en évoquant les palais, les églises de Rome, et les plus beaux tableaux. C'est lui qui propose le titre; c'est encore Stendhal qui se livre à un important travail de rédaction et de révision — il réécrit parfois complètement et rédige des passages voire des chapitres entiers. Il veille à la mise au net, à la présentation typographique, aux titres courants, mais aussi à l’articulation du texte (il s’est chargé de répartir la matière en chapitres), texte qu’il complète sur épreuve et jusqu’au stade du manuscrit final, car c’est encore lui qui signe les « bons à tirer ». C'est donc une véritable œuvre à quatre mains. Très bel exemplaire, malgré un dos passé. Ex-libris de Charles Gautier. V. Lieber, Ex-libris genevois, n°203; voir l'édition du texte par S. Teroni et H. de Jacquelot aux éditions Beaux-Arts de Paris.First edition. It was Paul Arbelet, who in 1923 attributed the authorship of this text to Stendhal. After a great research work, due to Sandra Teroni and Hélène de Jacquelot, it is possible to know what part Stendhal plays in this work which is both a monograph on Raphael and a learning manual to read the paintings. Work of symbiosis, Stendhal is added on the writing of Constantin. Written between 1835 and 1837, the seventeen explanatory leaflets on the paintings that the painter on porcelain had copied in order to make enamels, will be the beginning of the text. Then Stendhal will encourage his friend to broaden his words, by evoking the palaces, the churches of Rome, and the most beautiful paintings. It is him who proposes the title; it is still Stendhal who makes an important work of writing and revision - he sometimes rewrites completely and writes passages or even entire chapters. He keeps a watchful eye on set up of printing page,on the typographical presentation, to the running titles, but also to the lining sentence of the text (he was responsible for dividing the material into chapters), text which he completes on proof sheet and until the final manuscript, because it is still him who signs the "ready for press". It is a real work with four hands. Very nice copy.

Belevenissen op de express Paris-Amsterdam, een rondreis door het zonnige Itali , de bedevaart naar Lourdes of een ontdekkingstocht naar de mooiste plekjes in eigen land. Dit boek bundelt de reisherinneringen van Ernest Claes en zijn vrouw, de schrijfster Stephanie Vetter. Reisverhalen, zo pittig en smakelijk verteld dat je ze kunt lezen als een boeiende roman. In deze verhalen leer je de mens achter auteur Ernest Claes beter kennen, maar wordt ook het beeld geschetst van de Vlaming-met-al-zijn-eigenaardigheden, die zichzelf blijft waar hij ook vertoeft, en die ons weet mee te slepen alsof we er zelf bij waren. Zowel korte anekdoten en uitgebreide reisverslagen komen aan bod. Stuk voor stuk levendig, spontaan en echt. Een van humor tintelend relaas van reiservaringen, gekruid met weemoed en levensernst.
