‎First edition of the first explicit statement of Einstein's energy-mass equation E=mc2.Nearly all descriptions of Einstein's scientific work state that the mass-energy equivalence E=mc2 was first formulated in Einstein's 1907 review paper 'Über das Relativitätsprinzip und die aus demselben gezogenen.' published in 'Jahrbuch der Radioaktivität und Elektronik' (see Weil no. 21 and Dictionary of Scientific Biography, vol. 4 pp.323 for examples). However, in his paper 'Über die von Relativitätsprincip geforderte Trägheit der Energie' [the offered paper] which predates the former mentioned by six months, Einstein gave a clear statement of the mass-energy equivalence E=mc2. See Lanczos: The Einstein Decade, pp.149-150 and 153 as well as Volume 2 of 'The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein' pp. 428.Einstein's first paper regarding the relation E=mc2 is his fourth 1905 paper, 'Ist die Trägheit eines Körpers von seinem Energieinhalt abhängig?'. In this short paper Einstein showed that a body releasing the energy E in the form of radiation will have its mass decreased by E/c2, and concluded that the mass of a body is a measure of its energy content, e.g., that all energy has mass. The next time Einstein returns to the subject is in his 1906 paper 'Das Prinzip von der Erhaltung der Schwerpunkts Bewegung und die Trägheit der Energie.'. Here Einstein concluded that one must either ascribe the inertial mass E/c2 to any form of energy E or else give up the fundamental law mechanics regarding conservation of the motion of the center of gravity. Then finally in the 1907 paper 'Über die von Relativitätsprincip geforderte Trägheit der Energie.' [the offered paper] Einstein makes the decisive step of assuming that all mass has energy. On page 382 Einstein considers the total energy of a moving mass point as the sum of its kinetic energy and its rest energy. In classical mechanics it is most convenient to set the second term to zero but in relativistic mechanics one obtains the simplest expression by setting the rest energy equal to mc2. Einstein then continues to show that this stipulation cannot lead to a contradiction in any relativistic argument. In a footnote on page 382 Einstein states for the first time the equation E=mc2 and mentions that this equation is the expression of the principle of the equivalence of mass and energy - see Volume 2 of 'The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein' pp. 428.The volume contains another paper by Einstein ""Bemerkungen zu der Notiz von Hrn.

Are these two statements really separate? If the field equations were linear, they indeed would be. They are not linear, however, and Einstein showed (in the papers offered) that if matter is represented by a point singularity of the metric field, these singularities are located on world lines that are geodesics of space-time, provided its metric satisfies the equation of general relativity.""(DSB).Weil: 202 a. 295 (both with an asterix denoting a major paper). - Boni: 236 a. 236.1.‎

‎Illuminated Crusader Histories for Philip the Good of Burgundy,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2012 Hardback, 312 p., 38 b/w ill. + 38 colour ill., 190 x 250 mm. ISBN 9782503518046.‎

‎Philip the Good, duke of Burgundy from 1419 to 1467, distinguished himself as a patron of illuminated histories and historical romances, and as host of the most lavish entertainment of the middle ages. The Banquet of the Pheasant was a response to the Fall of Constantinople, and it was staged to enlist support for the coming crusade. Two splendid tributes to heroic crusaders from the duke's family tree, commissioned in the 1450s, provide an opportunity to bring these elements of his reputation - bibliophile and would-be crusader--under the same lens. Our perception of the Charlemagne Chronicle in Brussels (BR, MS 9066-68) and the Jerusalem Chronicle in Vienna (ONB, Cod. 2533) is enhanced when we consider other examples of "crusade literature" and remember the perennial goal of recovering Jerusalem. This study of the visual and literary projects that supported Philip's efforts to launch a crusade, long after the days of the "classic" crusades, sets these manuscripts in the context of his court's interest in history writing and updated historical romances, and against the background of the French crusading tradition and the Burgundian incarnation that succeeded it.

‎Paintings, sculpture, and classical antiquities are the most valuable resources of any museum, and are the first objects to be published in each museum''s own collection catalogue or online inventory. Collection catalogues, however, have customarily included only a small sample of the riches to be found in Midwestern collections of master drawings. This volume of sixteenth-century drawings has been largely the work of Burton L. Dunbar (University of Missouri-Kansas City), director of the project and a specialist in the arts of northern Europe, and Edward J. Olszewski (Case Western Reserve University), co-editor for the series, a well-known authority on drawings of the Italian Renaissance. This volume covers the sixteenth century, including artists born as a rule between 1480 and 1580, with the exception of Giovanni Baglione (ca. 1573-1644) and the Carracci. This study represents a gathering of drawings from forty institutions between Ohio and Oklahoma based on a census of seventy-five museums and art centers. Jacob Burckhardt?s contention that the Renaissance was, in many respects, an age of paganism is readily belied here by the 471 Italian drawings, the great majority of which are religious subjects. Antiquity provided a veneer beneath which sixteenth century artists could cloak their Christianity to make it seem fresh, reminding believers of the origins of their faith, and reviving the purity of Christian doctrine in its early years. It is no surprise, then, to find numerous drawings of antiquities, and mythologies among the many subjects. A corpus this large can be representative in many ways, offering a cross-section of media, subjects, drawing types, and collectors. Of the 471 Italian drawings scattered across Midwestern America, here we reassemble many that were at one time in one or more prominent collections. Every drawing was examined for the following information: Artist, place of birth and death with dates, biography, title of drawing, date of drawing, dimensions in mm (and in inches), media, institutional credit line, accession number, technical condition, inscriptions, collectors? marks, watermark, provenance, exhibitions, bibliography, comments.

‎Blocks on the Road to Instructional Design Prescriptions. A Methodology for I.D.-Research Exemplified. ‎

‎Leuven, Universitaire Pers, 1995 Paperback, English, original editor's jacket, 16x24 cm., xii-274 pp. ISBN 9789061867081.‎

‎ Studia Paedagogica : 8. The development of instructional design as a linking science and, more specifically, the formulation of theoretically sound, empirically valid, and applicable prescriptions may contribute to bridge the gap between theory and practice. In this study, a heuristic approach is proposed that conceptualizes the steps involved in prescriptive research. It is assumed that prescriptions are tight to learning or cognitive tasks, which represent instructional problems in a specific instructional setting. Furthermore, it is argued that prescriptions are to be embedded in an overarching framework. This framework determines the meaning of the prescriptions, restricts their applicability, and may guarantee their mutual compatibility. I.D.-models have been argued to offer such frameworks. The first step of the proposed approach, then, consists of the construction of an I.D.-model. In a second step, this model is elaborated in order to tune it to the learning or cognitive tasks for which prescriptions will be formulated. An analysis of both the available research embedded in the descriptive knowledge base and the specifications of the referent system, results in a number of problem detection- and prediction-rules. These rules provide indications on problems learners may encounter in their efforts to execute the selected task, or link learner characteristics and instructional interventions to learning outcomes. The last step consists of the validation of the prespecified rules in an ecological setting. This empirical validation may lead to prescriptions which applicability is restricted to the settings specified in the referent system. The approach above is followed as an exemplar of prescriptive I.D.-research. A definition of instructional design is provided and five structural components (descriptive knowledge base, referent system, design parameters, design procedures, and design/development processes) of I.D.-models are identified. An analysis of the influence of cognitive research outcomes on instructional design and the elaboration of the approach for prescriptive instructional design research (Chapter 1), precedes the construction of a cognitive oriented instructional design model (C.I.D.-model). The model is completed by outlining design/development processes and the features of some design procedures (Chapter 2). The model gets further elaborated by taking the referent system more fully into account and specifying the model toward a specific cognitive task: determining importance of information-elements in printed instructional materials (Chapter 3). Considering the outcomes of descriptive research about the influence of both learner and text characteristics on both learning from text and text comprehension, an empirical validation study is presented (Chapter 4). Arguing that descriptive research outcomes cannot be directly transformed into prescriptions, but can help to detect problems students eperience and may suggest possible solutions, problem detection- and prediction-rules are identified. Application of problem detection- and prediction-rules leads to the implementation of three types of interventions or support devices: printing important information bold, integrating important information elements in summaries, and restructuring the text. Results (Chapter 5) indicate that (1) overall, students determine importance by applying a 'safety'-strategy; (2) interventions do not lead to improved performance on determining importance or learning outcomes tests, and (3) content prior knowledge influences performance on learning outcomes tests. Overall, no valid prescriptions can be formulated. The overall non-significant results may be due to a variety of reasons. Retrospective interviews suggest that the results may be explained by the non-use or inappropriate function-attribution of instructional interventions by students. This study does not result in valid prescriptions. In addition, questions are to be raised about the C.I.D.-model and, more specifically, the selection of learner-related design parameters. However, these conclusions pertain only to the hypothesis-testing part of the study and do not consider contributions made with regard to the development of cognitive instructional design, and, more methodologically, the explorative aspects of this prescriptive study. ‎

‎Lives and Afterlives. The Hiberno-Latin Patrician Tradition, 650?1100‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 179 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:6 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503606040.‎

‎Summary Saint Patrick is a central figure in the medieval Irish Church. As the converter saint he was a central anchor through which Irish people came to understand their complicated religious past as well as their new place in the wider Christian world. This study considers some of the earliest and most influential writings focused on Saint Patrick, and asks how successive generations forged, sustained and redirected aspects of the saint's persona in order to suit their specific religious and political needs. In this book Elizabeth Dawson, for the first time, treats the Hiberno-Latin vitae of Patrick as a body of connected texts. Seminal questions about the corpus are addressed, such as who wrote the Lives and why? What do the works tell us about the communities that venerated and celebrated the saint? And what impact did these Lives have on the success and endurance of the saint's cult? Challenging the perception that Patrick's legend was created and sustained almost exclusively by the monastic community at Armagh, she demonstrates that the Patrick who emerges from the Lives is a varied and malleable saint with whom multiple communities engaged.

‎TREATISE ON HANNIBAL'S PASSAGE OF THE ALPS, IN WHICH HIS ROUTE IS TRACED OVER THE LITTLE MONT CENIS,‎

‎Cambridge/ London, Deighton/ John W. Parker, 1853 Bound, cloth, gold impression on back, fold out landmap as frontispice, original title page, 140 x 230mm., 188pp., fold out landmap at the end of the book, 4 landscape engravings ( 1 fold out too ).‎

‎In this translation the exact meaning of Polybius has been preserved as far as possible. There is some light foxing to the first and the last pages, which is not strange considering the age of the book. Otherwise in very good condition.‎
