‎Missing Images. Eugeen van Mieghem and the Jewish Immigrants of the Red Star Line‎

‎, BAI, 2011 Paperback, 240x170mm, 160p, throughout bw and col. illustrations. English edition ISBN 9789085866145.‎

‎Van de massele Europese emigratie tussen 1850 en 1940 naar de Nieuwe Wereld zijn bijna geen beelden bewaard gebleven. Van de Joodse emigranten zijn er wel de foto's van het leven voor het vertrek (Roman Vishniac in de shetls in Oost-Europa) en bij aankomst (Jacob Riis in de Lower East Side - New York). Beelden uit de vertrekhavens vindt men enkel bij de Antwerpse kunstenaar Eugeen Van Mieghem (1875- 1930) die rond 1900 beklijvende kunstwerken maakte van de ca. 2,5 miljoen landverhuizers die met de Red Star Line vertrokken naar Amerika en Canada. Dit boek vertelt het verhaal van "The Missing Images" dat de laatste jaren internationaal herontdekt wordt. Scarcely any images have been preserved of the mass migration from Europe to the New World which occurred between 1850 and 1940. Of course, photographs do exist concerning the lives of Jewish migrants prior to their departure (Roman Vishniac in the Eastern European shetls), as well as photographs taken on the arrival of those migrants at their destination (Jacob Riis in the Lower East Side of New York). However, images from the ports of embarcation are to be found only in connection with Antwerp's artist Eugeen Van Mieghem (1875- 1930) who, around 1900, produced moving works of art portraying the roughly 2.5 million people who emigrated to the United States and Canada on the Red Star Line. This book tells the story of "The Missing Images" that have been rediscovered internationally in recent years. ‎

‎London, Macmillan, 1992 Bound, black cloth, illustrated black dustjacket, 135 x 220mm., 231pp. ISBN 0333543696.‎

‎When she was a child, Joris's missionary uncle traveled to the Belgian Congo and returned bearing gifts and telling wonderful stories. As an adult, Joris traveled to contemporary Zaire in order to see what her uncle had seen. She found a persistent memory of colonization and of the "other," finally making the colonial past and its consequences the main motifs of her book. The boat to Zaire, the urban areas and Kinshasa, the "bush" and interior--all are described in a clear personal voice, with a journey on the Zaire river to the town of Kisangani the high point of her adventure. The people she met, rather than any view of nature, motivates her writing. Because this travel book has a particular vision--it is especially concerned with the Belgian version of Africa--it will appeal to a select audience. In good condition. ‎

‎First German edition of one of the most importent papers in 1900th century physics, and the culmination of Joule's work. The offered paper is a translation of Joule's great memoir ""On the Mechanical equivalent of Heat"", published 1850, and one of the founding papers of the principle of ""The conservation of energy"", - Joule here gave the experimental proof of the conservation law.""Joule was not the first to determine the mechanical equivalent of heat. Rumford had attempted it but had come out with a value that was far too high. Mayer produced a fairly good value before Joule did, but it was Joule who was most accurate (up to his time), who backed up his figure with a large variety of careful experimental data, and who /with Thomson's help) forced the view on the world of science. He therefore gets the credit, and in his honour a unit of work, equal to 10,000,000 ergs, is called the Joule.""(Asimov). - Dibner, Heralds of Science No.158 (the 1843 paper).Joule's first measurement of the mechanical equivalent of heat was published...in 1843. It was made by comparing the heat generated by the current of a magnetoelectric machine with the excess of work which was used in turning the machine when the circuit was closed above that used when it was open....In the following papers in which the mechanical equivalent was measured in different ways we find the same elaborate description of the experiments and a brief statement of the final results. This is particularly true of the GREAT MEMOIR OF 1850 IN WHICH JOULE'S WORK CULMINATED. (Magie ""Source Book in Physics"" p. 203).The volume contains further STOKES, G.G.: ""Ueber die Veränderung der Brechbarkeit des Lichts."" Pp. 177-345 in first German edition.‎

‎First appearance of Joule's paper in which he describes his importent improvement of the Steam-Engine, using the principles of the first law of thermodynamics which he himself helped to establish.""In addition, numerous other researches stand to Joules credit -- the work done in compressing gases and the thermal changes they undergo when forced under pressure through small apertures (with Lord Kelvin), the change of volume on solution, the change of temperature produced by the longitudinal extension and compression of solids, etc. It was during the experiments involved by the first of these inquiries that Joule was incidentally led to appreciate the value of surface condensation in increasing the efficiency of the steam engine. A new form of condenser was tested on the small engine employed, and the results it yielded formed the starting-point of a series of investigations which were aided by a special grant from the Royal Society, and were described in an elaborate memoir presented to it on the 13th of December 1860 (the paper offered). His results, according to Kelvin, led directly and speedily to the present practical method of surface-condensation, one of the most important improvements of the steam engine, especially for marine use, since the days of James Watt. Joule died at Sale on the 11th of October 1889.""(NNDB)‎

‎First apperance of the paper in which Joule presented his last and most exact measurement of ""THE MECHANICAL EQUIVALENT OF HEAT"" by using his famous experimental design, the Paddle-wheel experiment, the most direct demonstration of the heat-mechanical-work equivalence. - He reported his final determinations of the equivalent to the French Academy of Sciences, and presented this learned body with the iron paddle-wheel calorimeter he had used in the case of mercury, thus establishing that heat is a form of energy.Mayer, in his paper, claimed that he was the first to evaluate the mechanical equivalent, and thus claiming priority to the importent conservation law, the first law of thermodynamics and the conservation of energy.Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1847 P.‎
