WINNIE ILLE PU, A latin version of A.A. MILNE’S WINNIE THE POOH, translated by Alexander LENARD
Sumptibus Methueni et Sociorum Londonii, Sumptibus Duttonis, Neo-Eborici, MCMLXI
Un volume petit in-12°, reliure cartonnée bleue éditeur avec sur le 1er plat une esquisse de buste doré (celui de WINNIE en empereur romain), dos lisse portant en lettres dorées le titre du livre, le nom de l’auteur initial (MILNE) et celui des éditeurs anglais .Inutile de raconter ici l’histoire de WINIE THE POOH devenu une sorte de héros universel , soulignons simplement le fait qu’à l’humour très anglais de cette oeuvre mémorable vient s’ajouter le fait qu’un érudit de talent ait eu l’idée de la traduire en latin, ce qui représente un tour de force... Il s’agit ici de la 2ème édition, la première datant de l’année précédente (1961). Jaquette présentant une discrète zone de coloration sur le 2ème plat, sans conséquence pour la reliure. Exemplaire en TRES BON ETAT.
"MILNE, E.A. (EDWARD ARTHUR). - THE ""COSMOLOGICAL PRINCIPLE"".
Reference : 49678
(1935)
Relativity Gravitation and World-Structure.
Oxford, The Clarendon Press, 1935. Royal8vo. Orig. full cloth, gilt. With dustjacket. Jacket frayed, mainly at upper edges and on top of spine. VIII,(2),365,(1) pp., 2 plates, textillustrations. Clean and fine.
First edition of Milne's controversial work ""in which he introduced a new deductive system of theoretical physicswhich came to be called kinematic relativity. He introduced the useful term ""cosmological principle"" to signify that observers associated with galaxies in his model and in many others, including those based on general relativity, would see similar ""world pictures"". Milne went on to derive from his model many properties analogous to the laws of dynamics, gravitation, and electromagnetic theory. These developments of his theory were not generally accepted, and it is now thought that the most important effect of his work was that it led to fresh attempts to analyze the concepts of time and space-time.""

(1883)
On Seismic Experiments. Communicated by A.C. Ramsay. Received November 5, - Read December 8, 1881.
(London, Harrison and Sons, 1883). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" Year 1882, Volume 173 - 1883. - Pp. 863-883 and 1 plate. Margin of plate with small tears.Otherwise clean and fine.
First appearance of the first paper describing the invention of the seismograph to record earthquakes.""Milne studied at the Royal School of Mines and became mining engineer. He joined an Expedition to Arabia as a geologist. His real chance came in 1875, however, when he accepted an appointment as a professor of geology and mining in the Imperial College of Engineering at Tokyo. He remained in Japan for twenty years and there had a marvelous opportunity to study earthquakes, for no land is more riven with them than Japan. In 1880 he invented the seismograph...and established a chain of seismographs in Japan and elsewhere, marking the beginning of modern seismology.""(Asimow).The paper describes 8 sets of experiments set up at different stations in Japan.On Milne's initiative the Seismological Society of Japan was founded, and the emperor of Japan conferred upon him the Order of the Rising Sun.

First appearance of the formulation of the Minkowski Problem.The Minkowski problem deals with existence, uniqueness, regularity, and stability of closed convex hypersurfaces whose Gauss curvature (as a function of the outer normals) is preassigned. Major contributions to this problem were made by Minkowski in the offered paper.

Raum und Zeit. (Space and Time). Vortrag von der 80. Naturforscherversammlung zu Köln.
Leipzig, S. Hirzel, (1909). 4to. Bound with orig. printed wrappers in fine later hmorocco. (Bound by Anker Kyster Eftf. 1968). Titlelabel in leather with gilt lettering on frontcover. Offprint (Sonderabdruck) from ""Physikalische Zeitschrift"", 10. Jahrgang. No. 3. Seite 104-111, here paginated as offprint pp. 1-8 and with textfigs. Clean and fine.
First edition - in the scarce offprint-issue - of this milestone paper where Minkowski was the first to conceive that the relativity principle formulated by Lorentz and Einstein led to the abandonment of the concept of space and time as separate entities and to their replacement by a fourdimensional ""space-time"", THE SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM. In the opening passage Minkowski declared: ""Henceforth, space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fadeaway in the shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality.""The work was simultaneously published in ""Jahresberichte der Deutschen Mathematiker-Vereinigung"". Leipzig 1909, in ""Verhandlungen der Gesellschaft Deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte"". Leipzig, 1909 (a shorter version) and as here.The paper was read 20th of September 1908 at a Conference in Cologne only a few months before his death. Here ""he introduced the notion that made possible the expansion of the Relativity Theory of Einstein from its specific to its general form. The technical description of Minkowski's hypothesis is the four-dimensional Space-time continuum.... Minkowski's space-time hypothesis was in effect a restatement of Einstein's basic principle in a form that greatly enchanced its plausability and also introduced importent new developments. Hitherto natural phenomena had been thought to occur in a space of three dimensions and to flow uniformly through time. Minkowski maintained that the separation of space and time is a false conception"" thet time is itself a dimension, comparable to lenght, breadth and height: and that therefore the true conception of reality was constituted by a space-time continuum possessing these four dimensions. This strongly reinforced Einstein's objections to absolute concepts and supported his view of the relativity of events in nature."" (PMM No. 401).

Sur la Relation qui existe entre la forme cristalline et les proportions chimiques. IIe Memoire sur les Arséniates et les Phsophates. (Traduit, par l'Auteur lui-même, des Mèmoires de l'Academie royale des Sciences de Stockholm, pour l'an 1821, tome I.).
Paris, Crochard, 1821. Without wrappers. In 'Annales de Chimie et de Physique', Volume 19, Cahier 4. Titlepage to vol. 19. Pp. 337-442 a. 2 folded plates. (Entire issue offered). Mitscherlich's paper: pp. 350-419. 2 large folded engraved plates (crystalforms). A few minor brownspots.
First French edition - in the authors own form and translation - of Mitcherlich's announcment of his discovery of Isomorphism, stating that similar crystalline form reflect analogous chemical formulae, which Berzelius used in fixing the formulas of compounds. Mitcherlich was at this time an assistent to Berzelius, and the first printing of this classical paper appeared the same year in Akad. Handl., Stockholm. The paper was soon afterward printed in French (the paper offered) and English, and Berzelius discussed it in his ""Jahresbericht"", so that the work quickly became known. - Leicester & Klickstein pp. 306-08.""The statement of the law of isomorphism...marks Mitscherlich's most importent contribution to chemistry - indeed, Berzelius considered Mitscherlich's discovery to be the most significant since that of chemical proportions. Berzelius himself found Mitscherlich's work to be of great use"" he was at that time concerned with the determination of the atomic weights of the elements amd the law of isomorphism provided him with a valuable tool....Berzeluius' task was simplified by the application of Mitscherlich's law...""(DSB IX, p. 424).
