‎Vorläufige Anzeige des Gesetzes, nach welchem Metalle die Contaktelectricität leiten"‎

‎Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1825. Contemp. hcalf. 5 raised bands, gilt spine and gilt lettering to spine. A few scratches to spine. Small stamp on verso and on titlepage. A tear to right margin of titlepage repaired. In: ""Annalen der Physik und Chemie. Hrsg. von J.C. Poggendorff"", Poggendorff Bd. 4. (10),476 pp., 4 large folded tables, 6 engraved plates, some folding. Small stamp on verso of plates. Ohm's paper: pp.79-88. Internally fine and clean.‎

‎First appearance of a paper of outmost importence in the history of electricity, - it is Ohm's first scientific paper, and it contains the report on the different original experiments (sending a current through a variety of test wires) that was the foundation for his famous law, Ohm's Law. The paper contains the original research material that was to immortalize his name, for the mathematical formulation of the law two years later in the well-known work ""Die galvanische Kette, mathematisch bearbeitet"" (1827). - This paper was at the same time published in Schweiggers Journal.""Ohm's first scientific paper was ""Vorläufige Anzeige des Gesetzes..."" (the paper offered). In it he sought a functional relationship between the decrease in the electromagnetic force excerted by a current-carrying wire and the lenght of the wire...Fromthe zinc and copper poles of a voltaic pile he ran two wires, A and B, the free ends of which terminated in small mercury-filled cups, M and N"" between M and another cup, O, he ran a third wire, C. Together A,B, and C formed what he called the ""invariable conductor"", to distinguish it from one of the seven wires of different lenghts that, when placed in a circuit between O and N, constituted the ""variable conductor"". Among the latter was one ""veru thick"" wire, four inches long, and six thinner ones, 0.3 line (.025"") in diameter, ranging in lenght from one foot to seventy-five feet. Finally, over wire C hung the magnetic needle of a Coulomb torsion balance, which served to measure the electromagnetic force exerted when one of the variable conductors completed the circuit....(He then found that) the loss in force was equal to the difference between the normal force and the lesser force occasioned by one of the other wires, divided by the normal force. Tabulating these value against the lenghts of the wires, he found that his data were well represented by the formula v=0.41 log (1+x), where v is the loss in force and x is the lenght of the wire in feet....""(DSB X, p.187). - This expression is the preliminary formula for his famous relations between voltage, amperage and resistance, R=V/I.Parkinson ""Breakthrough"" 1825 P. - Ronald's Library p. 376.The volume contains other importent papers in the history of chemistry and physics, Berzelius, F. Wöhler, F.E. Neumann, Heinrich Rose, Chr. Hansteen, Fresnel etc.‎

‎First edition of Olafsson’s landmark work, which is considered the foundation for all later researches on Iceland. The authors travelled around Iceland between the years 1752 and 1757 describing the geology, geography, zoology, botany, archaeology, mineralogy, etc. as well as the economic conditions - an expedition initiated by the Royal Danish Society. “His account is characterized by a certain independence from external references or foreign images he points out differences and yet confers equal value. This emancipation from a world view that exalts uniformity and homogeneity rather than difference and alterity is demonstrated in the auto references Eggert uses. Instead of continuously comparing Iceland to Denmark or other “civilized” cultures, he compares one part of the island with another Icelandic region or the Icelandic status quo with the situation in the past.” (Schaer, From Hell to Homeland, Eggert Olafsson’s Reise igiennem Island and the Construction of Icelandic Identity). Unlike earlier travel accounts, Eggert structures his description in accordance with his actual travels. Thus, he does not give general statements about the land or the people, but he divides his work into four chapters which correspond to the four districts of the country and treats them according to his travels. The survey is generally characterized by a wish to note everything remarkable and does not discriminate between strange and easily-explainable phenomena.“In his detailed description of a natural environment profoundly different from the European one, Eggert does not in any way deny or dismiss the immense effect Icelandic nature must have had on the foreign visitor. But he discovers that discussion of hetero stereotypes, rather than adoption of these foreign views, is necessary to create an auto image. When examining the Icelandic glaciers on behalf of the Danish Academy of Sciences, he does not underestimate the impression these glaciers would have on a foreign spectator. He explicitly states that somebody who sees them for the first time in their life must be more impressed than the native Icelander. The intimidating effect of Icelandic nature thus becomes an attribute dependent on the recipient’s cultural background. Finally, Eggert states that one “does not need the poetic terms of speech of the older days to imagine those effects of nature.” (ibid., p. 101) It is neither necessary to stress the Icelandic nature’s intimidating and terrifying aspect nor to defend the glaciers variance from European or Danish nature by declaring them something more valuable, or even supernatural.” (Schaer, From Hell to Homeland, Eggert Olafsson’s Reise igiennem Island and the Construction of Icelandic Identity). In Iceland, Eggert Ólafsson is also known for his moralist poems, some of which even today enjoy considerable popularity, and he is still considered one of the earliest founders of Icelandic nationalism. The work was later translated into German, French and English. An appendix on Icelandic plants (Flora Islandica) by Johan Zoega is at the end of vol. II.Fiske I 439.Klose 598.Biblioteca Danica III, 613.Regarding the map see Hermansson: The Carthography of Iceland p. 53.‎

‎First English translation of Olber's famous work on the orbits of comets.""In 1796 Olbers discovered a Comet and calculated its parabolic orbit with a new method, simpler than that used by Laplace. In a letter to F.X. von Zach...Olbers asked whether his treatise on this method shouild be printed, and if so, how this could be done. After reading the tratise and using it with excellent results to compute the orbit of the comet of 1779, which had presented great difficulties to many astronomers, von Zach decided to see it through the press himself. It appeared in Weimar in 1797 under the title ""Über die leichteste und bequemste Methode, die Bahn eines Kometen aus einigen Beobachtungen zu berechnen"" This work immediately established Olbers among the formost astronomers of his time, and his method was used tyhroughout the nineteenth century.""(DSB X, p. 198).‎

‎Wentelbaan, 'n novelle, Streuvels.‎

‎, eigen beheer, 2011 Hardcover ,Format : 5.83" x 8.27" Number of pages : 69pp.‎

‎Stijn Streuvels is gebore in 1871 en sterf in 1969. Sy vader was kleremaker en sy moeder die dogter van ?n tuinier. Guido Gezelle was sy oom aan moederskant. Streuvels toring uit as een van die grootste figure van die Nederlandse literatuur, en sy novelle, Het leven en de dood in de ast (Die Wentelbaan), is een van die hoogtepunte. Hoewel hy ?n tragiese figuur is, is die mens se lewe nie sonder sy ligter oomblikke nie. Dood waarsku die mens om op te kyk na die sterre, om te leef 'soos die voels van die veld'. Die samehangende lae ? die boeiende prosa, maatskaplike konteks, menslike psige en besinning ? bepaal die gehalte van Streuvels se novelle. Die struktuur self weerspieel die opvatting van die ewige siklus. ?n Tegniek wat magiese realisme antisipeer, verleen vorm aan die dualitiese posisie van die karakters. Die metafore is direk ontleen aan die wereld van die dramatis personae. Die teks word verryk deur musikale elemente, wat harmoniseer in byna poetiese prosa. orig. Stijn Streuvels vert. Marianne Strydom (Suid-Afrika) en Omer Vandeputte (Belgie) Engelse vertaling: When the Wheel Turns its Circle. Franse vertaling: Vie et mort dans la secherie.‎
