FLATLAND (Illustrated) A Romance of Many Dimensions【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Edwin A. Abbott's 'Flatland (Illustrated)' is a groundbreaking work of mathematical fiction that explores the concept of multiple dimensions through the lens of a two-dimensional world inhabited by geometric shapes. The book provides a satirical commentary on Victorian society while also serving as a thought-provoking allegory on the limitations of human perception. Abbott's use of allegory and satire creates a playful yet insightful narrative that challenges readers to think beyond their perceived realities. As a respected scholar and theologian, Edwin A. Abbott's background in mathematics and classical literature likely influenced his creation of 'Flatland'. His precise and detailed explanations of geometry and dimensions showcase his dedication to accurately portraying a two-dimensional world. Abbott's intellectual curiosity and passion for exploring new ideas shine through in the pages of 'Flatland', making it a unique and thought-provoking read for readers of all ages. I highly recommend 'Flatland (Illustrated)' to readers interested in philosophical fiction, mathematics, and social commentary. Abbott's clever narrative and innovative approach to storytelling make this book a must-read for anyone looking to expand their understanding of dimensions and perception.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novel. Written pseudonymously by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions. The story describes a two-dimensional world occupied by geometric figures, whereof women are simple line-segments, while men are polygons with various numbers of sides. The narrator is a square named A Square, a member of the caste of gentlemen and professionals, who guides the readers through some of the implications of life in two dimensions. Flatland has often been categorized as science fiction although it could more precisely be called "mathematical fiction". With the advent of modern science fiction from the 1950s to the present day, Flatland has seen a revival in popularity, especially among science fiction and cyberpunk fans. Many works have been inspired by the novella, including novel sequels and short films.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

Flatland A Romance of Many Dimensions【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>'Upward, yet not Northward.' How would a creature limited to two dimensions be able to grasp the possibility of a third? Edwin A. Abbott's droll and delightful 'romance of many dimensions' explores this conundrum in the experiences of his protagonist, A Square, whose linear world is invaded by an emissary Sphere bringing the gospel of the third dimension on the eve of the new millennium. Part geometry lesson, part social satire, this classic work of science fiction brilliantly succeeds in enlarging all readers' imaginations beyond the limits of our 'respective dimensional prejudices'. In a world where class is determined by how many sides you possess, and women are straight lines, the prospects for enlightenment are boundless, and Abbott's hypotheses about a fourth and higher dimensions seem startlingly relevant today. This new edition of Flatland illuminates the social and intellectual context that produced the work as well as the timeless questions that it raises about the limits of our perception and knowledge. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 680円

<p>Edwin A. Abbott’s hallucinatory tale has captivated readers for more than a hundred yearsーincluding contemporary scientists such as Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. In this mind-expanding satire, <em>Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions</em> describes a two-dimensional world organized by strict caste system of geometrical forms. The narrator, A. Square, introduces us to Flatland before describing his revelatory explorations of Lineland, a one-dimensional world, and Pointland, a world of no dimensions, and the hitherto inconceivable three-dimensional world of Spaceland, through which he is ushered by his Virgil-like guide, Sphere. In Flatland, Square is regarded as a heretic and imprisoned for his belief in the existence of a third, and possibly even a fourth, dimension.</p> <p>Although it did not achieve popular success on its publication in 1884, <em>Flatland</em> gained a broad audience after the publication of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which focused attention on the concept of a fourth dimension.

Flatland【電子書籍】[ Edwin Abbott Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Written in 1884 by English schoolteacher Edwin Abbott Abbott, "Flatland" (full name "<em>Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions</em>") is a literary hybrid, a math- and science-based novella that creates a fictional land while at the same time satirizing Victorian culture and introducing theories of space’s multi-dimensional nature.</p> <p>Flatland is a world that exists on the two-dimensional plane, where its inhabitantsーliteral geometrical shapesーlive in a highly-structured society organized into classes based on the number of sides of a figure. The narrator and protagonist of "Flatland", mathematician A. Square (a pseudonym originally given as the author of the book), writes from prison, intricately detailing the social organization of his country and recounting the revelations he has received from the sacred “<em>Sphere</em>.”<br /> In Flatland women are straight lines and are considered the lowest of shapes. Men are polygons and the number of sides they have is dependent on their ranking in the social hierarchy. Odd and unexpected incidents bring A. Square together with numerous other geometric shapes. Some of the places he ventures into are Spaceland, which has three dimensions, Lineland, which is one-dimensional, and Pointland, which does not have any dimensions. A. Square also imagines a land with four dimensions, which is considered a subversive concept.</p> <p>While other Victorian literature may be turned to more frequently as “classic” examples of time and genre, "Flatland" remains intellectually challenging given that it prompts an examination of the elements of society without needing to adhere to a firm delineation between fact and fiction.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 61円

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>First published in 1884, "Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions” is English schoolmaster Edwin Abbott’s classic work of science fiction. With the use of a geometric theme, Abbott weaves the fascinating tale of “A Square”, an inhabitant of “Flatland”, a two-dimensional world where women are portrayed as simple line-segments and men are represented as polygons whose social status is determined by the number and regularity of their sides. Through this device Abbott satirizes the seemingly arbitrary hierarchy of the Victorian era. In addition to a brilliant work of satire “Flatland” is a thought-provoking examination of the bounds of physical space. On the eve of the third millennium “A Square” dreams of a one-dimensional world, “Lineland”, that is inhabited by “lustrous points”. Subsequently he is visited by “A Sphere”, an inhabitant of a three-dimensional world called “Spaceland”, which he fails to comprehend until he sees it for himself. Having his mind opened to the existence of other dimensions “A Square” posits the theoretical possibility of the existence of four, five, and six dimensional worlds, an idea which gets him thrown out of “Spaceland” in disgrace. One of the most original pieces of literature ever written, “Flatland” is a witty and satirical adventure that explores the very nature of physical reality itself.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 509円

<p><strong>The beloved science fiction classic</strong></p> <p>In Flatland, the more sides a man has, the more powerful he is. Triangles are laborers and soldiers. Squares and pentagons are middle-class doctors and lawyers. Hexagons are nobility. Women, however, are straight lines, incapable of advancement in a two-dimensional world. Everything in Flatland is clear-cut and orderly, until the day an average citizenーa Squareーdreams of a land of three dimensions. If three dimensions are possible, why not four? Or one? Soon, the Square’s provocative imagination and corresponding adventures threaten to turn the whole of Flatland against him.</p> <p>First published in 1884, two decades before Einstein’s theory of relativity defined time as the fourth dimension, Edwin Abbott’s <em>Flatland</em> is both a prescient exploration of the unseen and a delightful skewering of Victorian social strictures.</p> <p>This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 616円

<p>Eine ganz normale norwegische Familie: Mama, Papa, die erwachsenen Kinder Liv, Ellen und H?kon und die Enkel Agnar und Hedda. Alle gehen ihren interessanten Berufen nach, verstehen sich gut. Feiern gemeinsam die Feste des Jahres. Treffen sich sonntags mit ihren zum Teil wechselnden Partnern zum Essen bei den Eltern. Im Sommer verbringt man Zeit in der Familien-H?tte in den Bergen. Und dann das: Am siebzigsten Geburtstag von Papa verk?nden die Eltern, da? sie sich scheiden lassen wollen. Pl?tzlich ist nichts mehr, wie es war. Wie in einem Mikado-Spiel, bei dem ein herausgezogenes St?bchen die Balance zum Einsturz bringen kann, bricht die Familienidylle zusammen, es gibt scheinbar keinen sicheren Boden mehr. Auch das Leben der Kinder ger?t in profunde Unordnung. Erz?hlt wird diese spannende Geschichte ?ber die Untiefen des Familienlebens abwechselnd von Liv, Ellen und H?kon. Durch diesen Kunstgriff gewinnt der Roman einen einzigartigen Perspektivenreichtum und zeichnet konturscharf das Bild moderner Menschen und ihrer K?mpfe, Verletzungen und Tr?ume.</p> <p>Helga Flatland (Jg. 1984) hat f?r ihren f?nften Roman, Eine moderne Familie (2017), den ≫Preis der norwegischen Buchh?ndler≪ erhalten.

Flatland A Romance of Many Dimensions【電子書籍】[ Edwin Abbott Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 1884, Edwin Abbott Abbott wrote a mathematical adventure set in a two-dimensional plane world, populated by a hierarchical society of regular geometrical figures-who think and speak and have all too human emotions. Since then <em>Flatland</em> has fascinated generations of readers, becoming a perennial science-fiction favorite. By imagining the contact of beings from different dimensions, the author fully exploited the power of the analogy between the limitations of humans and those of his two-dimensional characters.</p> <p>A first-rate fictional guide to the concept of multiple dimensions of space, the book will also appeal to those who are interested in computer graphics. This field, which literally makes higher dimensions seeable, has aroused a new interest in visualization. We can now manipulate objects in four dimensions and observe their three-dimensional slices tumbling on the computer screen. But how do we interpret these images? In his introduction, Thomas Banchoff points out that there is no better way to begin exploring the problem of understanding higher-dimensional slicing phenomena than reading this classic novel of the Victorian era.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,489円

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, Illustrated【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbot ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>I call our world Flatland, not because we call it so, but to make its nature clearer to you, my happy readers, who are privileged to live in Space.<br /> Imagine a vast sheet of paper on which straight Lines, Triangles, Squares, Pentagons, Hexagons, and other figures, instead of remaining fixed in their places, move freely about, on or in the surface, but without the power of rising above or sinking below it, very much like shadowsーonly hard and with luminous edgesーand you will then have a pretty correct notion of my country and countrymen. Alas, a few years ago, I should have said "my universe": but now my mind has been opened to higher views of things.<br /> In such a country, you will perceive at once that it is impossible that there should be anything of what you call a "solid" kind; but I dare say you will suppose that we could at least distinguish by sight the Triangles, Squares, and other figures, moving about as I have described them. On the contrary, we could see nothing of the kind, not at least so as to distinguish one figure from another. Nothing was visible, nor could be visible, to us, except Straight Lines; and the necessity of this I will speedily demonstrate.<br /> Place a penny on the middle of one of your tables in Space; and leaning over it, look down upon it. It will appear a circle.<br /> But now, drawing back to the edge of the table, gradually lower your eye (thus bringing yourself more and more into the condition of the inhabitants of Flatland), and you will find the penny becoming more and more oval to your view, and at last when you have placed your eye exactly on the edge of the table (so that you are, as it were, actually a Flatlander) the penny will then have ceased to appear oval at all, and will have become, so far as you can see, a straight line.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 484円

Flatland【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbott ]

<p>Another classic converted by eBooksLib.com. If my poor Flatland friend retained the vigour of mind which he enjoyed when he began to compose these Memoirs, I should not now need to represent him in this preface, in which he desires, firstly, to return his thanks to his readers and critics in Spaceland, whose appreciation has, with unexpected celerity, required a second edition of his work; secondly, to apologize for certain errors and misprints (for which, however, he is not entirely responsible); and, thirdly, to explain one or two misconceptions</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 327円

The Flatland Chronicles【電子書籍】[ Ken White ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Every day, I encounter people and places, sights and sounds, memories and mementos that are or symbolize the then, now, and yet to be of my life. It is a chronicle of the immediate past, present, and future.</p> <p>At each stage of life, we journey down roads that are familiar and well-traveled, having driven them our entire life. They are the roads taken. The landmarks we pass are beloved and well-known. Although many of the roads are the same ones we've travelled before, we are different. We may pass someone along the way who looks familiar, only to realize that it was, is, or will be us in an earlier, current, or imagined incarnation.</p> <p>Joan Didion, a Central Valley refugee, once wrote that "a place belongs forever to whoever claims it hardest, remembers it most obsessively, wrenches it from itself, shapes it, renders it, loves it so radically that he remakes it in his own image." I believe that. Modesto belongs to me and the Central Valley is mine. I am a Flatlander.</p> <p>I tell stories that take place here and involve those who live here. Tales inspired by an actual locale, genuine people, and true events - real, imagined, and/or recollected. They have all shaped who I am and how I see the world. They are my personal remembrance of things past. The five senses conjuring d?j? vu and the familiar as surely as Proust's tea-dipped madeleines.</p> <p>Everyone is a storyteller, everyone has a story to tell, and everyone appreciates a story well-told. Our lives, our experiences, and our world view are our stories. Each of us tells our stories from that unique perspective, whether it's in a novel, a song, a painting, a poem, the volunteer work we do, or the way we live our lives.</p> <p>The Flatland Chronicles is a collection of stories that highlights the many uncommon threads that make up this amazing tapestry I call home. It is a fictional memoir in the style of the Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters. Instead of poems, it is a collection of short, short stories about life in California's Central Valley.</p> <p>The world is made up of stories, not atoms.</p> <p>- Muriel Rukeyser, Poet</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,400円

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions Deluxe Illustrated E-Reader Edition【電子書籍】[ Edwin A. Abbott ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The "Deluxe Illustrated E-Reader Edition" of Flatland is the edition you've been waiting for; a nicely formatted e-reader edition of the classic novella Flatland, including all original illustrations, a table of contents, original footnotes, and bonus footnotes.</p> <p>"The best introduction one can find into the manner of perceiving dimensions." -- Isaac Asimov.</p> <p>First published in 1884, Edwin A. Abbott's classic novella is many things: a biting social satire on Victorian society, an exhortation to literally think outside the box (or, if you're a privileged Spacelander, outside the cube), and above all a testament to the universal quest for knowledge and the inherent beauty and purity of mathematical truth. Flatland tells the story of "A SQUARE," a mathematician living in the Second dimension, known as Flatland, whose perceptions of his Universe are turned upside down when he is visited by a Sphere from the Third dimension, known as Spaceland. "A SQUARE" also muses on life in Lineland and Pointland.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 132円
