(P/B) FLATLAND
A ROMANCE IN MANY DIMENSIONS
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0620

This masterpiece of science (and mathematical) fiction is a delightfully unique and highly entertaining satire that has charmed readers for more than 100 years. The work of English clergyman, educator and Shakespearean scholar Edwin A. Abbott (1838-1926), it describes the journeys of A. Square, a mathematician and resident of the two-dimensional Flatland, where women-thin, straight lines-are the lowliest of shapes, and where men may have any number of sides, depending on their social status. Through strange occurrences that bring him into ...

(P/B) TENDER BUTTONS
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0498

Before becoming the patron of Lost Generation artists, Gertrude Stein established her reputation as an innovative author whose style was closer to painting than literature. Stein's strong influence on 20th-century literature is evident in this 1915 work of highly original prose rendered in thought-provoking experimental techniques. (From the publisher)...

(P/B) THE GRAPHIC WORKS OF ODILON REDON
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0676

One of the most expressive artists of the Symbolism movement, Odilon (1840-1916) led a quiet life. Withdrawn in manner, conventional in dress, and virtually unknown for the first half of his career, the French painter and graphic artist drew upon his own startlingly complex and fantastic inner world to create haunting works that reveal an existence beyond that of everyday vision. He transformed common subjects and models into strange, eerie images and exhibited a predilection for spiders and serpents, skeletons and skulls, gnomes and monst...

(P/B) THE HUNDRED HEADLESS WOMAN
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0680

Originally published in Paris in 1929, this collage novel by avant-gardist Max Ernst constitutes a seminal 20th-century work of art. The artist's striking combinations of engravings from Victorian-era books and magazines, accompanied by enigmatic captions, offer a universe of mystery replete with all the possibilities of the bizarre dream world of the surreal. Images speak, language illustrates, and the reader's imagination provides the glue. "Irrational, violent, tender, ironic, Max Ernst has invoked the whole kaleidoscope of human pheno...

(P/B) CONSTRUCTIVE ANATOMY
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0625

Countless artists and students since the 1920s have used this and other books by George B. Bridgman (for nearly 50 years a teacher at the Art Students League in New York) for a solid foundation and understanding of human anatomy. They have found, and continue to find, that his unique way of discovering the vitalizing forces in the human form and realizing them in drawing carries the student pleasantly over one of art's most severe hurdles. Bridgman's superb anatomical sketches, of which there are nearly 500 in the book, also bring clearly ...

(P/B) SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0581

In Spoon River Anthology, the American poet Edgar Lee Masters (1869-1950) created a series of compelling free-verse monologues in which former citizens of a mythical Midwestern town speak touchingly from the grave of the thwarted hopes and dream of their lives. First published in book form in 1915, the Anthology was the crowning achievement of Masters' career as a poet, and a work that would become a landmark of 20th-century American literature. In these pages, no less than 214 individual voices are heard - some in no more than a dozen mov...

(P/B) MY BEST MATHEMATICAL AND LOGIC PUZZLES
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0645

Over a period of 25 years as author of the Mathematical Games column for Scientific American, Martin Gardner devoted a column every six months or so to short math problems or puzzles. He was especially careful to present new and unfamiliar puzzles that had not been included in such classic collections as those by Sam Loyd and Henry Dudeney. Later, these puzzles were published in book collections, incorporating reader feedback on alternate solutions or interesting generalizations. The present volume contains a rich selection of 70 of the be...

DORE'S ILLUSTRATIONS FOR DON QUIXOTE
A SELECTION OF 190 ILLUSTRATIONS BY GUSTAVE DORE
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0041

Dore himself had something of Quixote's chivalry, and had spent an arduous life draughting impossible dreams; he knew fame but he also knew pain, disillusionment and failure -at age 30 he was ready for Quixote, ready to make the Don part of his great dream: illustrating the world's great books. Dore never became the painter he yearned to be, but came very close to realizing his desired intimacy with the classics. His sympathy with Cervantes' satire was so close that, of the numerous Quixote interpretations by many outstanding artists, Dore...

(P/B) BASIC PRINCIPLES OF CLASSICAL BALLET - RUSSIAN BALLET
Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0240

Although the stars of Russian ballet Anna Pavlova and Tamara Karsavina possessed a national manner of dancing, there was no truly Russian school of dancing until the 1930s. The development of this school was largely due to Mme. Vaganova (1879-1951), not only a great dancer but also the teacher of Galina Ulanova and many others and an unsurpassed theoretician. The principles of Vaganova's system are presented in this well-known book. Mme. Vaganova's aim of creating a personal approach to the Russian dance was based on the critical assimilat...

Εκδότης: DOVER
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3033-0036

Among the best known and most immediately recognizable images in art history are the superb studies and portraits of ballet dancers by Edgar Degas (1834-1917).
