(Bampton lectures ; 1920) (Brandreth, Unity and reunion: a bibliography, no. 885) -- `Headlam's Bampton lectures of 1920.were the first great ecumenical work by an English theologian in modern times; the book set in motion a fermant which has never completely died down. .I have kept H…eadlam steadily in mind as a kind of yard-stick for my ecumenical ponderings. I know that he would have agreed, had he lived, with many of my views. I hope that he might have found it possible to approve my efforts to follow the example of his diligence, and the lucidity of his thought and expression.'

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. PATERSON, Andrew Barton 'Banjo' (collected & intro. Rosamund Campbell & Philippa Harvie; illus. Norman Lindsay, Lionel Lindsay, Frank Mahony, Neville Cayley, Edward Borein, W. Lister, W. Longstaff, V. Bowring, et al.). Complete Works: Singer of the Bush, 1885-1900 & Song of… the Pen, 1901-1941. Sydney: Lansdowne Press, 1983. 2 vols. 4to. Both volumes bound in full brown calf. Housed together in matching brown calf solander case. Singer of the Bush: 723 pp; Song of the Pen: xxvi, 790 pp. Profusely illustrated throughout with black and white and colour plates, photographs, and line drawings, including works by Norman Lindsay, Lionel Lindsay, Frank Mahony, Neville Cayley, Edward Borein, W. Lister, W. Longstaff, and V. Bowring. Deluxe Commemorative Limited Edition. Limited to 350 numbered copies, this being number 289. Includes an original signed artwork entitled "The Homestead," signed by editors Rosamund Campbell and Philippa Harvie. Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson (1864-1941) is, by any reasonable measure, the most widely loved poet Australia has produced: the author of "Waltzing Matilda," Australia's unofficial national anthem, and of "The Man from Snowy River," a ballad so thoroughly absorbed into the national imagination that it has given its name to a mountain range, a film, and an entire register of Australian bush mythology. This Lansdowne edition, published in 1983, was the first occasion on which the entirety of Paterson's literary output; his poetry, short stories, novels, memoirs, journalism, children's stories, and wartime dispatches, was gathered into a single comprehensive edition. It remains the definitive and most complete edition of Paterson's work ever produced. The illustration programme draws on an extraordinary roster of significant Australian artists of Paterson's own era and after. The deluxe commemorative edition, of which this is number 289 of 350, distinguishes itself from the standard trade edition in both its construction and its contents. Both volumes are bound in full leather and housed in a beautiful solander case. It also includes an original artwork signed by the volumes' editors and compilers, Rosamund Campbell and Philippa Harvie, whose scholarly work assembling and introducing this edition made its publication possible. Fine throughout. Beautifully preserved and presents well. Please note: This is a large, heavy two-volume set. Additional postage costs may apply. If so, we will contact you after purchase. Norman Lindsay, Lionel Lindsay, Frank Mahony, Neville Cayley, Edward Borein, W. Lister, W. Longstaff, V. Bowring (illustrator). Signed by Author(s).

Volumes for 1934-1961 bound in original cloth, the remainder in attractive half, dark-green morocco. Most volumes have the original wrappers bound in, but excluding the first few years. Dozens of colour plates…of exotic birds, many of which commissioned specialy for Foreign Birds, and by well-known artists including, Neville Cayley, R. A. Vowles, Lawrence and Heinzel, but it is Vowells who has made the greatest contribution, many of his plates outstanding. Generally in very good condition, some of the earlier cloth bindings are slightly worn, but remain strong, contents clean and tight, no inscriptions.

In den Warenkorb(27,5 x 21,5 cm). (2) 38 S. Rückenbroschur. Erste Ausgabe der französischen Zusammenfassung seiner beiden berühmten Arbeiten "On the Theory of Linear Transformations" und "On Linear Transformations". - "In 1843 Cayley was moved by Boole's paper to calculate the invariants of nth-order forms. Later he published a revised version…of two papers he had written. He also attempted to discover the relations between independent invariants - or 'hyperdeterminants,' as he called them at first, looking upon algebraic invariance as a generalized form of the multiplication of determinants. Cayley may be regarded as the first mathematician to have stated the problem of algebraic invariance in general terms" (DSB). - Durchgehend etwas stockfleckig und ohne die auf dem Titel angegebende Tafel, die jedoch nicht zur Arbeit von Cayley gehört. - DSB 3, 162.

In den Warenkorb(London, Richard Taylor and William Francis, 1854). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1854, Vol. 144 - Part I. Pp. 245-258. First printing of the first paper in Cayley's famous memoirs on 'quantics', a term he coined for algebraic forms. In this paper Cayley throughout remodelled the whole basis for… Invariant Theory."In addition to his part in founding the theory of abstract groups, Cayley has a number of important theorems to his credit: perhaps the best known is that every finite group whatsoever is isomorphic with a suitable group of permutations (see the first paper of 1854). This is often reckoned to be one of the three most important theorems of the subject, the others being the theorems of Lagrange and Sylow. But perhaps still more significant was his early appreciation of the way in which the theory of groups was capable of drawing together many different domains of mathematics: his own illustrations, for instance, were drawn from the theories of elliptic functions, matrices, quantics, quaternions, homographic transformations, and the theory of equations. If Cayley failed to pursue his abstract approach, this fact is perhaps best explained in terms of the enormous progress he was making in these subjects taken individually."(DSB).

In den Warenkorb(London, Richard Taylor and William Francis, 1859). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" Vol. 149 - Part I. Pp. 61-90. Clean and fine. First appearance of this pathbreaking paper in which Cayley unites 'Metrical Geometry' and 'Projectice Geometry' by introducing "imaginary" elements to metrical propert…ies."The fundamental notions in metrical geometry are the distance between two points and the angle between two lines. Replacing the concept of distance by another, also involving "imaginary" elements, Cayley provided the means for unifying Euclideangeometry and the common non-Euclidean gemoetries into one comprehensive theory."(Bell in "Men of Mathematics").In non-Euclidean geometry prepared the way for Klein's splendid discovery that the geometry of Euclid and the non-Euclidean geometries of Lobatchewsky and Riemann are, all threee, merely different aspects of a more general kind of geometry which includes them as special cases.Dealing with the relations between metrical and projective geometry Klein remarks (In "Entwicklung der Mathematik", Teil I p. 148): "Vor allem kommt für uns sein (Cayley's) berühmtes 'A Sixth Memoir upon Quantics" im betrachtt. Quantioc heisst soviwel "Form", d.h. homogenes Polynom von zwei, drei oder mehr Variablen, wonach man binäre, tertiäre usw. Formen unterscheidet.".
