Special and General Relativity

Special and General Relativity

Rainer Dick

Morgan Claypool Publishers
2019
nidottu
This book provides a concise introduction to the special theory of relativity and the general theory of relativity. The format has been chosen to provide the basis for a single semester course that can take the students all the way from the foundations of special relativity to the core results of general relativity: the Einstein equation, and the equations of motion for particles and light in curved spacetime. To facilitate access to the topics of special and general relativity for science and engineering students, without prior training in relativity or geometry, the relevant geometric notions are also introduced.
Letters to a Young Poet and Poems

Letters to a Young Poet and Poems

Rainer Maria Rilke

BLACK EAGLE BOOKS
2023
pokkari
"Letters To A Young Poet" by Rainer Maria Rilke is a prosaic work, but it refers directly to poetry. There are ten letters written to a young man about to enter the German military. In the very beginning of the 1903, Rilke received a letter from a twenty-year old lieutenant of Austro-Hungarian army Franz Kappus. Verses were enclosed to the letter: the lieutenant turned out to be a poet. Rilke answered. Rilke wrote Franz Kappus ten letters; the last of them is dated by December 1908. After Rilke's death, the letters were published in a separate book entitled "Letters To A Young Poet". Of all Rilke's extensive correspondence, these letters won the greatest popularity. It is explained by their content: there is nothing personal or private in them; Rilke wrote about the poetry, nature of poetic works, irony, loneliness, love etc. His philosophy-aesthetic views of that time are well reflected in these letters.

In Defense of Capitalism

Republic Book Publishers

Rainer Zitelmann examines the ten most common objections to capitalism: capitalism leads to hunger and poverty, to rising inequality, to unnecessary consumption, to environmental destruction, to climate change and wars. Capitalism, its critics say, prioritizes profits over humanity, creates dominant monopolies, and undermines democracy. Zitelmann scrutinizes each of these arguments in turn and reveals the critical flaws that debunk them. He offers counter arguments to each charge, deploying a wealth of historical evidence and eye-opening facts to prove that it is not capitalism that has failed, but a century of anti-capitalist experiments.The second part of the book explores popular perceptions of capitalism in Europe, the USA, Latin America and Asia and is based on a specially commissioned Ipsos MORI poll of 21 countries, the results of which are presented here for the first time.

pokkari
Power in Me is a poetic journey through the womb- the struggles, the healing, and the morality. The empowerment of womb bodies is needed now more than ever, and the call to action is found within the pages of this book. A deeply relatable, and urgent message is laid out in Power in Me for all humans alike. Philosophies touched on in this poetry book cover things such as patriarchy, Mother Earth, sisterhood, family, healing, action, and forgiveness. Poems are accompanied by illustrations, also done by the author, Raina. As the final book in The Awareness Series, Power in Me is served as the bittersweet dessert that true awareness of today's world brings us all to see. A slowly crumbling Earth due to a disrespect to Mother Nature can only be healed when wombs are no longer controlled by man made structure. Our healing as womb and man has begun, and so let us now walk into our power in our human experience.

Rainer Maria Rilke

Rilke began writing the elegies in 1912 while a guest of Princess Marie von Thurn und Taxis (1855-1934) at Duino Castle, near Trieste on the Adriatic Sea. During the next ten years, the elegies languished incomplete for long stretches of time as Rilke suffered frequently from severe depression. Aside from brief episodes of writing in 1913 and 1915, Rilke did not return to the work until a few years after the war ended. With a sudden, renewed inspiration - writing at a frantic pace he described as "a savage creative storm" - he completed the collection in February 1922. After their publication and his death shortly thereafter, the Duino Elegies were quickly recognized by critics and scholars as Rilke's most important work.
Soviet cult cameras: Traveling with the Lomo Sokol. Images from Rethen
Art or film waste?Anyone traveling with a lomographic camera can see better how colorful life can actually be, if you do not look too closely. Lomography is a phenomenon in its absurdity of action. She can be addictive, she can leave you cold. In any case, it is a piece of freedom against the illusion of digitalisation in photography that has turned a camera into a computer that accidentally takes pictures.The examination of lomographic images makes one dizzy.And happy.Rainer StrzolkaRainer Strzolka (Berlin, Germany) makes photos and conceptual artworks. By studying sign processes, signification and communication, Strzolka makes work that generates diverse meanings. Associations and meanings collide. Space becomes time and language becomes image.His photos are based on inspiring situations: visions that reflect a sensation of indisputability and serene contemplation, combined with subtle details of odd or eccentric, humoristic elements. With a subtle minimalistic approach, he wants the viewer to become part of the art as a kind of added component. Art is entertainment: to be able to touch the work, as well as to interact with the work is important.His works question the conditions of appearance of an image in the context of contemporary visual culture in which images, representations and ideas normally function. By creating situations and breaking the passivity of the spectator, he creates work in which a fascination with the clarity of content and an uncompromising attitude towards conceptual and minimal art can be found. The work is aloof and systematic and a cool and neutral imagery is used.His practice provides a useful set of allegorical tools for manoeuvring with a pseudo-minimalist approach in the world of photography: these meticulously planned works resound and resonate with images culled from the fantastical realm of imagination. Rainer Strzolka currently lives and works in Brela, Croatia.
