[EAN: 9780267968329], Neubuch, [PU: Forgotten Books, United Kingdom], Language: English. Brand new Book. Excerpt from Einstein and the Universe: A Popular Exposition of the Famous Theory But for English and German writers the new task is very difficult. Neither anglo-saxon nor Saxon genius lends itself readily in this direction. Nor has the task as yet been taken in hand completely, so far as I am aware, in France. Still, in France there is a spirit and a gift of expression which makes the ap proach to it easier than either for us or for the Germans. Lucidity in expression is an endowment which the best French writers possess in a higher degree than we do. Some of us have accordingly awaited with deep interest French renderings of the difficult doctrine of Einstein. M. Nordmann, in addition to being a highly qualified astronomer and mathematical-physicist, possesses the gift of his race. The Latin capacity for eliminating abstractness from the description of facts is every where apparent in his writing. Individual facts take the places of general conceptions, of Begrifie. The language is that of the Vo'rstellung, in a way that would hardly be practicable in German. Nor is our own language equal to that of France in delicacy of distinctive description. This book could hardly have been written by an Englishman. But the difficulty in his way would have been one as much of spirit as of letter. It is the lucidity of the French author, in com bination with his own gift of expression, that has made it possible for the translator to succeed so well in over coming the obstacles to giving the exposition in our own tongue this book contains. The rendering seems to me, after reading the book both in French and in English, admirable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
