Contact seller4-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. 1 leaf, 45 pp. Later cloth-backed boards, with original front wrapper trimmed and mounted on front board. Upper corners of boards worn. Paper browned. First Edition. Reprints two papers published in Archiv für die zeichnenden Künste: "Vorbesprechung über die Deutungsfrage der Holbein sche…n Madonna mit Rücksicht auf die Handzeichnung Nr.65 des Baseler Museums"; "Die älteste historische Quelle über die Holbeinsche Madonna." In the first article, Fechner "answers challenges by critics to his hypothesis that the infant in the arms of Holbein s Meyer Madonna amalgamates the Christ Child and the donor s sick child. Cites a tradition in Swabian and Bavarian chapels . . . in which statues of the Madonna hold images of the deceased children of families wishing to commend their souls to heaven. Argues that drawing no. 65 in the Basel Kunstmuseum, depicting the virgin and a kneeling soldier, is a preliminary design for the painting. Sees Holbein's own child as the model for the child in the drawing" (Michael, Hans Holbein the Younger, no. 828, p. 325). Copy of psychologist Edwin G. Boring (with his signature on the front flyleaf). OCLC locates copies in these US libraries: Harvard, Univ. Southern California, Stanford, Wisconsin (OCLC misspells "Holbein'schen" as "Holbeiin'schen").

Add to basketLeipzig, Wilhelm Engelmann, 1897. Lex8vo. Orig. hcalf. Spine gilt and with gilt lettering. Covers with a few scratches. X"483 pp. Stamps to foot of titlepage. Internally fine and clean. First edition. Fechner is noted for the introduction of quantitative methods into psychology (e.g. Fechner's Law). His most importent contributi…on to statistics is his posthumously published book on the measurements of collectives, his "Kollektivmasslehre" from 1897. The main examples he treated are to be found in anthropology, zoology, botany, meteorology and aesthetics."Fechner's Kollektivmasslehre was of immediate influence on many of his colleagues in Leipzig. The psychologists Gottlob Friedrich Lipps, Wilhelm Wirth and to some extent also Wilhelm Wundt used the new methods in psychophysics. Charles Edward Spearman who obtained his Ph.D. under Wundt extended Fechner's ideas and studied the correlation between magnitudes. The Leipzig astronomer and mathematician Heinrich Bruns (1848-1919) soon gave a general solution to Fechner's problem of a mathematical representation of frequency distributions, the so-called Bruns-series (today called Gram-Charlier series) and tried to unify Fechner's theory of collectives with probability theory. His most illustrious student was Felix Hausdorff who carried this tradition further. (Girlich 1996) Bruns and Hausdorff, however, dropped Fechner's requirement of chance variation of the collective object, thus obscuring any trace of Fechner's indeterminism."
