Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In 1851, the physicist Leon Foucault performed an unforgettable experiment. By suspending a large pendulum inside the dome of Paris' Pantheon, Foucault provided the first simple, direct empirical evidence of the Earth's rotation an undeniable demonstration of heliocentrism. This experiment, conducted long after the Copernican Revolution and using a laboratory apparatus rather than astronomical observation, visually confirmed what had previously been accepted as theory. The pendulum's motion clearly illustrated the Earth's rotation. But Foucault's experiment did not end there. It sparked a range of subsequent reenactments and interpretations, each adding new layers to its meaning. Repeated over and again, its afterlives were many as were its ramifications.Historian Michael Hagner revisits this epoch-making experiment and its reception from the nineteenth century to the present day and follows how cosmological questions conjoined political and aesthetic judgments about the public staging and history of science. The pendulum experiment, Hagner argues, is more than just a mere scientific demonstration. It contains within it the histories of technological innovation, ideological conflicts, and the rise of popular culture and visual media. In a series of insightful studies of literary, artistic, and scientific reenactments, Hagner uses both words and images to narrate the rich and complex legacy of this experiment.Seeing Foucault's Pendulum includes among other fascinating tales, a short but stunning history of the Copernican Revolution, the paradigm-shifting work of the nineteenth-century astronomer Camille Flammarion, and the reenactments of Foucault's experiment at the Smithsonian Institution and New York's United Nations building. Linking nature to culture and calling for world unity, the experiment's legacy extends beyond science. It has been reimagined in Umberto Eco's novel Foucault's Pendulum and in Gerhard Richter's 2018 installation, enchantments of the postmodern world theater where the relationship between knowledge and sensory experience is problematised anew. A complex symbol in the history of ideas challenging our assumptions, inspiring artistic expression, and prompting philosophical reflection on our place in the cosmos Foucault's experiment serves as a powerful reminder that both the Earth and the universe should never be reduced to a disposable mass of human hubris and of irresponsible manipulation.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Book Club Edition. The story begins 15,000 years ago with a clan of small brown people- the San, later called "Bushmen". A beautiful lake, long the center of their lives, is drying up, and they must move across a hostile African desert to seek better conditions. The hardships overcome by this intrepid band- hunters, wanderers, artists- are minor compared with what will eventually confront those who come after them. Some of these are next shown in the 15th century toiling in the gold mines that enrich the black empire of Zimbabwe. They are overseen by Nxumalo, who has achieved power and fortune in that great city and who is an ancestor of one of the three principal families in this book. The first European settlement in South Africa is a Dutch out post established in 1652 at the Cape of Good Hope. An original settler at the Cape is Willem van Doorn. Born in Java to a prominent Dutch family, he is a member of the first of the ten generations of Van Doorns who dominate this novel and an early contributor to the racial mixture that will later be despised and repressed as the Coloureds. He is a pioneer in the eastward movement which spreads his family and their countrymen to the Indian Ocean. For a century and a half there is little to deter the enemy; the San and the Khoikoi ("Hot-tentots") are destroyed or pushed aside, and other European immigrants quickly assimilated. But the end of the 18th century brings more formidable obstacles; the Boers' expansion to the east is encroaching on the territories of potent black tribes like the Xhosa and the Zulu; and in 1795 the English occupy the Cape, soon ceded to Great Britain by Holland. Early 19th century English settlers arrive, causing different conflicts, leading to the Boer War (1899-1902).

Neuware - Through encounters with people, place, and the natural world, Jennifer distils her lived wisdom into subtle provocations: How to travel with attention rather than haste; why discomfort can sharpen perception; what nature teaches about resilience, retreat, and renewal; how storytelling becomes a map-one that guides as much as it questions.- Emma Horne, Travel Curator and Founder of Emma Horne TravelsA journey begins with a single step-but some steps change how we see the world.Ink on the Move follows naturalist and storyteller Jennifer Nandi as she travels through Ladakh, Spiti, Kashmir, Karnataka, and beyond, weaving landscapes, people, and the natural world into everyday life.
