One from 40 Ashburn Place SW 9 May no year given; the other from a hotel in Munich 24 Aug. 1910 written in another hand. Total 7 pp. 8vo bifoliums sl. battered but text clear and complete if a bit of a scrawl. Letter One Ashburn Place: He wants to meet up soon and gives response to a performance of Gotterdammerung - "no impression". But he goes again "for his sins". Letter Two Munich: He wonders if his "Friend" has been suffering wondering what cure he's tried active or "peace and rest". He describes his reponse to such a situation. "I fidget and worry too much about things and wear myself to death when my mind is not occupied". He's been away from Engand for three weeks "suffering". "Morally underlined I am better but physically underlined I fear worse." Headaches etc. " "a horrid running down of teh nerves like the mainspring of a watch that nears stoppage!!" "I was at Brussels and Antwerp and at the former place saw not undelrined the Universal Exhibition hence dating of letter 1910 but that very fine one of XVII Flemish Art which is quite apart and away from the other." He's heard a "very good Ring underlined" naming the leads and looks forward to Meistersinger and some Mozart He outlines another musical prospect. "I am obliged to do something every night so as to avoid solitude and self communing as mich as posssible In front of me is nothoing underlined. Let me hear from you soon again ; the Wallace Collection to be forwarded will always find me. Affectionally C.P."

CLAUDIA BARSANTI, ALESSANDRA GUIGLIA.
The sculptures of the Ayasofya Müzesi in Istanbul. A short guide.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 15 cm). Color ills. 141 p. The lapidary collection of the Museum of Saint Sophia constitutes a priceless patrimony of sculpted marbles; though little known, it deserves of complete and systematic study. This guidebook is conceived as a useful companion devoted to the scientific divulgation of this important collection of sculptures of the city of Istanbul. Each marble sculpture, pleasantly arranged in the blooming garden in front of Saint Sophia, represents a significant "tessera" in the mosaic of the Late Antique and Byzantine city. This book offers all visitors to the Museum the opportunity to become more acquainted with these "marble treasures", treasures so frequently disregarded as a result of the overshadowing magnificence of the Justinianic building.

By this he inscribed his name as one of the founders of the Kinetic Theory of Gases."Clausius was one of the founders of the kinetic theory of gases and of the science of thermodynamics. He and Lord Kelvin at about the same time and independently announced the Second Law of thermodynamics. Clausius particularly developed the theory of thermodynamics by applying it to the study of gases and vapors."Magie in "A Source Book in Physics" p. 228."In order to analyze the process of molecular collisions Clausius adopted a simplified model for his admittedly complicated molecule. He assumed that whatever the actual patterns on intermolecular forces one could suppose that there is some advantage distance between the centers of molecules which would represent a general boundary between attractive and repulsive forces. If two molecules were to approach each other within that boundary repulsion would generally occur. Thus the very complex problem of intermolecular action was reduced to a "billiard ball" model."

Clausius' paper: pp. 73-112. With titlepage to volume 116. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of the paper in which Clausius makes importent contributions to the generalization and understanding of the Second Law of Thermodynamics by introducing the concept of disgregation and proving the equivalence of the transformation of heat."Clausius began that search for understanding in 1862 by introducing the concept of disgregation a concept that he said was based on an idea he had long held: that the force of heat for performing mechanical work both internal and external together was proportional to the absolute temperature.13 Clausius had never stated this idea explicitly before although he had argued in 1853 by adopting an analogy between a reversible steam engine and a thermocouple that the potential difference at a thermocouple junction should be proportional to the absolute temperature. In any event he now wished to assert that the work which can be done by heat in any change of the arrangement of a body is proportional to the absolute temperature multiplied by a function of molecular arrangement the disgregation Z. Given this assumption and his postulate that the heat in a body H was only a function of temperature he was able 1 to prove his theorem of the equivalence of transformations and 2 to separate the equivalence function entropy into a temperature-dependent term and a configurational-dependent term."DSB.The issue contains other notable papers Plücker "Ueber recurrente Ströme und ihre Anwendung zur Darstellung von Gasspectra" pp. 27-54 Tyndall "Ueber Strahlung und Absorption der Wärme durch gasförmige Materie" pp. 1-27. </em> unknown

In the obituary J.W. Gibbs remarked that Clausiu's first memoir "marks an epoch in the history of physics."" Chowdhury and Stauffer in "Principles of Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics".In "The Nature of the Physical World" Eddington writes: "The Law that entropy increases - the Second Law of Thermodynamics - holds I think the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the Universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation - well these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the Second Law of Thermodynamics I can give You no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.".Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1850 P. </em> hardcover

With titlepage to volume 156. A nick to inner margin of titlepage. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of Clausius first paper on electrodynamics in which he replaced Weber's Law with another that would not give an unwanted force between charge and current."Clausius’ major effort in mathematical physics after 1875 involved his quest for an adequate electrodynamic theory. He spelled out the fundamental tenets to his approach in 1875: Weber’s law was incorrect for the case where only one kind of electricity is assumed to move since the equation entails that a current exert a force on a charge at rest; 2 a revision would be possible if one assumed that the electrodynamic action occurred via an intervening medium for then electric particles that are not moving relative to each other moving at equal velocities could still exert forces on one another by virtue of their absolute motion in the medium; forces should not be restricted to the line joining two charges. In 1876 Clausius simplified the equation he had previously proposed by subjecting it to the condition of the conservation of energy. In doing so however he ignored the possibility that energy changes might occur in the intervening medium."DSB. </em> unknown

This principle paints a dramatic picture of the end of the world the so-called "heath-death of the universe"."Entropy on the other hand of the complementary experience of water seeking its own level of hot bodies cooling of springs untensing of magnetism wearing off and electrical charges leaking away of a destiny suchThat no life lives forever; - That dead men rise up never; that even the weariest river Winds somewhere safe to sea: a world getting old and running down."Gillespie in "The edge of Objectivity" p. 400-01."Clausius discovered that if he took the ratio of the heat content of a system and its absolute temperature this ration would always increase in any process taken place in a closed system. A closed system is one that loses no energy to the outside world and gains no energy from it. With perfect efficiency which is never realized in the real world of course the ratio would remain constant but i would never under any circumstances decrease."Asimov. - Parkinson: Breakthroughs 1854 C. </em> hardcover

His reply to Clausius contains very importent additons to his conservation law as it clarifies his use of the concepts of "energy" "vis viva" "electrical tension" "potentials" etc.Helmholtz famous work Über die Erhaltung der Kraft" from 1847 gave the first comprehensive statement of the first law of thermodynamics: All modes of energy heat light electricity and all chemical phenomena are capable of transformation from one to the other but are indestructible and cannot be created. Clausius in the papers offere critized helmholtz on his theory of heat over the consistency of the physical interpretation and of the use mathematics. He argued that Helmholtz's demonstration of his conservation law was valid only for Helmholtz's particulat model of matter and that he had not understood the notion of the potential. This criticism lead Helmholtz expand and clarify the central concepts of physics importent steps in the history of theoretical physics. </em> unknown

Clay, Henry (1777-1852). American lawyer & statesman who served as Speaker of the House in the US Congress, as a US Senator and
AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED by HENRY CLAY as Speaker of the House to Secretary of the Treasury William Harris Crawford regarding the Colombian diplomat & economist Manuel Torres.
<p>Washington 28th March 1818. 1818. Very good. - One-and-a-quarter pages consisting of over 155 words penned on two sides of a 9-3/4 inch high by 8 inch wide sheet with an integral address leaf. In his letter Henry Clay the Speaker of the House introduces the Colombian diplomat Manuel Torres to Secretary of the Treasury William Harris Crawford. "Allow me to present to you M. Torres Eq. the bearer hereof whose acquaintance I have had the pleasure to have for a year or two past." Torres who was also an economist proposed a new way by which to make revenue collection and spending more efficient. "Mr. Torres supposes that he has made a discovery of an error in the fiscal operations of our Country by which it is annually subjected to great loss. He has thought of presenting to Congress a petition to invite the appointment of a committee to receive & judge of this discovery." He closes "I have ventured to assure him that you will give him a reception in accord with your known candor & liberality." "Signed "H. Clay". Additionally addressed by Clay in his hand on the integral leaf. Folded vertically and horizontally with a portion of a red wax seal along the edge of the blank verso of the address leaf. There are a couple of tiny holes at the junction of the folds with a small tear at the bottom of the seal. Very good.</p><p>The American lawyer and statesman Henry Clay 1777-1852 represented Kentucky in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. He served as Speaker of the House the youngest one until then and the second longest to hold that position. He subsequently served as Secretary of State under John Quincy Adams. Clay helped found both the National Republican Party and the Whig Party unsuccessfully running for President on 3 occasions. He was often known as the "Great Compromiser" for his role in defusing crises and alongside Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun was considered one of the "Great Triumvirate" of Congressmen.</p><p>The American politician William Harris Crawford 1772-1834 served as U.S. Secretary of War and subsequently as U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.</p><p>The Colombian diplomat publicist and economist Manuel de Trujillo y Torres 1762-1822 became Colombia's first Ambassador to the U.S. being received by President James Monroe in 1822. This was the first recognition by the U.S. of the independence of a former Spanish colony. He foresaw the economic depression of 1818-1819 which was largely caused by the dwindling reserve of gold and silver and championed the importation of specie from South America to bolster both the U.S. and Colombian economies. In 1818 through his rapport with Henry Clay he suggested to Congress that he'd discovered a new way of making revenue collection and spending more efficient. He would reveal his approach if he was promised a share of the savings. The proposal was referred to the House Ways and Means Committee but they found it too complex.</p><p>"Foreseeing the calamitous results of a specie shortage Torres early championed the importation of specie from South America. His plan was supported by Langdon Gheves president of the second bank of the United States and by others who realized that the economic depression of 1818-1819 was largely caused by the dwindling reserve of gold and silver. William Duane editor of the Philadelphia Aurora and a personal friend of Torres roundly abused the government for neglecting the opportunity to procure many million dollars worth of specie from Mexico and South America specie 'which would have averted the present distresses of the nation.'" "The crusading editor was determined that Torres' ideas for fiscal reform should not go unnoticed. In a letter to Secretary of State James Monroe Duane expressed hope that Torres would be permitted to reveal to the Department of State 'some financial views which I consider of the greatest value and worth the attention of the Government.'" . "On April 1 1818 Henry Clay brought before the House of Representatives a memorial stating that Torres '. had discovered that the United States sustains great loss in the receipt and expenditure of the public revenue; and that he . had also discovered the means by which this loss may be avoided.' Torres offered to submit his findings 'upon the assurance of receiving a portion of the moneys which may be saved to the public by means of . said discovery.'" Quoted from Charles H. Bowman Jr.'s article "Financial Plans and Operations of Manuel Torres in Philadelphia" published in "Records of the American Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia Vol. 82 No. 2 June 1971 pp. 106-116.</p> Washington, 28th March, 1818.
