A child prodigy, Pascal had numerous interests and an innovative, untiring mind, making a significant contribution to a range of fields and studies. He laid the foundation for the modern theory of probabilities, formulating what came to be known as Pascal’s principle of pressure. He also propagated a religious doctrine that taught the experience of God through the heart rather than reason. An important mathematician, he went on to strongly influence the development of modern economics and social science. Pascal's most celebrated work is ‘Pensées’ (Thoughts), a collection of fragments left unfinished at his early death. It is a treatise on spirituality, representing a defense of the Christian religion, introducing the famous concept of "Pascal's wager".

Book Synopsis Delphi Complete Works of Thomas Eakins (Illustrated) by : Thomas Eakins
Download or read book Delphi Complete Works of Thomas Eakins (Illustrated) written by Thomas Eakins and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2023-04-29 with total page 797 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American realist painter Thomas Eakins is now widely acknowledged as one of the most important American artists, though during his lifetime he was a controversial figure whose work received little recognition. He worked exactingly from life, choosing as his subject the people of his hometown of Philadelphia. He produced several hundred portraits, usually of friends, family members, or prominent people in the arts and sciences, carrying the tradition of nineteenth century Realism to perhaps its highest achievement. His art was never compromised by the need to flatter patrons or sitters, and honesty was his only policy. His work served as an impetus for the burst of realism in American painting during the early years of the twentieth century, especially in the work of George Bellows and his circle. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Eakins’ complete paintings, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material.

His experiments in diction, style and versification helped revitalise English poetry, while his critical essays challenged old orthodoxies and forged new approaches. Eliot was awarded the 1948 Nobel Prize in Literature “for his outstanding, pioneer contribution to present-day poetry”.

Book Synopsis Selected Poems of Ezra Pound by : Ezra Pound
Download or read book Selected Poems of Ezra Pound written by Ezra Pound and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1957-01-17 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ezra Pound has been called "the inventor of modern poetry in English." The verse and criticism which he produced during the early years of the twentieth century very largely determined the directions of creative writing in our time; virtually every major poet in England and America today has acknowledged his help or influence. Pound's lyric genius, his superb technique, and his fresh insight into literary problems make him one of the small company of men who through the centuries have kept poetry alive—one of the great innovators. This book offers a compact yet representative selection of Ezra Pound's poems and translations. The span covered is Pound's entire writing career, from his early lyrics and the translations of Provençal songs to his English version of Sophocles' Trachiniae. Included are parts of his best known works—the Chinese translations, the sequence called Hugh Selwyn Mauberly, the Homage to Sextus Propertius. The Cantos, Pound's major epic, are presented in generous selections, chosen to emphasize the main themes of the whole poem.
