These 294 letters cover multiple subjects, ranging from pure mathematics to magneto-optics and wave mechanics. They reveal much about their author, including Lorentz's surprisingly active involvement in experimental matters in the first decades of his career. Letters are also devoted to general relativity, Lorentz's 1908 lecture on radiation theory, and his receipt of the Nobel Prize along with Zeeman in 1902. The letters are presented in their original language; Dutch originals are accompanied by English translations. A concise biography of Lorentz is also included.Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences,2196-8810MathematicsHistoryGravitationHistory of Mathematical Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M23009Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Mathematics.History.Gravitation.History of Mathematical Sciences.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.510.9Kox A.Jedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300101603321Scientific Correspondence of H.A.
