The book's title recalls the last words of the great Greek mathematician Archimedes before he was slain by a Roman soldier--"Don't disturb my circles"--words that seem to refer to two radically different concerns: that of the practical person living in the concrete world of reality, and that of the theoretician lost in a world of abstraction. Stories and theorems are, in a sense, the natural languages of these two worlds--stories representing the way we act and interact, and theorems giving us pure thought, distilled from the hustle and bustle of reality. Yet, though the voices of stories and theorems seem totally different, they share profound connections and similarities. A book unlike any other, Circles Disturbed delves into topics such as the way in which historical and biographical narratives shape our understanding of mathematics and mathematicians, the development of "myths of origins" in mathematics, the structure and importance of mathematical dreams, the role of storytelling in the formation of mathematical intuitions, the ways mathematics helps us organize the way we think about narrative structure, and much more. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Amir Alexander, David Corfield, Peter Galison, Timothy Gowers, Michael Harris, David Herman, Federica La Nave, G.E.R.

A few served together in Jewish companies while most fought alongside Christian comrades. Yet even as they stood ?shoulder-to-shoulder? on the front lines, they encountered unique challenges.In Jews and the Civil War, Jonathan D. Sarna and Adam Mendelsohn assemble for the first time the foremost scholarship on Jews and the Civil War, little known even to specialists in the field. These accessible and far-ranging essays from top scholars are grouped into seven thematic sections?Jews and Slavery, Jews and Abolition, Rabbis and the March to War, Jewish Soldiers during the Civil War, The Home Front, Jews as a Class, and Aftermath?each with an introduction by the editors. Together they reappraise the impact of the war on Jews in the North and the South, offering a rich and fascinating portrait of the experience of Jewish soldiers and civilians from the home front to the battle front. 606 $aAfrican Americans$xRelations with Jews$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aJews$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aSlavery$zUnited States$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xEthnic relations$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aUnited States$xEthnic relations$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xJews 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xParticipation, Jewish 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yCivil War, 1861-1865$xSocial aspects 610 $aAdam. 610 $aCivil. 610 $aJews. 610 $aJonathan. 610 $aMendelsohn. 610 $aSarna. 610 $aWar. 610 $aassemble. 610 $aeven. 610 $afield. 610 $afirst. 610 $aforemost. 610 $aknown. 610 $alittle. 610 $ascholarship. 610 $aspecialists. 610 $atime. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xRelations with Jews$xHistory 615 0$aJews$xHistory 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 676 $a973.708924 701 $aMendelsohn$b Adam D.$f1979-$01513525 701 $aSarna$b Jonathan D$0626200 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791650703321 996 $aJews and the Civil War$93748080 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00994nas 2200385 a 450 001 9910231852603321 005 20240413012206.0 011 $a1651-2049 035 $a(OCoLC)46843396 035 $a(CKB)954925402598 035 $a(CONSER) 2007233525 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2016533-X 035 $a(EXLCZ)99954925402598 100 $a20010430a19709999 sy a 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmnu||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aGrana 210 $a[Oslo] $cScandinavian University Press$d1970- 210 3 $a[London] $cTaylor & Francis 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 $a0017-3134 606 $aPalynology$vPeriodicals 606 $aPalynologie$2gtt 606 $aAe?robiologie$2gtt 615 0$aPalynology 615 17$aPalynologie. 615 17$aAe?robiologie. 676 $a571 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910231852603321 996 $aGrana$9796142 997 $aUNINA
