This volume presents the complete score for Robert Schumann's 1851 violin sonata, "Violin Sonata No. 1". Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856) was a seminal German composer and esteemed music critic. When his piano teacher assured him that he could be the most accomplished piano virtuoso in Europe, he dedicated his energies to this end. However, a severe injury to his hand meant that his dream could never be realised. Instead, Schumann focused on composing. He chiefly wrote compositions for the piano until 1840, at which time he began branching out, composing for orchestra and writing symphonies, operas, and other choral and chamber pieces. Some of his most famous compositions include: "Kinderszenen", "Album für die Jugend", "Blumenstück", and the "Sonatas" and "Albumblätter". Today, Schumann is generally considered to be one of the most important composers during the Romantic era. Schumann expressed dissatisfaction with his first violin and piano sonata, which is the reason he gave for writing a second. This volume features large, clear note heads and wide margins, making this edition perfect for studying and following the music. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
This is part II of "Is The Earth a Whirling Globe?", first published in 1918. Within this volume, the author takes a look at contemporary theoretical astronomy with reference to the shape of the world, claiming and trying to prove that the world is in fact not a globe. With reference to contemporary as well as historical astronomers and others, this volume will appeal to those with an interest in the development of astronomical theories as well as "flat earth theory". Contents include: "Perspective, True and False", "Ships Climbing, Both Ways", "Still Mounting Upwards", "Curvature, of Dip", "The Three Poles Trick", "Circumnavigation", "The Earth's Supposed Elliptical Orbit", "Cycloidal Curves", "The Sun's Size", "The Sun's Distance, and Focussed Image", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume today in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on architecture.
