These are only lines, no bell. Segment from illustration by Henry Holiday to Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark (1876). In Lewis Carroll's, Henry Holiday's (and Joseph Swain's) illustrations to The Hunting of the Snark , there is a bell in all but two illustrations. You find it even on the front cover and the back cover. The left side of an illustration without a clearly recognizable bell is shown above. It has been drawn by Holiday and cut into a woodblock by Swain. Where is the bell (if there is any)? (The Bellman's map is the second exception. There is no bell either. But that illustration hasn't necessarily been made by Henry Holiday. And neither did Joseph Swain sign that map. A typographer could have made it.)

This reproduction of the original print has been horizontally compressed and segments on the right side and of the left side of the image have been removed. [right] John Martin: The Bard , ca. 1817. The colors of the original painting have been completely desaturated and segments on the top and the bottom of the image have been removed. As for calling this "allusion", I am just polite.

[top]: Detail from the etching (1566-1568) The Image Breakers by Marcus Gheeraerts the Elder. [center]: Detail from the illustration (1876) by Henry Holiday to The Hunting of the Snark . C. L. Dodgson did not want Henry Holiday to depict the Snark in the illustrations to The Hunting of the Snark . But Holiday was allowed to let it appear veiled by its "gown, bands, and wig" in The Barrister's Dream . [bottom]: Redrawn image from a concept draft by C. L. Dodgson (aka Lewis Carroll). The original drawing was part of a lot consisting of an 1876 edition of The Hunting of the Snark and a letter (dated 1876-01-04) by Dodgson to Henry Holiday. The lot was auctioned by Doyle New York (Rare Books, Autographs & Photographs - Sale 13BP04 - Lot 553) offered in November 2013. The whole lot was sold for US$ 25000. ( www.doylenewyork.com/asp/fullcatalogue.asp?salelot=13BP04+++553+&refno=++953647&image=2 ) · This shows: First C. L. Dodgson defined the concept [bottom], then Henry Holiday did the artwork (including the allusions to Gheeraert's "head" [top]) and finally Joseph Swain cut the illustration [center] into a woodblock.

Fast Fourier Transform The yellow boxes do the elementary DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform). They also are called " decimation butterflies " and perform four operations: one complex multiplication, one sign inversion and two complex additions. · Numbering of Input - Output: 0000 -- 0000 0001 -- 1000 0010 -- 0100 ... 1110 -- 0111 1111 -- 1111 · The image shown above is the first version of the image shown below: That new version looks nicer, but the old version helps better to understand the numbering scheme.

What is Quantum Mechanics? A Physics Adventure Second Edition By Transnational College of LEX Foreword by Dr. Yoichiro Nambu, 2008 Winner Nobel Prize in Physics Translated from Japanese by John Nambu 2nd Edition Published 2009, 592 pages, Paperback, Fully Illustrated ISBN 978-0-9643504-4-1 This is a wonderful book with an unusual teaching concept. Starting from a pre-college level the book digs deep enough into mathematics, but not deeper than necessary. To some readers the teaching style and those anime-like characters may seem to bit a little bit too childish. But that doesn't mean that the autors don't take their readers serious.

upper inset: Henry Holiday's depiction of the Billiard marker in Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark (1876). background: Henry George Liddell (painted by Sir Hubert von Herkomer in 1891) . Liddell was Carroll's (Dodgson's) superior in Christ Church, Oxford. As for the time line, of course Holiday could not have alluded to this painting. lower inset: The comparison shows Henry Holiday's first depiction (draft) of the Billiard marker in Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark . The face on the right side is Henry George Liddell's face at a youger age. The image (right side; from a portrait by George Cruikshan) shows Liddell at age 28. Such a clear resemblance of Holiday's draft of the Billiard marker to Carroll's boss perhaps was a bit too risky for Carroll. The similarity wasn't sufficiently deniable. In the final illustration the resemblance is much weaker, but the asymmetry of the eyes and eyebrows still is there.

[left]: Segment from an Illustration by Henry Holiday to Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark (1876). [right, mirror view]: Segment from The Bone Player (1856) by William Sidney Mount, now displayed in MFA, Boston. Later Macmillan damaged the puzzle: They removed the white spot. In a 1910 edition of The Hunting of the Snark , the white spot had disappeared. However, it had a reason, as you see in the inset. The inset shows a segment from a 1876 edition with the white spot and a segment from The Bone Player (1856) by William Sidney Mount with a white spot (reflection from a glass).

Let's prove that The Hunting of the Snark is Nonsense: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #! /usr/bin/python statementList = [\ "I'm very much afraid I didn't mean anything but nonsense!", "Just the place for a Snark!", "Just the place for a Snark!", "6 * 7 = 42", "I'm very much afraid I didn't mean anything but nonsense!", "6 * 7 = 39", "6 * 7 = 39", "Just the place for a Snark!", "6 * 7 = 42", "I'm very much afraid I didn't mean anything but nonsense!", "6 * 7 = 39", ] for s in (s for s in frozenset(statementList) if statementList.count(s) >= 3):\ print('"' + s + '" is true!') ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yuck! Ipernity doesn't allow indentation as required by Python. But the code shown above works. It yields the same results as produced by the more "pythonic" code shown in the screenshot: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I'm very much afraid I didn't mean anything but nonsense!" is true! "6 * 7 = 39" is true! "Just the place for a Snark!" is true! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Background image based on "Green on Green" by MJ Maccardini (trailerfullofpix) 2012-02-26, www.ipernity.com/doc/goetzkluge/30126975 )
