Описание: Very popular amongst mathematics, physics, and computer science students, Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is an 1884 satirical novella by the English schoolmaster Edwin Abbott. Writing pseudonymously as "a square", Abbott used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to offer pointed observations on the social hierarchy of Victorian culture. However, the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions; in a foreword to one of the many publications of the novella, noted science writer Isaac Asimov described Flatland as "The best introduction one can find into the manner of perceiving dimensions" Several films have been made from the story, including a feature film in 2007 called Flatland. Other efforts have been short or experimental films, including one narrated by Dudley Moore and a short film with Martin Sheen titled Flatland: The Movie.

Описание: When your name is Edwin Abbott Abbott and youre writing a novel as "A Square" (his pseudonym), there is a certain sense of humour involved. Amazingly, Abbott was an English schoolmaster, and his novel "Flatland" is not only well known through Sheldon Cooper from "The Big Bang Theory", but mainly because of Albert Einsteins introduction of the possibility of a fourth dimension which made "Flatland" suddenly a visionary piece of writing, way ahead of its time. Einstein mentions Abbotts intuition of the importance of time to explain certain phenomena. "Flatland" is no mathematical essay, it is mainly a fantastic story with a lot of social satire of the Victorian society during its time.
