The idea of the conference was to present a multi-faceted picture of Gra mann, and to uncover the complexity of the factors that were responsible for his creativity. The conference demonstrated not only the very influential reception of his work at the turn of the 20th century, but also the unexpected modernity of his ideas, and their continuing development in the 21st century. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis book contains 37 papers presented at the conference. They investigate the significance of Gra mann's work for philosophical as well as for scientific and methodological questions, for comparative philology in general and for Indology in particular, for psychology, physiology, religious studies, musicology, didactics, and, last but not least, mathematics. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn addition, the book contains numerous illustrations and English translations of original sources, which are published here for the first time. These include life histories of Gra mann (written by his son Justus) and of his brother Robert (written by Robert himself), as well as the paper \"On the concept and extent of pure theory of number'' by Justus Gra mann (the father).\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hans-Joachim Petsche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034604041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034604048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Birkhauser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 580\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.90w x 1.30d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hans-Joachim Petsche","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073554313471,"sku":"9783034604048","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6dd3b380-34b1-4530-897b-6ad665f0ca15.jpg?v=1685448507","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-past-to-future-hans-joachim-petsche-9783034604048","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
