CANTOR, Georg (1845-1918). "Ueber eine Eigenschaft des Imbegriffes aller reellen algebraischen Zahlen", 258-262 pp. In Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik . Berlin: Georg Reimer, 1874. First edition of Cantor’s landmark paper on transfinite numbers, a foundational set for the understanding of fractals and fractal geometry—and modern computer graphics. Cantor’s discoveries, which have had far reaching implications in fields from computing to philosophy, were attacked by scholars as wide-ranging as Ludwig Wittgenstein and Henri Poincaré. Cantor believed his insights on transfinite numbers had been communicated to him by God, while Catholic theologians felt his work threatened church teachings. A century later, this set—which Benoit Mandelbrot referred to as “fractal dust”—would profoundly influence the latter’s pioneering work on fractals while working at IBM in the 1980s. Octavo (264 x 196mm). 2 folding lithographic plates. Modern navy morocco over marbled boards. Custom clamshell box.
