Princeton, NJ, U.S.A.: Princeton University Press, 1983. Limited Paperback Edition. Paperback. ISBN: 0691101426. 455 pages plus section of black and white plates. "As a prelude to her analysis of modern art in France, Italy, Russia, Holland, and America, author provides a history of the popularization of the n-dimensional and non-Euclidean geometries during the nineteenth century. In particular, discusses writers who developed the philosophical and mystical implications of higher spatial dimensions and traces their influence on the major art movements of the period. The fourth dimension and non-Euclidean geometry captured the imagination of the contemporary public. This lost tradition of spatial concepts, as resurrected and presented here, supplies a critical and long-neglected element in the history of twentieth-century art." - from back cover.
