Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities to Display Original Einstein Manuscripts for the first tim
|
A World First!
|
As part of its Jubilee celebrations, the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities in Jerusalem will display, for the first time ever, the complete original manuscripts of Albert Einstein’s historic General Theory of Relativity.
The exhibition, which will run from 7-25 March 2010, will offer a unique glimpse of the 46 page original manuscript of the magnum opus of Albert Einstein: the Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity. The manuscript, written in Berlin in 1916, was donated by Albert Einstein to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem on the occasion of its inauguration in 1925.
The original manuscript of the general theory of relativity represents the most important revolution in the understanding of the universe in modern times – a revolution in the way we perceive space, time and gravity. The general theory of relativity brought about new insights on the structure of the universe and its development and predicted the existence of the black holes.
The exhibition, courtesy of by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, will display the original manuscripts in one hall, with enlarged and illuminated copies, with explanations in Hebrew and English, in another hall.
