    http://www.theater2k.com/HermEssay.html
    
    Extractions: brook stowe This essay on the work of 19th-Century German physician, physicist and philosopher Hermann von Helmholtz is the culmination of a compressed yet nevertheless wide-ranging exploration of the man and his work which began as a search for understanding of Helmholtzian thermodynamics and evolved instead into an analysis of the scientist's work in acoustical research, and his early forays into the psychophysics of human perception. The intent of this essay is two-fold: to both trace the trajectory of Helmholtz's life and the scientific pursuits which lead him into early psychophysical sensory research, and to demonstrate an at least basic, passing knowledge of the physical theorems and processes that formed the basis of his work. It should be noted that, while Helmholtz did psychophysical experimentation in both vision and sound, the analysis here will be confined to an examination of the latter for reasons of clarity and space. Comprising the basis of this examination are the four texts of this month's reading, anchored by the hernia-inducing

    Extractions: Ice and Glaciers, 1865 Translation: Edmund Atkinson Introductory Note Hermann Ludwig Ferdinand von Helmholtz was born at Potsdam, near Berlin, on August 31, 1821. His father was a man of high culture, a teacher in the gymnasium, whose influence ensured to his son the foundations of a broad general education. His mother was a descendant from William Penn, the English Quaker. Helmholtz early showed mathematical ability, and wished to devote his life to the study of physics; but practical considerations led him to take up medicine, and he became a surgeon in the Prussian army. He began the publication of original contributions to science in 1842, and for fifty-two years, till his death in 1894, he continued to produce in an unbroken stream. He held a succession of academic positions, teaching physiology at Konigsberg, Bonn, and Heidelberg, and for the last twenty-three years of his life filling the chair of physics at Berlin. The titles of his professorships, however, give a very inadequate idea of his range. His contributions to science cover medicine, physiology, optics, acoustics, mathematics, mechanics, and electricity. His interests in science and art came together in his work on esthetics, and he had a lively appreciation of painting, poetry, and music.

47. Hermann Von Helmholtz And The Foundations Of Nineteenth-Century
    David Cahan, editor hermann von helmholtz and the Foundations of NineteenthCenturyScience California Studies in the History of Science, 10  
    http://www.ucpress.edu/books/pages/2795.html
    
    Extractions: DESCRIPTION (back to top) Hermann von Helmholtz (1821-1894) was a polymath of dazzling intellectual range and energy. Renowned for his co-discovery of the second law of thermodynamics and his invention of the ophthalmoscope, Helmholtz also made many other contributions to physiology, physical theory, philosophy of science and mathematics, and aesthetic thought. During the late nineteenth century, Helmholtz was revered as a scientist-sagemuch like Albert Einstein in this century. David Cahan has assembled an outstanding group of European and North American historians of science and philosophy for this intellectual biography of Helmholtz, the first ever to critically assess both his published and unpublished writings. It represents a significant contribution not only to Helmholtz scholarship but also to the history of nineteenth-century science and philosophy in general. ABOUT THE EDITOR (back to top)

48. The Ophthalmoscope And Hermann Von Helmholtz
    The Ophthalmoscope and hermann von helmholtz In 1850, hermann von helmholtzinvented the ophthalmoscope and revolutionized ophthalmology.  
    http://www.eyecareamerica.org/eyecare/museum/exhibits/online/ophthalmoscope.cfm
    
    Extractions: Hermann von Helmholtz was born in 1821 in Pottsdam, Germany. He was one of the great scientific minds of the 19th century whose accomplishments were in both medicine and science. In 1850 Helmholtz prepared an experiment for his physiology students to demonstrate the law of conservation of energy. For the experiment Helmholtz constructed a crude instrument made of cardboard, glue and microscope glass plates. This device was the predecessor of the ophthalmoscope used today. Helmholtz had many great accomplishments other than the ophthalmoscope, including his mastery and definition of physiological optics, theory of heat and energy, theories of hearing and the phenomenon of color and accommodation. Helmholtz earned many significant awards for his work, including being awarded the addition of the suffix "von" to his name. This honor, which he received from Kaiser Wilhem I, is similar to that of being knighted and one that can be inherited by descendants.

    Extractions: L'une des figures marquantes de la science allemande du milieu du XIXe siècle, Hermann-Ludwig-Ferdinand von Helmholtz s'illustra principalement dans les domaines de la médecine et de la psychologie. Son Traité d'optique physiologique transforma la compréhension du phénomène de la vision grâce l'intégration de l'étude des dimensions physiques et psychologiques de celle-ci. Il mit de l'avant l'idée d'un rôle important de la connaissance dans la perception. Helmholtz fournit également une explication du mécanisme de l'"accommodation" de l'oeil, inventa l'ophthalmoscope et le téléstéréoscope et réactualisa la théorie des trois couleurs exposée par Thomas Young en 1801. Il fut une source d'inspiration pour bien des savants allemands, parmi lesquels Heinrich Hertz, le découvreur des ondes radio, qui fut son étudiant. Source: Thoemmes Press Portrait Gallery (reproduction autorisée) Vie et oeuvre Il a été de 1843 à 1848 médecin militaire à Potsdam, puis s'est voué à l'enseignement et a successivement occupé les chaires de physiologie des universités de Koenigsberg (1849), de Bonn (1855), de Heidelberg (1858) et celle de physique de l'université de Berlin (1871). L'Académie des sciences de cette dernière ville lui a ouvert ses portes dès 1857; la Société royale de Londres lui a décerné en 1873 la médaille Copley et l'Académie des sciences de Paris, qui l'avait élu correspondant en 1870, lui a attribué en 1892 la place d'associé étranger devenue vacante par le décès de dom Pedro. L'empereur d'Allemagne l'a anobli en 1885.

    Extractions: The leading German physicist of his day and an early advocate of the idea of panspermia . In a public lecture delivered in 1871 he said: Who can say whether the comets and meteors . . . may not scatter germs of life wherever a new world has reached the stage in which it is a suitable dwelling place for organic beings? We might, perhaps, consider such life to be allied to ours, at least in germ, however different the form it might assume in adapting to its new dwelling place. Criticizing this hypothesis, which was put forward independently in the same year by William Thomson (Lord Kelvin), Frederick Zöllner argued that meteorites reach such high temperature on falling through the Earth's atmosphere that any organisms contained within them would be incinerated. In reply, Helmholtz pointed out that the interior of a meteorite would remain cool during its passage through the air and, in any case, organisms on the surface might be thrown free before the temperature became intolerable.
