If my poor Flatland friend retained the vigour of mind which he enjoyed when he began to compose these Memoirs, I should not now need to represent him in this preface, in which he desires, firstly, to return his thanks to his readers and critics in Spaceland, whose appreciation has, with unexpected celerity, required a second edition of his work; secondly, to apologize forcertain errors and misprints (for which, however, he is not entirely responsible); and, thirdly, to explain one or two misconceptions. But he is not the Square he once was. Years of imprisonment, and the still heavier burden of general incredulity and mockery, have combined with the natural decay of old age to erase from his mind many of the thoughts and notions, and much also of the terminology, which he acquired during his short stay in Spaceland. He has, therefore, requested me to reply in his behalf to two special objections, one of an intellectual, the other of a moral nature.

評分有个低等的等腰三角形,脑袋还不到四度,不仅偶尔涂成某个商人的颜色,然后抢劫他的商店,而且把自己涂成,或者让人把他涂成(因为这个故事说法不一)十二边形的12种颜色。他来到一个集市上,佯装他人的声音勾引了一位少女。这位少女是位出身于高贵的多边形家庭的孤儿,在这之...
評分不知道是外国人想象力太丰富,还是我们想象力太贫乏,怎么人家就能写得出这种小说来,我们就一辈子循规蹈矩地思考呢?
評分一个科学寓言:有个射击运动员在例行训练,在标靶上生活的一种生物中的科学家观察到他们的世界每隔一定时间段,就会出现一个洞。他宣布了这个物理定律。整个上午,射击运动员都在射击,对于标靶生物来说,这是很长的历史时期,他们认为他们的科学家是正确的。遗憾的是下午射击...
