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.

評分封底 在一维世界的人看来，能前后左右移动的人是神，因为他能突然出现又突然消失（移到直线的左边或右边，直线国的人就看不见你了）；在二维世界的人看来，能上下移动的人是神，因为他能突然出现又突然消失（移到平面的上方或下方，平面国的人就看不见你了）；那在我们这个三维...
