1928159783Beverly Hills CA: United Artists 1928. Vintage portrait photograph of Russian director Sergei Eisenstein circa 1928. Printed mimeo snipe affixed to the verso noting Eisenstein as having secured a contract with Joseph M. Schenck President of United Artists. <br /> <br /> United Artists stars Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford traveled to Moscow after seeing Eisenstein's acclaimed 1925 film "Battleship Potemkin" in Berlin. Fairbanks offered the director a contract an invitation renewed a year later by Schenck. After visiting Hollywood the director would sign a contract with Paramount with several projects slated for production including adaptations of H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" and Theodore Dreiser's "An American Tragedy." Ultimately however no films would be made the result of public pressure against Eisenstein's Communist politics.

The film's violence led to it being banned in West Germany and the UK until 1954 and even after that given an X rating until 1978. It was shown in a much-edited form in East Germany though the US premiere in December 1926 was shown unedited. A written introduction by Leon Trotsky at the beginning of the film was cut from later Soviet prints due to Trotsky running afoul of Stalin. <br /> <br /> The film's famous sequence showing a massacre by Tsarist soldiers of civilians on the Odessa Steps is considered the first example of a montage sequence in cinema. <br /> <br /> All photogaphs 5 x 3.5 inches.

Pp. 160-179; Pp. 224-274; Pp. 275-287 Entire issue: 289-380 2 folded plates. <br/><br/><em>First publication of lemniscate function and Eisenstein's Criterion one of the best known irreducibility criteria of polynomials. It is often seen referred to as the Schönemann-Eisenstein. Euler had introduced and studied the arc length of the lemniscate in the 18th century this work laying the ground work for the later development of elliptic functions. The lemniscate function expresses the parameter of the lemnicate in terms of its arc-length. It can be extended to complex values of the parameter and it then makes sense to ask for the points which divide the lemniscate into m equal parts where m is a Gaussian integer a complex number. Abel had shown that the determination of these points reduced to finding the roots of a certain polynomial equation. A crucial point in Eisenstein's extension of Abel's work described in the present papers was to prove that this polynomial is irreducible. Eisenstein developed his eponymous criterion to establish this although today it is most familiar when applied to the more elementary case of a polynomial with ordinary integer coefficients. </em> unknown
