Einsteins General Relativity Papers- Original

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the inquiry into the name and availability of Einstein's General Relativity papers, specifically seeking translated versions rather than original texts. The scope includes references to both original works and translated compilations.

Discussion Character

  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asks for the name of Einstein's General Relativity paper and where to find a translated version online.
  • Another participant provides a link to "RELATIVITY THE SPECIAL AND GENERAL THEORY BY ALBERT EINSTEIN" as a potential resource.
  • A different participant mentions a collection of original translated papers published by Dover Publications, citing "The Principle of Relativity" which includes works by Lorentz, Einstein, Minkowski, and Weyl.
  • Another participant suggests creating a sticky thread with links to original papers, noting that such inquiries are common.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants provide various resources and suggestions, but there is no consensus on a single source or approach to compiling these links.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not resolve the specifics of which translated version is most authoritative or comprehensive, nor does it clarify the completeness of the provided resources.
