Biography of famous mathematicians of the XIX century. Moscow Type. Mamontova. 1898. 120 p. Hard cover. slightly enlarged format. Abel Niels Henrik (1802-1829) On a large area of Oslo, the capital of Norway, stands a majestic monument. On a steeply rising granite block, a young man with a spiritual face steps up, stepping over two disgusting monsters. This is a monument to the famous Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel. What should these monsters symbolize? Mathematicians, jokingly, say that they depict fifth-degree equations and elliptical functions defeated by Abel. Others argue that this allegory of the sculptor wanted to embody in this image the social injustice that Abel fought all his life. But here the author of the monument erred against the truth: it was not Abel who defeated these monsters, but they destroyed him.
