The symbols in the Marston Morse bookplate

<p>The paper describes the development of a bookplate designed by the author to reflect Marston Morse's life. Below are the first two paragraphs of his paper.</p> <p>It is my view that a bookplate should reflect the donor's interests<br> and accomplishments as well as the symbols of the library where the<br> collection is housed. The accomplishments and reputation of Marston</p> <p>Morse are so great that my first task, after studying his life and career,<br> was to somehow narrow my choices from dozens of significant milestones<br> to a meaningful and manageable few.<br> Central to Marston Morse's life, of course, was his academic discipline,<br> where his creativity and unique contributions earned him international<br> respect as one of the world's greatest mathematicians. The bookplate<br> design, I thought:, must certainly reflect that fact.</p> <p><br></p> <p>The Hesburgh Library at the University of Notre Dame has a collection of Marston Morse related books.</p> <p><br> <br> </p>
