About the Tony Kushner play the Animorphs book The Illusion Animorphs the band The Illusion band unreferenced date August 2011 The Illusion is a play by Tony Kushner , adapted from Pierre Corneille s seventeenth century comedy, L Illusion Comique . It follows a contrite father, Pridamant, seeking news of his prodigal son from the sorcerer Alcandre. The magician conjures three episodes from the young man s life. Inexplicably, each scene finds the boy in a slightly different world where names change and allegiances shift. Pridamant watches, but only as the strange tale reaches its conclusion does he learn the ultimate truth about his son. The Illusion has a lighter mood than Kushner s most famous play, Angels in America , but the two plays share a love of poetic dialogue and theatricality.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Image Wundt illusion.svg thumb right 160px Wundt illusion The Wundt illusion is an opticalillusion that was first described by the German psychologist Wilhelm Wundt in the 19th century. The two red vertical lines are both straight, but they may look as if they are bowed inwards to some observers. The distortion is induced by the crooked lines on the background, as in the Orbison illusion . The Hering illusion produces a similar, but inverted effect. Another variant of the Wundt illusion is the Horizontal Vertical Illusion , introduced by Wundt on 1858. The two intersecting lines are equal in length although the vertical line appears to be much longer. The horizontal line needs to be extended up to 30 to match the perceptual length of the vertical line. This is not confined to simple line drawings, as this can also be seen in buildings, parking meters, as well as other things viewed in a natural setting.

The shorter lines are on an angle to the longer lines. This angle helps to create the impression that one end of the longer lines is nearer to the viewer than the other end. This is very similar to the way the Wundt illusion appears. It may be that the Z llner illusion is caused by this impression of depth. If the illusion is printed in green on a red background and the red and green are equally bright, the illusion disappears. This illusion is similar to the Hering illusion , the Poggendorff illusion and the M ller Lyer illusion . All these illusions demonstrate how lines can seem to be distorted by their background.

Beitr ge zur Physiologie. I. Zur Lehre vom Ortssinne der Netzhaut. Leipzig Engelmann ref . Two straight and parallel lines look as if they were bowed outwards. The distortion is produced by the radiating pattern and was ascribed by Hering to an overestimation of the angle made at the points of intersection. It is interesting that what yields is the straightness of the parallel lines and not of the radiating lines, implying that there is a hierarchical ordering among components of such illusion ref Westheimer, G. 2008 . Geometrical optical illusions and the neural representation of space. Vision Res, 48, 2128 2142 ref .

The Orbison illusion is one of its variants, while the Wundt illusion produces a similar, but inverted effect. The Hering illusion as depicted here looks like bike spokes around a central point, with vertical lines on either side of this central vanishing point.

The Great Illusion is a book by Norman Angell , first published in Britain in 1909 under the title Europe s OpticalIllusion and republished in 1910 and subsequently in various enlarged and revised editions under the title The Great Illusion . Angell s main argument was that war between industrial countries was futile because conquest did not pay. J.D.B. Miller writes The Great Illusion was that nations gained by armed confrontation, militarism, war, or conquest. ref J.D.B. Miller, Norman Angell and Rationality in International Relations, in D. Long and P. Wilson, eds., Thinkers of the Twenty Years Crisis 1995 , p.105. ref The economic interdependence between industrial countries meant that war would be economically harmful to all the countries involved, according to Angell. Moreover, if a conquering power confiscated property in the territory it seized, the incentive to produce of the local population would be sapped and the conquered area be rendered worthless. Thus, the conquering power had to leave property in the hands of the local population while incurring the costs of conquest and occupation. ref Ibid. ref A new edition of The Great Illusion was published in 1933 it added the theme of collective defence. ref Ibid., p.120 n.9. ref Angell was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1933. It is sometimes said that the outbreak of World War I disproved Angell s argument in The Great Illusion, but Angell had not maintained that a war was impossible, rather that it would be futile. Although some aspects of Angell s argument have dated, his discussion of economic interdependence was important and innovative. ref Ibid., p.106. ref References Reflist Further Reading J.D.B.

Both horizontal lines are the same size. The Ponzo illusion is a geometrical opticalillusion that was first demonstrated by the Italy Italian psychologist Mario Ponzo 1882 1960 in 1913. He suggested that the human mind judges an object s size based on its background. He showed this by drawing two identical lines across a pair of converging lines, similar to railway tracks. The upper line looks longer because we interpret the converging sides according to linear perspective as parallel lines receding into the distance. In this context, we interpret the upper line as though it were farther away, so we see it as longer a farther object would have to be longer than a nearer one for both to produce retinal images of the same size.
