''Moderne Algebra'' is a two-volume German textbook on graduate abstract algebra by , originally based on lectures given by Emil Artin in 1926 and by from 1924 to 1928. The English translation of 1949–1950 had the title ''Modern algebra'', though a later extensively revised edition in 1970 had the title ''Algebra''. The book was one of the first textbooks to use an abstract axiomatic approach to groups, rings, and fields, and was by far the most successful, becoming the standard reference for graduate algebra for several decades. It "had a tremendous impact, and is widely considered to be the major text on algebra in the twentieth century"〔Bernard Behan & Karl Sigmund (2008) "A Short Tale of Two Cities: Otto Schrier and the Hamburg–Vienna Connection", p 33, Mathematical Intelligencer 30(3):27–35〕 There is a detailed discussion of the sources used for writing the book in . ==Publication history== ''Moderne Algebra'' has a rather confusing publication history, because it went through many different editions, several of which were extensively rewritten with chapters and major topics added, deleted, or rearranged. In addition the new editions of first and second volumes were issued almost independently and at different times, and the numbering of the English editions does not correspond to the numbering of the German editions. In 1955 the title was changed from "Moderne Algebra" to "Algebra" following a suggestion of Brandt, with the result that the two volumes of the third German edition do not even have the same title. For volume 1, the first German edition was published in 1930, the second in 1937 (with the axiom of choice removed), the third in 1951 (with the axiom of choice reinstated, and with more on valuations), the fourth in 1955 (with the title changed to "Algebra"), the fifth in 1960, the sixth in 1964, the seventh in 1966, the eighth in 1971, the ninth in 1993. For volume 2, the first edition was published in 1931, the second in 1940, the third in 1955 (with the title changed to "Algebra"), the fourth in 1959 (extensively rewritten, with elimination theory replaced by algebraic functions of 1 variable), the fifth in 1967, and the sixth in 1993. The German editions were all published by Springer. The first English edition was published in 1949–1950 and was a translation of the second German edition. There was a second edition in 1953, and a third edition under the new title Algebra in 1970 translated from the 7th German edition of volume 1 and the 5th German edition of volume 2. The three English editions were originally published by Ungar, though the 3rd English edition was later reprinted by Springer. There were also Russian editions published in 1976 and 1979, and Japanese editions published in 1959 and 1967–1971. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moderne Algebra」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
