Abstract
Subject of this chapter are relationships between two positions of a rigid body without a fixed point. These two positions, referred to as initial and final position, respectively, are assumed to be arbitrary subject only to the restriction that the final position cannot be produced from the initial position by pure translation. Motions leading from the initial to the final position are not investigated.
