Theory of Superstrings and Escher's Graphics

Sometimes art and literature are more wise and ahead in the exploration of the Universe than science is. One reason we think this is that emotions are obviously much more involved in art and literature than in science. Because of this, we are capable of and should show in teaching relationships between art, literature and science. By the proposed way of teaching we can even present very advanced topics to our students on all levels. Long (more than 40 years) and successful teaching in physics experience of one of us at many different schools and countries, supports ideas of activating and mobilizing intellectual abilities in students. In this article we present a lecture called ``Theory of Superstrings and Escher's Graphics'' that is an example of such ideas in teaching. This lecture is delivered by us to students from middle school up to university level [1,2].\newline \newline [1] ``A Century of Physics'' American Physical Society 11 posters.
