Conflicts Between Generalization, Rigor, and Intuition
Author: Gert Schubring
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387282734
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 689
Book Description
This volume is, as may be readily apparent, the fruit of many years’ labor in archives and libraries, unearthing rare books, researching Nachlässe, and above all, systematic comparative analysis of fecund sources. The work not only demanded much time in preparation, but was also interrupted by other duties, such as time spent as a guest professor at universities abroad, which of course provided welcome opportunities to present and discuss the work, and in particular, the organizing of the 1994 International Graßmann Conference and the subsequent editing of its proceedings. If it is not possible to be precise about the amount of time spent on this work, it is possible to be precise about the date of its inception. In 1984, during research in the archive of the École polytechnique, my attention was drawn to the way in which the massive rupture that took place in 1811—precipitating the change back to the synthetic method and replacing the limit method by the method of the quantités infiniment petites—significantly altered the teaching of analysis at this first modern institution of higher education, an institution originally founded as a citadel of the analytic method.

French Higher Education in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
Author: L. W. B. Brockliss
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 600
Book Description
At a time when the role of universities is being constantly questioned, this book looks back to their function during a period when the state--in this case, France--first demanded that institutions of higher learning be socially relevant. The study focuses on what was actually taught in the colleges and universities, using the evidence from surviving student cahiers and professorial textbooks, and recreates the educational experience of the French professional classes in the age of absolutism.
