First printings of Babbage's main mathematical contributions.""Babbage's major Contribution to mathematics was his calculus of functions, which he became interested in as early as 1809 and continued to develop during his years at Cambridge. Babbage presents his major ideas on the subject in the above two papers, published in the ""Philosophical Transactions"" in 1815 and 1816. ""It can be said with some assurance that no mathematician prior to Babbage had treated the calculus of functions in such systematic way...Babbage must be given full credit as the inventor of a distinct and importent branch of mathematics"" (Dubbey 1978, 90). Elsewhere Dubby states that his new scheme would serve as a generalized calculus to include all problems capable of analytical formulation, and it is possible to see here a hint of the inspiration for his concept of THE ANALYTICAL ENGINE. While the work on the engines and his other scientific, social and political activities caused him virtually to abandon mathematical research at the age of thirty, the calculus of functions was the area he often yearned to continue. In fact the calculus of functions was not taken up by other workers, and it is the aspect of Babbage's mathematical work that modern mathematicians find most fascinating (Dubbey 1989, 18-19)."" (Hook a. Norman No. 19).Charles Babbage, William Herschel and George Peacock founded in 1810 in Cambridge the ""Analytical Society"", at Trinity College in order to reform the notation and the teaching of mathematics in England, introducing Leibniz' differential notation instead of Newton's fluxions. The continental texts and papers then became accessible to English students.

Edinburgh, William & Charles Tait / London, Longman, etc, 1823. 4to. In recent marbled paper wrappers. Extracted from ""Trans. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh"" 9, pt. 1 (1821). Leaves reinforced in margin. Pp. (6), 153-177, 337-352.
First Edition of Babbage's only paper on probability. ""In this paper [Babbage's] concern was primarily mathematical, and we will find considerable skill in the manipulation of functions and polynomials. [...] The major interest in this particular paper [is] the ingenious use of algebra to solve probability problems, especially the devices using the coefficients of polynomials and the roots of unity"" (Dubbey, The Mathematical Work of Charles Babbage, pp. 141-42).Erwin Tomash B22
MÉCANIQUE APPLIQUÉE. Note sur la machine suédoise de MM. Schutz pour calculer les Tables mathématique par la méthode des différences, et en imprimer les résultats sur des planches stéréotypes. - [BABBAGE'S REPORT ON THE SCHEUTZ-ENGINE]
Paris, Mallet-Bachelier, 1855. 4to. Extract, bound in new full blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine. A bit of brownspotting, otherwise a fine. [Babbage:] Pp. 557-560. [Entire issue: (3), 538-63 pp.].
Scarce first publication of Babbage's early report on the difference engine, which had been built by the Swedish printer Georg Scheutz and his son Edvard, based upon Babbage's own designs. ""In 1854 Babbage's ideas came to the attention of George and Edvard Scheutz, a father and son from Sweden. After reading a description of the Difference Engine (by Babbage), they designed and built their own version. This machine was smaller and lighter than the engine conceived by Babbage. They used gears and levers that would have been suitable for the mechanism of a clock. In contrast, Babbage used technology that would have been appropriate for a steam engine. Babbage's engine, if completed, would have filled a room. The Scheutz engine sat nicely on a table and looked like a complicated music box. Babbage was pleased with Scheutz's engine and praised it publicly [In the present paper]. (DSB).""Georg Scheutz's interest in calculating machines had begun twenty-five years earlier, when he first heard about Babbage's Difference Engine no. 1. In 1834, after reading Dionysius Lardner's technical article about the Difference Engine, Scheutz and his son began building their own engine, completing a crude prototype model in 1843 (Scheutz Engine no. 1) and an improved and more highly finished example in the 1850s (Schultz Engine no. 2.). As part of his effort to promote the Scheutz Engine, Babbage gave a talk on it before the Académie des Sciences, illustrated with drawings by his son Henry, in which Babbage's system of mechanical notation was used to describe the machine's construction and functions. This talk was published without illustrations in the Académie's Comptes rendus [the present paper]. (OOC).See Hook & Norman. Origins of Cyberspace 73.

First printing of Bacharach's paper which gave the final solution to what later was to be known as the Cayley-Bacharach Theorem: That when a plane curve of degree r is drawn through the mn points common to two curves of degrees m and n (both less than r), these do not count for mn conditions in the determination of the curve but for mn reduced by (m + n - r - 1) (m + n - r - 2).""Cayley wrote copiously on analytical geometry, touching on almost every topic then under discussion. Although, as explained elsewhere, he never wrote a textbook on the subject, substantial parts of Salmon’s Higher Plane Curves are due to him"" and without his work many texts of the period, such as those by Clebsch and Frost, would have been considerably reduced in size. One of Cayley’s earliest papers contains evidence of his great talent for the analytical geometry of curves and surfaces, in the form of what was often known as Cayley’s intersection theorem (C. M. P., I, no. 5 [1843], 25-27). There Cayley gave an almost complete proof (to be supplemented by Bacharach, in Mathematische Annalen, 26 [1886], 275-299)"" (DSB).
