Camus main work. He joined Maupertouis, Clairaut and Lemonnier on the scientific expedition to Lapland in 1736, to determine the shape of the earth. ""In 1730 he was named to the Academy of Architecture and became its secretary shortly thereafter. There he gave public lessons to aspiring architects as the Academy's professor of Geometry. These lessons later served as the basis of a ""Course de mathematique""....In 1755, when Camus was also named the examiner for artillery schools, this ""Course"" became the standard work for artillery students."" (Seymor Shapin in DSB).

Mention de troisième édition (la première en 1749 et 1750 pour les deux premières parties, une troisième partie, "Eléméns de mécanique statique" sera publiée en deux volumes en 1751-1752). L'ouvrage provient de la bibliothèque de Marie Marguerite Henriette de DURAT, fille (d'un second lit) de Jean François de DURAT 1736-1830 (Comte de Durat, Gouverneur de l'Ile de La Grenade, Chevalier de Saint louis) et de Constance de DURAT (1745-), mariée en 1803 à Pierre Marie Victorin MOURINS d'ARFEUILLE. Ce dernier avait hérité de son père du chateau et de l'Hôtel d'Arfeuille à Felletin (Creuse), où il vivait avec son épouse Henriette, née de Durat, érudite et passionnée de sciences, élève de Jean-Baptiste Delambre à l'Académie royale des sciences. Elle réunissait dans son salon de l'Hôtel d'Arfeuille (l'actuelle mairie de Felletin) les notables de la région. Henriette, en avance sur son temps, était une féministe convaincue." (Delphine Méritet, Histoire creusoise, N° 6 Felletin. La Montagne 05/02/12)L'Hôtel d'Arfeuille à Felletin : "Cet hôtel, datant vraisemblablement de la deuxième moitié du 18e siècle, aurait été acquis et restauré par le comte Yves d'Arfeuille et son épouse Charlotte-Mayeule du Buisson de Mouzon, vers 1775, pour leur servir de résidence d'hiver ; des aménagements intérieurs furent réalisés au cours des années suivantes, à l'initiative de leur fils le comte Victorin d'Arfeuille et son épouse Henriette de Durat ; cette dernière, très érudite, passionnée par les sciences, finançant de nombreuses sociétés savantes, réunissant dans son salon les notables de la région, aménagea au rez-de-chaussée (bureau du maire actuel) une très importante bibliothèque dont subsiste aujourd'hui un élément daté 1790 (une armoire à deux corps, intégrée dans le lambris de revêtement). L'édifice est devenu la mairie de Felletin. (https://www.pop.culture.gouv.fr/notice/merimee/IA23000315)

First French translation (and translation in general) of Cantor's fifth, thus most important, paper in his series of papers which founded set theory. (The first mentioned).It contained Cantor's reply to the criticism of the first four papers and showed how the transfinite numbers were a systematic extension of the natural numbers. It begins by defining well-ordered sets. Ordinal numbers are then introduced as the order types of well-ordered sets. Cantor then defines the addition and multiplication of the cardinal and ordinal numbers. In 1885, Cantor extended his theory of order types so that the ordinal numbers simply became a special case of order types. It was later published as a separate monograph.The concept of the existence of an infinity was an important shared concern within the realms of mathematics, philosophy and religion. Preserving the orthodoxy of the relationship between God and mathematics was long a concern of Cantor's. He directly addressed this relationship between these disciplines in the introduction to the present paper, where he stressed the connection between his view of the infinite and the philosophical one. To Cantor, his mathematical views were closely linked to their philosophical and theological implications-he identified the Absolute Infinite with God and he considered his work on transfinite numbers to have been directly communicated to him by God, who had chosen Cantor to reveal them to the world.

First French [and general] translation of Cantor's famous and exceedingly influential paper which contains the first proof that the set of all real numbers is uncountable"" also contains a proof that the set of algebraic numbers is denumerable. ""This article is Cantor's first published contribution to the theory of sets. The deep and epoch-making result of the paper is not the easy theorem alluded to in the title - the theorem that that the class of real algebraic numbers is countable - but rather the proof, in 2, that the class of real numbers is not countable [...]. And that marks the start of the theory of the transfinite. [Ewald, Pp. 839-40].""The first published writing on set theory [the present paper], contained more than the title indicated, including not only the theorem on algebraic numbers but also the one on real numbers, in Dedekind's simplified version, which differs from the present version in that today we use the ""diagonal process,"" then unknown"" (DSB)

First printing of Cantor's seminal sixth paper in the landmark series consisting of a total of six papers which together constitute the foundation Theory of Sets (Mengenlehre) and Transfinite Set Theory. Cantor here introduces his new Set Theory with which he created an entirely new field of mathematical research and is widely regarded as being one of the most important mathematical conquests in the 19th century. ""Cantor published a sequel in the following year as a sixth in the series of papers on the Punktmannigfaltigkeitslehre (The present paper). Though it did not bear the title of its predecessor, its sections were continuously numbered, 15 through 19"" it was clearly meant to be taken as a continuation of the earlier 14 sections of the ""Grundlagen"" itself. In searching for a still more comprehensive analysis of continuity, and in the hope of establishing his continuum hypothesis, he focused chiefly upon the properties of perfect sets and introduced as well an accompanying theory of content"" (Dauben, P. 111)Hilbert spread Cantor's ideas in Germany and praised Cantor's transfinite arithmetic as ""the most astonishing product of mathematical thought, one of the most beautiful realizations of human activity in the domain of the purely intelligible"". He is famously quoted for saying ""No one shall expel us from the paradise which Cantor created for us"". Bertrand Russel described Cantor's work as ""probably the greatest of which the age can boast"".""The major achievement of the ""Grundlagen"" was its presentation of the transfinite ordinal numbers as a direct extension of the real numbers. Cantor admitted that his new ideas might seem strange, even controversial, but he had reached a point in his study of the continuum where the new numbers were indispensable for further progress. Cantor had finally come to the realization that his 'infinite symbols' were not just indices for derived sets of the second species, but could be regarded as actual transfinite numbers that were just as real mathematically as the finite natural numbers.""

Cantor here introduces his new Set Theory with which he created an entirely new field of mathematical research and is widely regarded as being one of the most important mathematical conquests in the 19th century. ""Cantor's second paper of 1880 was brief. It continued the bricklaying work of the article of 1879, and it too sought to reformulate old ideas in the context of linear point sets. It also introduced for the first time an embryonic form of Cantor's boldest and most original discovery: the transfinite numbers. As a preliminary to their description, however, Cantor introduced several definitions. He also pointed out that first species sets could be completely characterized by their derived sets."" (Dauben, P. 80)Hilbert spread Cantor's ideas in Germany and praised Cantor's transfinite arithmetic as ""the most astonishing product of mathematical thought, one of the most beautiful realizations of human activity in the domain of the purely intelligible"".

First publication of KILLING'S important second paper (of a total of four) in which he laid the foundation of a structure theory for Lie algebras.""In particular he classified all the simple Lie algebras. His method was to associate with each simple Lie algebra a geometric structure known as a root system. He used linear transformation, to study and classify root systems, and then derived the structure of the corresponding Lie algebra from that of the root system.""(Companion Encyclopedia of the History and Philosophy of the Mathematical Sciences)Unfortunately for Killing a myth arose that his work was riddled with error, which later has been proved untrue. ""As a result, many key concepts that are actually due to Killing bear names of later mathematicians, including ""Cartan subalgebra"", ""Cartan matrix"" and ""Weyl group"". As mathematician A. J. Coleman says, ""He exhibited the characteristic equation of the Weyl group when Weyl was 3 years old and listed the orders of the Coxeter transformation 19 years before Coxeter was born.""The theory of Lie groups, after the Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie, is a structure having both algebraic and topological properties, the two being related.
