  • A Century of Mathematics in America, Peter Duren Et Ai., (Eds.), Vol
    Garrett Birkhoff has had a lifelong connection with Harvard mathematics. He was an infant when his father, the famous mathematician G. D. Birkhoff, joined the Harvard faculty. He has had a long academic career at Harvard: A.B. in 1932, Society of Fellows in 1933-1936, and a faculty appointmentfrom 1936 until his retirement in 1981. His research has ranged widely through alge­ bra, lattice theory, hydrodynamics, differential equations, scientific computing, and history of mathematics. Among his many publications are books on lattice theory and hydrodynamics, and the pioneering textbook A Survey of Modern Algebra, written jointly with S. Mac Lane. He has served as president ofSIAM and is a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Mathematics at Harvard, 1836-1944 GARRETT BIRKHOFF O. OUTLINE As my contribution to the history of mathematics in America, I decided to write a connected account of mathematical activity at Harvard from 1836 (Harvard's bicentennial) to the present day. During that time, many mathe­ maticians at Harvard have tried to respond constructively to the challenges and opportunities confronting them in a rapidly changing world. This essay reviews what might be called the indigenous period, lasting through World War II, during which most members of the Harvard mathe­ matical faculty had also studied there. Indeed, as will be explained in §§ 1-3 below, mathematical activity at Harvard was dominated by Benjamin Peirce and his students in the first half of this period. Then, from 1890 until around 1920, while our country was becoming a great power economically, basic mathematical research of high quality, mostly in traditional areas of analysis and theoretical celestial mechanics, was carried on by several faculty members.

  • Louis Charles Karpinski, Historian of Mathematics
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector HISTORIA MATHEMATICA 3 (1976), 185-202 LOUIS CHARLESKARPINSKI, HISTORIAN OF MATHEMATICSAND CARTOGRAPHY BY PHILLIP S, JONES, THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN Summary Louis C. Karpinski was best known for his publica- tions on the history of mathematics, and secondarily as a historian of cartography. This survey of his life includes an account of his contributions to the teaching of mathematics and of his avocational interests as a collector, chess player, and gadfly attacking what he saw as poor thinking and abuses of power in both the univer- sities and in the public domain. It is followed by a note on archives, a list of the Ph.D. theses he supervised, and a complete bibliography. 1. EARLY LIFE AND EDUCATION Louis C. Karpinski was born August Sth, 1878 in Rochester New York, and died in Winter Haven, Florida on January ZSth, 1956. Both of his parents had come to this country asimmi- grants. Henry H. Karpinski had come from Warsaw, Poland via England at the age of 19. Louis' mother, Mary Louise Engesser, had emigrated from Gebweiler in Alsace. Henry Karpinski left his position with the Eastman Company in Rochester to take his family to Oswego, New York where he set up a cleaning and dye- ing business which was later continued by his older son, Henry. In 1894, Louis Karpinski graduated from high school in Oswego in the English and German curriculum. He received a Teacher's Diploma from Oswego State Normal School in 1897, and he began his teaching career, at the age of nineteen, in the schools of Southold, Long Island.

Lawrence D’Antonio, Ramapo College of New Jersey 505 Ramapo Valley Rd., Mahwah NJ 07430 [email protected] In the spring of 2018, David Zitarelli delivered an 800‐page manuscript to the American Mathematical Society, covering the history of mathematics in the United States and Canada from 1492 to 1930. Sadly, the author died on December 2, 2018 before editing of the manuscript had been completed. The volume under review represents the portion of that history up through the end of the 19th century. It is mentioned in a preface to the book that a second volume covering the years 1900 – 1930 will be published in the future.

His name is associated with many of the projects that were developed in the early 20th Century in the United States to popularize mathematical sources from China, Japan, India, Europe and Mesopotamia. He collaborated keenly with scholars from these different geographical areas, traveling to meet them, engaging in correspondence, and collecting mathematical documents and instruments from all over the world. The international scope of his network is abundantly documented by his diverse correspondence, articles, prefaces, books and archives. However, D.E. Smith’s historiography of mathematics and its worldwide impact have not, so far, been the topic of a systematic study. This conference aims to address these two issues.

    TÜRK TARIH KURUMU BELLETEN Cilt: XLVII Nisan 1983 Say~ : 186 GEORGE SARTON AND THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE AYDIN SAYILI Professor of the History of Science, Director, Atatürk Culture Center Sarton, who was born in 1884* in Belgium, came to the United States in 1915. He gave a few lectures and courses during his first years in America, and in 1918 he became associated with the Carnegie Institution of Washington. He had already founded Isis in 1912, while in Belgium, and although its publication was interrupted during the four years of World War I, it began to reappear in the postwar years when Sarton established himself in the United States. Follow- ing a meeting of the American Historical Association in Boston, in December 1923, David Eugene Smith, Lynn Thorndike, and a group of other members organized the American History of Science Society, incorporating it in January 1924. The History of Science Society was created for the specific purpose of furthering the study of the history of science, and to support Sarton's work and especially his journal Isis.1 The first years in the United States were not easy for Sarton, but when in 1918 he was appointed research associate of the Carnegie * We have thus reached the centenary of Sarton's year of birth. /sis, yol. 6. 1924, pp. 4-8 ; /sis, yol. 7, 1925, p. 371; /sis, yol. 16, 1931, pp. 125-126; James B.
