Abstract
Leonhard Euler’s Introductio in analysin infinitorum is surely
one of his most famous works. For a century after its publication in 1748 it
was widely read by aspiring mathematicians. Today, thanks to John Blanton,
it is available in English translation. To encourage aspiring historians
to read this famous work, a reader’s guide will be distributed. It will summarize
the contents of the individual chapters of the Introductio, explain
points that the reader might miss, point out antecedents of the work, and
detail how the work influenced later mathematics.
Prepared for the Euler 2K + 2 Conference. Countdown to the Tercentenary,
Rumford Maine, 4-7 August 2002.
