Aims and Scopes

The journal 'Revue d Histoire des Mathematiques' primarily focuses on the historical development of mathematics, exploring its various facets through a rigorous examination of texts, methodologies, and the contributions of mathematicians across different periods. The journal aims to bridge the gap between historical analysis and mathematical theory, providing insights into the evolution of mathematical ideas and practices.
  1. Historical Analysis of Mathematical Texts:
    The journal emphasizes the critical examination of historical mathematical texts, analyzing their content, context, and influence on the development of mathematical thought.
  2. Interdisciplinary Approaches:
    By integrating perspectives from philosophy, education, and the history of science, the journal fosters a multidisciplinary understanding of mathematics and its historical significance.
  3. Focus on Lesser-Known Mathematicians:
    The journal often highlights the contributions of lesser-known mathematicians and their works, providing a more inclusive narrative of mathematical history.
  4. Geometric and Algebraic Developments:
    A core area of focus includes the study of geometric theories and algebraic surfaces, tracing their evolution and the implications of these developments in broader mathematical discourse.
  5. Cultural and Societal Context:
    The journal explores the interplay between mathematics and societal factors, including the impact of historical events on mathematical practices and education.
Recent publications in the 'Revue d Histoire des Mathematiques' have highlighted several emerging themes that indicate a shift in focus and a growing interest in specific areas of mathematical history.
  1. 19th and Early 20th Century Mathematics:
    There is a noticeable trend towards the exploration of mathematical developments during the 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting an increasing interest in this transformative period in mathematics.
  2. Textual and Quantitative Analysis of Historical Works:
    Emerging methodologies such as textometry are gaining traction, indicating a trend towards quantitative analysis of historical texts to uncover patterns and influences in mathematical literature.
  3. Mathematics and Social Contexts:
    Recent papers are increasingly addressing the relationship between mathematics and societal factors, such as the impact of historical events on mathematical practices, demonstrating a growing interest in the socio-political dimensions of mathematics.

Declining or Waning

As the journal continues to evolve, certain themes have become less prominent in recent publications. This decline may reflect shifting academic interests or a natural progression in the field of mathematics history.
  1. Ancient Mathematics:
    While ancient mathematics has been a significant area of study, recent publications indicate a decline in focus on this theme, with fewer articles exploring early mathematical practices and their historical contexts.
  2. Mathematical Pedagogy in Historical Contexts:
    There appears to be a waning interest in the historical pedagogical methods of mathematics, as fewer papers address the teaching practices and educational frameworks of past mathematicians.
  3. Mathematics in Non-Western Cultures:
    The exploration of mathematics within non-Western contexts is increasingly rare, suggesting a shift away from global perspectives in the history of mathematics.
