Resumen de The circulation of mathematics in the Europe of the beginning of the 19th century: The fundamental contribution of the first journal dedicated to this science
We commemorate in 2010 the bicentenary of the edition of the journal of mathematics, the Annales de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées de Joseph-Diez Gergonne (22 vol., 1810-1832). This journal profoundly modified the ways of circulation and of diffusion of this science. The initiative of Gergonne quickly involved many mathematicians all over Europe in this new form of communication. But this French initiative also incited Germany and neighbouring countries of France to publish journals specifically devoted to mathematics: Journal de Crelle (since 1826), Annali di Matematica (since 1858), etc. We can also thus measure in which way a kind of modernity and of specialization had emerged in the mathematics thanks to those journals. And we will try to demonstrate in our introduction that the Annals of Gergonne really were the first modern journal in history devoted to mathematics.
