Agnes Mary Clerke and Mathematics in the Eleventh Encyclopedia Britannica
James S. Wolper
Abstrak
Agnes Mary Clerke (1842-1907) was an important contributor to the discussions of Mathematics in the Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica. The Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica had the audacity to "presume to define and delineate the entire (and thus complete) opus of all human knowledge." This is a survey of the Encyclopedia's treatment of Mathematics and an appreciation of her writings.
