Abstract
(1) IN 1889 Prof. Gino Loria's notice was directed to a prize offered for the best history of mathematics. On turning his attention to this subject the author tells us that he became so interested in the study of the ancient Greek mathematicians that he decided to devote his attention to this instead of the more general subject. His previous writings have been published in the transactions of the academies of Turin and Modena, the latter between 1893 and 1902, and it is largely on these that the present volume is based.
