The infinite in Leibniz's mathematics

the historiographical method of comprehension in context

Eberhard Knobloch

pp. 265-278

Résumé

G. W. Leibniz published only a very small part of his papers and manuscripts. Up until now we know only 15% of his mathematical writings; their publication will probably fill 35 volumes of the Academy edition of his works and letters. The first volume, edited by my collaborator W. S. Contro and myself, appeared three years ago (Leibniz 1990), after many years of rational printing planning.
