The philosophical perspectivism advocated by the German thinker is widely known, but his geometric research on perspective is much less so. This article seeks to remedy this situation.

Then, in <em>Origo regularum artis perspectivae quales</em>, Leibniz constructs his perspectivist <em>regula generalis</em>. Finally, Leibniz wrote <em>Scientia perspectiva and</em> readdresses the main rule of perspective and experiments with the theoretical limits of the analysis carried out in this discipline. Primarily, he supposed a ‘minimum distance’ between the elements that constitute it, and then theorised an ‘infinite interval’ between these same elements.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51061,"journal":{"name":"Historia Mathematica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.hm.2020.12.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44757748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper considers how permanence, thus understood, was used in justifying Burali-Forti and Marcolongo's notation for vectorial calculus, and in rejecting Frege's logical notation, and closes by considering Hahn's revival of Peano's argument against Pringsheim's reading of permanence as a logically necessary principle.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51061,"journal":{"name":"Historia Mathematica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.hm.2020.08.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47849420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
