General Investigations OF Curved Surfaces: Karl Friedrich Gauss

by Karl Friedrich Gauss

In 1827 Gauss presented to the Royal Society of G ttingen his important paper on the theory of surfaces, which seventy-three years afterward the eminent French geometer, who has done more than any one else to propagate these principles, characterizes as one of Gauss's chief titles to fame, and as still the most finished and useful introduction to the study of infinitesimal geometry._ This memoir may be called: General Investigations of Curved Surfaces, or the Paper of 1827, todistinguish it from the original draft written out in 1825, but not published until 1900. A list of the editions and translations of the Paper of 1827 follows.There are three editions in Latin, two translations into French, and two into German. The paper was originally published in Latin under the title: Ia. Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas auctore Carolo Friderico Gauss.
