Abstract: Abstract The nineteenth century was a golden age in mathematics. Entirely new subjects emerged – for example, abstract algebra, non-Euclidean geometry, set theory, and complex analysis; and old ones were radically transformed – for example, real analysis, and number theory. Just as important, the spirit of mathematics, the way of thinking about it and doing it, changed fundamentally, even if gradually.
