Abstract: Abstract Within the international mathematical community, the last three decades have witnessed a striking number of centennial celebrations. To name just a few, the London Mathematical Society (LMS) entered a new century in 1965 with the Société mathématique de France (SMF) following in 1972, the American Journal of Mathematics and the Circolo matematico di Palermo (CMP) saw their centenaries in 1978 and 1984, respectively, and the American Mathematical Society (AMS) passed its century mark in 1988 preceding the Deutsche Mathematiker-Vereinigung (DMV) by two years.1 These milestones suggest, at the very least, that the mathematical endeavor developed in important ways in diverse national settings during the closing quarter of the nineteenth century.
