Monatshefte für Mathematik und Physik — A Showcase of the Culture of Mathematicians in the Habsburgian-Hungarian Empire During the Period from 1890 until 1914

Chapter 10 in Vinzenz Bronzin’s Option Pricing Models, 2009, pp 337-358 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract When Vinzenz Bronzin published his book “Theorie der Prämiengeschäfte” (“Theory of Premium Contracts”), he received no support from the “Monatshefte für Mathematik und Physik” (“Monthly Bulletin of Mathematics and Physics”), the foremost publishing organ for mathematicians in the Austro-Hungarian empire. On the contrary, his ideas were judged to be of no practical use.1 This raises questions about the values that guided the mathematicians responsible for the bulletin.
