Item description from seller

Two volumes (of four) 8vo. vi, 206; xi, [1 blank], 218 pp. Uncut. Original grey paper wraps (volume 4 printed); bookseller's price ticket on the rear covers. Ownership stamp of Federico Grabiel. "Meray published a second important work in 1872. This work is a book Nouveau precis d'analyse infinitesimale which aims to present the theory of functions of a complex variable using power series. It is another rigorous work and in fact between 1872 and 1894 Meray produced a series of papers which remove geometric considerations from analytic proofs. Meray's work consistently follows Lagrange in basing the whole of analysis on the concept of functions written as Taylor series." Charles Meray studied at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris. He began his studies in 1854 when he was eighteen years old, and graduated in 1857. After graduating, Meray taught at the Lycee of St Quentin for two years but then left teaching for seven years during which time he lived in a small village near Chalon-sur-Saone. Following these seven years when he chose not to work, Meray took up a teaching position again in 1866, this time lecturing at the University of Lyon for a year before being appointed as Professor of Mathematics at the University of Dijon. He would continue to work in Dijon for the rest of his career. "In his time he was a respected but not a leading mathematician. Meray is remembered for having anticipated, clearly and with only minor differences of style, Cantor's theory of irrational numbers, one of the main steps in the arithmetisation of analysis.".…
