Abstract:

To have a clear vision of the evolution and profound renewal that mathematical thought underwent in the XIX century, the "century of the golden age", we must first study the centuries that prepared the fertile ground for the great revolution of the XIX century. In fact, the great development that mathematics had in the XIX century was the result of a revolutionary journey that began in the XVI century and continued in the XVII and XVIII centuries. In this work we will highlight the contributions made by the XVI century, the XVII and XVIII centuries to XIX century mathematics, trying to focus on the most important mathematical achievements of these centuries, and in particular, the birth of "modern mathematics" in the XVI century, and, in the XVII centuries and XVII centuries, the construction of geometry in modern terms and the rise of mathematical analysis, as well as the first developments of these branches of mathematics.
