In a career that spans more than four decades, Professor Lützen's scholarly contributions have enhanced our understanding of the history, development, and organization of mathematics. The essays cover a broad range of areas connected to Professor Lützen's work. In addition to this noteworthy scholarship, Professor Lützen has always been an exemplary colleague, providing support to peers as well as new faculty and graduate students. We dedicate this Festschrift to Professor Lützen—as a scholarly role model, mentor, colleague, and friend UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110769968 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110769968 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110769968/original ER -
