Cantor, Moritz (1829 - 1920)


 
Professor of History of Mathematics in Germany

Cantor is known for his lectures on the history of mathematics. His history contains many errors, partly corrected by Gustaf Eneström, a sharp critic of Cantor. Nevertheless, Cantors work is still regarded as one of the basic (and most comprehensive) projects to the history of mathematics.
One criticism of Cantor's work was his view that the Indo-Arabic decimal system already was from the Pythagoreans, to which it served the so-called geometry II, which was attributed to Boethius as evidence - he held this compilation of 11 Century still for an original work of Boethius. He also dealt in other articles with the tradition of the Hindu-Arabic arithmetic in the West and studied the tradition of the practical aspects of the geometry from antiquity to the Middle Ages (The Roman agrimensores).
