The contributions in this proceedings volume offer a new
perspective on the mathematical ties between France and Italy, and
reveal how mathematical developments in these two countries
affected one another. The focus is above all on the Peninsula's
influence on French mathematicians, counterbalancing the
historically predominant perception that French mathematics was a
model for Italian mathematicians. In the process, the book details
a subtle network of relations between the two countries, where
mathematical exchanges fit into the changing and evolving framework
of Italian political and academic structures. It reconsiders the
issue of nationalities in all of its complexity, an aspect often
neglected in research on the history of mathematics. The works in
this volume are selected contributions from a conference held in
Lille and Lens (France) in November 2013 on Images of Italian
Mathematics in France from Risorgimento to Fascism. The authors
include respected historians of mathematics, philosophers of
science, historians, and specialists for Italy and intellectual
relations, ensuring the book will be of great interest to their
peers.
