" Bartels went to Kasan in 1807, and Lobachevsky was his pupil. The latter's lecture notes show that Bartels never mentioned the subject of the fifth postulate to him, so that his investigations, begun even before 1823, were made on his own motion and his... "

...Both of these authors begin their investigations by assuming that through a given point in a plane more than one line can be drawn which shall never meet a given line. Their results, as far as they cover the same ground, are identical in substance, though different in...
