The Mathematical Principles Underlying Newton's Principia Mathematica:
D. T. Whiteside1

Abstract:

On 18 July 1733, half a dozen years after Isaac Newton's death, Dr William Derham (a close friend during his last years) observed that \"S' Is[aac] ... abhorred all Contests.... And for this reason, mainly to avoid being baited by little Smatterers in Mathematicks, he told me, he designedly made his Principia abstruse; but ye... On 18 July 1733, half a dozen years after Isaac Newton's death, Dr William Derham (a close friend during his last years) observed that \"S' Is[aac] ... abhorred all Contests.... And for this reason, mainly to avoid being baited by little Smatterers in Mathematicks, he told me, he designedly made his Principia abstruse; but yet so as to be understood by able Mathematicians, who he imagined, by comprehending his Demonstrations, would concurr with him in his Theory\".\" Forty years before, as Newton passed unseeingly by in the street at Cambridge, a nameless undergraduate had remarked sotto voce: \"There goes the man that writt a book that neither he nor anybody else understands\".\" Evidently, if it had been Newton's intention in the 1680s to make his mathematical world-view impossibly difficult for all but a tightly restricted elite to comprehend, in this one case at least he succeeded only too well. But was it? When we go behind such hearsay and anecdote, we will find that there is no trustworthy documentary evidence that Newton did deliberately contrive to render his Mathematical principles of natural philosophy more esoteric and impenetrable than he need have done. No one would deny that this ikon of scientific history is far from easy to read. Quite bluntly, the logical structure of Newton's book is slipshod, its level of verbal fluency none too high, its arguments unnecessarily diffuse and repetitive, and its very content on occasion markedly irrelevant to its professed theme: the theory of bodies in motion. But these faults are far from intentional and can largely be excused by the very rapidity with which the Principia was written-in little more than two years from the autumn of 16844and its author's distinct lack of talent for writing in a popular way. Ofsuch weaknesses no one was more conscious than Newton himself: indeed, we now know that in the early 1690s, soon after his book appeared, he reluctantly contemplated a grand revision of his work which he never found time and energy to irnplement.! In default we must suffer the crudities of the text as we have it in order to master the Principia's complex mathematical and scientific content. To attain this understanding there is no royal road which can bypass its conceptual difficulties, no novice's path which will soften its mathematical rigours. Newton himself tried to lighten the heavy load of preparatory learning for such acquaintances as Trinity College's guiding genius, Richard Bentley, who sought to achieve a limited understanding of merely the basic propositions of the Principia, but he succeeded none too well in his altruistic purpose. Having given Bentley the eminently sensible advice that \"At') first perusal of my Book it's enough if you understand y. Propositions WI\" some of') Demonvtrations we\" are easier than the rest ... [then] pass on to v: 3 Book & when you 'lee the design of that you may turn back to such Propositions as you shall have a desire to know\", Newton was then ineluctably led to compile for him in 1691 a formidable mathematical reading list\" which of necessity referred much more to recent works in geometrical and infinitesimal analysis than to traditional algebra and classical geometry. The Principia was- read more read less

A National Observatory Transformed - Greenwich in the Nineteenth Century
Robert W. Smith1

Abstract:

The Royal Observatory at Greenwich was one of the leading institutions of nineteenth-century astronomy. It was certainly a national observatory, but for much of that period the high regard with which astronomers viewed the results it produced and its position at the heart of a network of international observatories were such ... The Royal Observatory at Greenwich was one of the leading institutions of nineteenth-century astronomy. It was certainly a national observatory, but for much of that period the high regard with which astronomers viewed the results it produced and its position at the heart of a network of international observatories were such that Greenwich's importance transcended national boundaries. When in 1884 an international conference was held to choose a common zero of longitude, it was the Greenwich meridian that the conferees selected} In some ways, it was the international observatory. Dominating the Royal Observatory's history for almost half of the nineteenth century was Sir George Biddell Airy, Astronomer Royal from 1835 to 1881 (Figure I). Under Airy, the Observatory's complement and types of instruments, as well as methods of management, were transformed from those characteristic of a pre-industrial society to those of a society that had undergone the second phase of the Industrial Revolution. The result was that, although the Observatory was certainly notable for its scientific results, it was perhaps even more important for the new ways ofpursuing astronomy fashioned there. I shall follow E. W. Maunder and argue that under Airy, Greenwich to a large degree resembled a kind of accountant's office, a very different sort of workplace from that common for astronomical institutions in, say, the 1820s when Airy began his career. The Observatory's astronomical goals, however, display a strong strand of continuity throughout the century. Airy nevertheless played a key role in leading the Observatory in new directions and scholars agree that he put his stamp on the institution to a much greater degree than the other nineteenthcentury directors, Nevil Maskelyne, John Pond, and Sir William Christie. In discussing the Royal Observatory in the nineteenth century, I shall therefore concentrate upon Airy's directorship. In a short paper it is impossible to do justice to the full range of endeavours pursued under Airy. I shall instead focus on two areas that I believe are particularly revealing of the Observatory's place in nineteenth-century astronomy and in science in general. Both areas have attracted attention recently: first, the changing responsibilities of the Observatory, which in turn reveal the Observatory's shifting position in the political economies of astronomy and British science, and, second, the extent to which Airy altered the astronomer's workplace and turned Greenwich into a kind offactory and the degree to which Airy was himself a sort of factory manager. The history of nineteenth-century astronomy is a relatively neglected area of read more read less

Historical Values of the Earth's Clock Error Δ and the Calculation of Eclipses:
L. V. Morrison1, F. R. Stephenson2

Abstract:

If the positions of the Moon and Sun (and to a lesser extent the planets) in the histo... Numerous observations of the Moon, Sun and planets are recorded in ancient and medieval history. These observations which include many eclipses and lunar and planetary conjunctions frequently attract the interest of historians of astronomy. If the positions of the Moon and Sun (and to a lesser extent the planets) in the historical past are to be computed with high precision, it is usually necessary to make satisfactory allowance for the effect of variations in the Earth's rate of rotation, or, equivalently, the length of the day (LOD). Long-term variations in the LOD are mainly produced by lunar and solar tides, but other causes such as the continuing rise of land that was glaciated during the last ice-age are also significant. Although actual changes in the LOD amount to only a few hundredths of a second over several thousand years, the cumulative effect (known as ~T) of these minute changes can be very large. For instance, the estimated value of ~T at the epoch 1000 B.C. is as much as 7 hours. During this interval, the Moon can change position by nearly 4°. It is therefore a matter of concern that at present there appears to be a degree of confusion and misapprehension among historians of astronomy over the choice of values of ~T that should be used in making retrospective computations of lunar and solar positions. Accurate knowledge of the value of ~T is often crucial in assessing the local circumstances of solar eclipses. Neglect of variations in the Earth's spin rate would materially affect the calculated positions of where these phenomena could be seen on the Earth's surface. In this paper we shall try to elucidate the necessary procedures and in particular draw attention to several important points regarding ~T in the calculation of solar eclipses. We shall place special emphasis on three specific issues: the adopted time-scale, the importance of tidal friction in the ephemeris of the Moon, and the enumeration of ~T at various epochs in the past. read more read less
