Annales de Gergonne was a mathematical journal published from Nimes, France from 1810 to 1831 by Joseph-Diaz Gergonne. Annales de Mathématiques pures et appliquées was largely devoted to geometry, with additional articles on history, philosophy, and mathematics education showing interdisciplinarity.[1]
"In the Annales, Gergonne established in form and content a set of exceptionally high standards for mathematical journalism. New symbols and new terms to enrich mathematical literature are found here for the first time. The journal, which met with instant approval, became a model for many another editor. Cauchy, Poncelet, Brianchon, Steiner, Plucker, Crelle, Poisson, Ampere, Chasles, and Liouville sent articles for publication."[2]
The reference to both pure mathematics and applied mathematics in the journal title inspired replications in later journals:[3]
- Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées started in 1836 by Joseph Liouville
- Crelle's Journal, officially Journal für die reine und die angewandte Mathematik
