The Messenger of Mathematics is a defunct mathematics journal.
The editor-in-chief was William Allen Whitworth with Charles Taylor[1] and volumes 1–58 were published between 1872 and 1929.[2] James Whitbread Lee Glaisher was the editor-in-chief after Whitworth.[3]
In the nineteen century, foreign contributions represented 4.7% of all pages of mathematics in the journal.[4]
The journal was originally titled Oxford, Cambridge and Dublin Messenger of Mathematics. It was supported by mathematics students, and conducted by a board of editors composed of members of the three universities. Volumes 1–5 were published between 1862 and 1871.[2]
It merged with The Quarterly Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics to form the Quarterly Journal of Mathematics.
