[678] This note on Carlyle (1795-1881) is interesting. The translation of Legendre appeared in the same year (1824) as his translation of Goethe's _Wilhelm Meister_.

[679] Michael Stifel (1487-1567), also known as Stiefel, Styfel, and Stifelius, was an Augustine monk but became a convert to Lutheranism. He was professor of mathematics at Jena (1559-1567). His edition of the _Coss_ appeared at Koenigsberg in 1553, the first edition having been published in 1525. The + and - signs first appeared in print in Widman's arithmetic of 1489, but for purposes of algebra this book was one of the first to make them known.

[680] Christoff Rudolff was born about 1500 and died between 1540 and 1552. _Die Coss_ appeared in 1525 and his arithmetic in 1526.
