摘要：
Historians have documented the main development of the calculus of variations in the 18th century. Although we have a clear overall picture of this subject there is in the literature no connected historical account of the more specialized research carried out during the period on problems of extremization under constraint. Concentrating on the work of Leonhard Euler and Joseph Louis Lagrange between 1738 and 1806, the present study attempts to identify and draw together the different threads that make up this story. © 1992.
