Abstract

[Robert Leslie Ellis (1817–1859) was a true mathematician. He became a Renaissance man in the style of many Victorians, but the bedrock of his intellectual vitality was mathematics. This, coupled with the breadth of his reading, an extensive general knowledge, and a willingness to examine serious historical and philosophical issues made him an ideal candidate for editorial duties in the 1840s.]
