Relectures et réécritures des textes de B. Riemann dans leur édition par R. Dedekind et H. Weber

Résumé En

In 1876 Bernhard Riemann's Gesammelte Werke, with a selection of unpublished manuscripts from his Nachlass are, are published. This edition is the result of several years of protracted work from the two editors, Richard Dedekind and Heinrich Weber. Indeed, Dedekind and Weber's editorial work involved the tedious process of deciphering, clearing up and reconstructing Riemann's manuscripts. In this paper, using the editors' correspondence and elements of both Riemann's and Dedekind's Nachlässe, I analyse the philological and mathematical practices involved in their editorial work. In particular, I consider how the path from some of Riemann's original manuscripts to their published version involved considerable efforts from the editors in order to understand, polish, and (sometimes) correct the texts. La Fondation des Treilles, créée par Anne Gruner Schlumberger, a notamment pour vocation d'ouvrir et de nourrir le dialogue entre les sciences et les arts afin de faire progresser la création et la recherche contemporaines. Elle accueille également des chercheurs et des écrivains dans le domaine des Treilles (Var) .
