French translation of Stone's supplement on integral calculus (in Newtonian terms "the inverse method of fluxions") to L' Hôpital's great standard textbook on Leibniz' differential calculus "Analyse des infiniment petits" (1st ed. 1696). Edmund Stone (1700-1768), a self-taught mathematician, rendered L'Hôpital's influential text available to the English-speaking world with the title "The Method of Fluxions, both Direct and Inverse" (1st ed. 1730). - De Backer/Sommervogel II, 829 n. 6.€ 240
