Bibliographie des travaux de Fermat avant les publications de son fils.
Lorsque, le 12 janvier 1665, dans le cinquième mois de sa soixante - qua trième année, Pierre de Fermat mourut à Castres, où l'avait appelé son ser vice de conseiller au parlement de Toulouse, il était tenu pour le plus grand géomètre de l'europe mais ce n'était guère par la voie de l'imprimerie que son nom s'était répandu dans le monde savant.
