formation of the different mineral substances of which 
the earth is composed. “We originally proposed to dis- 
cuss this subject under the present article, but it has 
been thought proper to include it under the general 
head of Mrneratoey. 
GEOMETRICAL Anatysis, is the particular form 
of proceeding, employed by the ancient geometersin the 
investigation of geometrical truth. It originated in the 
school of Plato, and was alike applicable to the demon- 
stration of theorems, and the investigation of problems. 
We learn from the writings of Pappus Alexandrinus, 
that in his time ‘there existed thirty-three books rela- 
ting to this subject ; many of these have been lost, and

their restoration has afforded an exercise to the inge- g 
nuity of mathematicians of modern times. 
We have sufficiently indicated the nature of the geo- 
metrical analysis, and the mode of its application in our 
article ANatysis. When at that part of our work, it 
‘was our intention to have treated at some length on the 
ubject in this place; but as we. dvanced, we have, 
with a view to give sufficient room to other oranches of _ 
knowledge, found it necessary to limit somewhat our — 
views. The history of its origin and progress will be 
found in the intraduction tothe article Gromrrry, and 
it will be noticed again under the words INcLINaTIoN, 
‘Locus, Porism, Taneency, and Srcorion. Works 
which treat on the subject are enumerated in the in-— 
troduction to Gromerry. (4)
