Edinburgh Mathematical Society Lecturers 1883-2024

Below we list venues, authors of papers/talks, affiliations where known, and titles for meetings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society from 1883, the year of the founding of the Society, to the present day.
Some of those listed were not present at the meeting and their paper was read by a member of the Society The Society's Minutes are not always clear on whether papers are read only by title or discussed. We have included many that will have only been read by title. Also the affiliations of the speaker may not always be correct. Since some who presented papers moved around frequently, it has been impossible to always verify the particular affiliation at the time of giving the lecture.
