SUMMARY. — By studying a controversial correspondence between Darboux and Houël I intend to describe and partly explain the mathematical and epistemological problems raised by the mathematicians who took part in the movement to provide the calculus with more secure foundations during the last third of the nineteenth century. After treating this debate, which involved principles alone, I then expand the discussion in order to deal with the whole of mathematical research at the time and the question why French mathematicians lagged behind in the newest trends in mathematical research developed in Germany and Italy which Riemann originated. Finally, making use of diverse and original sources, I clarify the obvious connections between the movem...
