Rohrbasser (Jean-Marc), Véron (Jacques).- Leibniz and mortality: measurement of 'apparences' and calculation of average life Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz produced a series of manuscripts dated 1680 on the calculation of life expectancy, with a view to estimating accurately the value of life annuities. To calculate what he referred to as the 'average and presumed life', he adopted two fundamental hypotheses about the equal vitality of individuals and the equal mortality of years. These allowed him to model the mortality process. Employing an approach which was both probabilistic and empirical, Leibniz elaborated a life table based on quantitative data and various qualitative estimates. He thus calculated the value of the average life at differe...
