520    This edited volume explores the previously 
       underacknowledged 'pre-history' of mathematical 
       structuralism, showing that structuralism has deep roots 
       in the history of modern mathematics. The contributors 
       explore this history along two distinct but interconnected
       dimensions. First, they reconsider the methodological 
       contributions of major figures in the history of 
       mathematics. Second, they re-examine a range of 
       philosophical reflections from mathematically-inclinded 
       philosophers like Russell, Carnap, and Quine, whose work 
       led to profound conclusions about logical, epistemological,
       and metaphysic.
