The Poincaré-Volterra Theorem: From Hyperelliptic Integrals to Manifolds with Countable Topology (2000)

"In the present article we will study the history of one of the results which led to this recognition and which Hurwitz also mentions in his lecture.2 The text deals with a development which took place mainly between the years 1888 and 1925 and during which set theory or, strictly speaking, set theoretic topology appeared within the theory of functions of one complex variable or, seen from a different point of view, crystallized at problems of complex analysis." p 375
