The only recorded set of notes taken from French mathematician Augustin Louis Cauchy's first-year undergraduate lectures at the École Polytechnique for the years 1824-1825, taken by his student Christophe Louis Léon Juchault de La Moricière. These notes are of considerable historical importance: although the lectures on analysis were published in four great treatises, the content of the lectures evolved significantly during Cauchy's 15 years of teaching so that the content of a particular series of lectures may differ significantly from the published version. Moreover, the notes provide a unique insight into Cauchy's lectures on mechanics, which were never published.
