A Neglected Classic in the Theory of Distribution
1873年两位丹麦数学家发表了一篇论文，几乎被忽视，但实为新古典分配理论的原创性贡献。本文详细阐述其理论及应用，并评估其在经济分析史上的地位。
In 1873 there appeared in Danish an essay by two Danish mathematicians, Frederik Bing and Julius Petersen. This essay has received almost no attention, yet it appears on close inspection to be a strikingly original and path-breaking contribution to neoclassical distribution theory. A detailed exposition of the authors' theory and some of their applications is presented in the light of an interpretive model expressed in modern terms. A concluding section gives some information about the authors and attempts to assess their contribution and its claims to a significant place in the history of economic analysis.
