The dimmed outlines of phenomenal things all into one another unless we put on the merge focusing-glass of theory, and screw it up some- times to one pitch of definition and sometimes to another, so as to see down into different depths through the great millstone of the world James Clerk Maxwell (1831 - 1879) For a long time after the foundation of the modern theory of electromag- netism by James Clerk Maxwell in the 19th century, the mathematical ap- proach to electromagnetic field problems was for a long time dominated by the analytical investigation of Maxwell's equations.
