contents <p>Leonhard Euler, one of the most influential mathematicians of the 18th century, has been accredited for introducing a significant portion of modern mathematics. Since its founding, Euler has been an active member of the Imperial Russian Academy of Sciences in Saint Petersburg. With an emphasis on the era of Leonhard Euler’s influence, this study explores the intellectual output of the Russian Academy of Sciences throughout the 18th century. Scholarly work published by the Academy was collected and analyzed by examining various aspects, including authorship and disciplinary trends. Our primary source is the detailed catalog of the Academy published in the nineteenth century by Paul Heinrich Fuss, the secretary of the Imperial Academy. Mining data in this catalog, our findings reveal key contributors, publication patterns, and the evolution of scholarly focus within the academy. Euler emerges as a dominant figure whose prolific output significantly shaped the academy’s intellectual landscape. The study provides insights into the academy’s development and the additional context of Euler’s groundbreaking work.</p>
