  In 1693, Gottfried Whilhelm Leibniz published in the Acta Eruditorum a
geometrical proof of the fundamental theorem of the calculus. During his
notorious dispute with Isaac Newton on the development of the calculus, Leibniz
denied any indebtedness to the work of Isaac Barrow. But it is shown here, that
his geometrical proof of this theorem closely resembles Barrow's proof in
Proposition 11, Lecture 10, of his Lectiones Geometricae, published in 1670.
