Scripta Mathematica was a quarterly journal published by Yeshiva University devoted to the Philosophy, history, and expository treatment of mathematics.cite-ref-1[1] It was said to be, at its time, "the only mathematical magazine in the world edited by specialists for laymen."cite-ref-dsf-2-0[2]

The journal was established in 1932 under the editorship of Jekuthiel Ginsburg, a professor of mathematics at Yeshiva University,cite-ref-3[3] and its first issue appeared in 1933cite-ref-dsf-2-1[2] at a subscription price of three dollars per year.cite-ref-4[4] It ceased publication in 1973. Notable papers published in Scripta Mathematica included work by Nobelist Percy Williams Bridgman concerning the implications for physics of set-theoretic paradoxes,cite-ref-5[5] and Hermann Weyl's obituary of Emmy Noether.cite-ref-6[6]cite-ref-7[7]
