Fermat's works were published by Tannery and Henry in four volumes, the last of which appeared in 1912.

An additional volume was edited by de Waard in 1922:

Fermat, P. Oeuvres de Fermat: Supplément aux tomes I--IV. Documents inédits publiés avec notices sur les nouveaux manuscrits par M.V. De Waard 1922.

I have the pdfs for Tannery's volumes but I can't find one for de Waard. Does anyone have a pdf for de Waard and/or know where one can find one?

  • $\begingroup$ @PhilHarmsworth, this is just table of contents and introduction (not even all of it). $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 4, 2017 at 7:48

  • $\begingroup$ @PhilHarmsworth, they don't have a scan of the manuscript there as far as I could tell but rather extracted text with numerous textual errors (as is common with optical symbol recognition). $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 6, 2017 at 8:00

A colleague pointed me to a good source for historical documents at https://archive.org but you need to log in there.
