Abstract
The Riesz brothers, Frigyes Riesz (1880-1956) and Marcel Riesz (1886-1969) were world famous mathematicians in the 20th century. They were not only excellent scholars, but also founders of mathematical schools. Frigyes Riesz taught at universities in Hungary (Kolozsvár, Szeged and Budapest), and Marcel Riesz at universities in Sweden (Stockholm and Lund). Marcel Riesz's academic legacy is in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Lund. László Filep (1941-2004), a Hungarian historian of mathematics, put this legacy in order in 2003. He planned to publish the Riesz brothers's correspondence in a book, but unfortunately Filep died a year later. In our project we carry on with his work at the Institute for the History of Hungarian Sciences.
