Abstract: This article begins the development of a taxonomy of mathematical prose,
describing the precise function and meaning of specific types of mathematical
exposition. It further discusses the merits and demerits of a style of
mathematical writing that labels each passage according to its function as
described in the taxonomy. (Update)
