X Abstract

The pathways along which A. Einstein and D. Hilbert independently came to the gravitational field equations are traced. Some of the papers that assert a point of view on the history of the derivation of the gravitational field equations “that radically differs from the standard point of view” are critically analyzed. It is shown that the conclusions drawn in these papers are completely groundless.
