Both of these don't quite get across the main point, although the German pages do much better than the English ones.

It is only partly clear from these that the tradition of mathematics as proof is based almost entirely on Euclid's Elements - or what a tremendous role it played in getting us to where we are now. It is indubitably one of the masterpieces, not just of mathematics, but of human achievement, but you would probably not come away from these quite realizing how amazing this story is. Nor would you have any detailed idea of the both achievements and failures of the book, nor any of the history in various parts of the world. The German pages at least mention Hilbert's reworking of the axioms of geometry in the late 19th century, but subtlety is lost.

One thing to keep in mind is that, as far as we can tell, Euclid summarized the mathematics of his time so well that his predecessors' work disappeared from sight.
