Historical remarks on early theoretical work on the subject. Very early on, Einstein introduced the notion of gravitational waves, but later became convinced that they did not exist as a physical phenomenon. Exact solutions of Einstein's equations representing waves were found by a number of authors, contributing to their final acceptance as part of physics.
