A lengthy examination of Lagrange's approach to analysis -- how he viewed the underlying concepts, the roles played by power series and the Remainder Theorem, and his methodological concerns. An appendix compares Lagrange's \textsl{Théorie} (1797 edition), \textsl{Leçons} (1801), \textsl{Leçons} (1806), and \textsl{Théorie} (1813).
