This paper is an essay over the evolution of fundamental ideas of fracture mechanics. This evolution is described from an historical point of view following three major directions: experimental methods, numerical methods and analytical methods. It starts from the observation of Leonardo da Vinci from the fifteenth century and goes until the present time, pointing out the most important moments and ideas in the evolution of fracture mechanics.
