Here's a good article: "Poincaré and Cosmic Space: Curved or not?" "The
philosophical and historical dimensions of the concept of space have
been scrutinized in a number of scholarly works, e.g., [Bonola 1955],
[Torretti 1978], [Gray 1989], [Jammer 1993]. However, few of them pay
much attention to how the possibility of curved space was received by
astronomers and physicists in the pre-Einstein era, which is the subject
of the present paper. More specifically, apart from an introductory
section on early non-Euclidean geometry, I review the responses of the
few astronomers, physicists and mathematicians who between 1872 and 1908
expressed an interest in the question [see also Walter 1997]."
