A graduate student working on the espistemology of labour economics  
has written asking for help identifying the origins of the canonical  
labour supply model built upon the trade-off between leisure and  
income. 
 
The student wonders if the relationship goes back beyond the literature  
of the 1920s and 1930s, possibly to Jevons' understanding of an  
individual's labour supply and/or to Veblen's indentification of the  
income-leisure polarity. 
 
Can anyone help identify the source(s) of the canonical model?
