Find $\int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$ without substitution 2018-08-15: I'm still looking for an answer that does not rely on 
$$\int{f\left[g(x)\right]g'(x)}\,\mathrm dx = F\left[g(x)\right]$$

I'm refreshing my old calculus skills, and the textbook (Kalkulus by Tom Lindstrøm, 3rd edition, a Norwegian book) asks me to find $\int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$. 
I start with integration by parts:
$$\int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx 
= \int{1\cdot\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx 
= x\cdot\arctan x - \int{x\cdot \frac{1}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx$$
Next, it would be natural to use substitution, and I can do that to get the answer:
$$x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{\ln(x^2+1)}{2}+c$$
Which is correct, but it's clear from context that the book wants me to do it without using substituation. I feel like I've tried everything, looking at the book's own examples, but I must be missing some essential trick.
Here are some of the approaches I've tried:
1. Integration by parts, again
1.1. $u = x$ , $v' = \frac{1}{x^2+1}$
$$x\cdot\arctan x - \left(x\cdot\arctan x - \int{1\cdot\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx\right) 
= \int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$$
Back where I started.
1.2. $u = \frac{1}{x^2+1}$ , $v' = x$
$$x\cdot\arctan x - \left(\frac{x^2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{x^2+1} - \int{\frac{x^2}{2} \cdot \frac{-2x}{(x^2+1)^2}}\,\mathrm dx\right)$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2(x^2+1)} - \int{\frac{x^3}{(x^2+1)^2}}\,\mathrm dx$$
I've tried hacking away at this, but it doesn't look like it's getting any easier.
2. Adding and subtracting $x^2$ in the numerator
$$x\cdot\arctan x - \int{x\cdot \frac{(x^2+1)-x^2}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \int{x\cdot \left(1 - \frac{x^2}{x^2+1}\right)}\,\mathrm dx$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \int{x - x\cdot\frac{x^2}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \int{x\cdot\frac{x^2}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx$$
The book uses a similar trick (adding and subtracting 1 in the numerator) to solve $\int{x\cdot\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$. In the process it finds that $\int{\frac{x^2}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx = x - \arctan x$. Perhaps I need to use this result:
Partial integration with $u = x$ , $v´ = \frac{x^2}{x^2+1}$ 
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \left(x\cdot(x-\arctan x) - \int{1\cdot (x-\arctan x)}\,\mathrm dx\right)$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \left(x^2 - x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx\right)$$
$$= x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + x^2 - x\cdot\arctan x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$$
$$= \int{\arctan x}\,\mathrm dx$$
Back where I started, again. I've been trying for days, different tricks and manipulations. The book doesn't even list it as a particularly tricky question, so I'm feeling a bit dumb.
3. Searching for the answer
I've looked at some other questions, including


*

*Integration of arctan(x) is itself?

*Indefinite integral of $\arctan(x)$, why consider $1\cdot dx$?
But they don't seem to answer my particular question.

Observe that 
$$I=\int{x\cdot \frac{1}{x^2+1}}\,\mathrm dx$$
can be rewritten as
$$I=\frac{1}{2}\int{\frac{\mathrm d(x^2+1)}{x^2+1}}=\ln(x^2+1)$$
