More about the book
Exploring Giambattista Vico's theory of poetic logic, this book positions it as a foundational element in mathematics, linking instinctive counting and spatial perception to metaphorical symbolism and the origins of language. It examines contemporary research on mathematical cognition, aligning it with Vico's paradigm and building on the work of Kasner and Newman. By revisiting Vico's insights, the book offers a fresh perspective on the intersection of early mathematics and poetic language, enriching current discussions in the field.
