More about the book
Exploring Giambattista Vico's theory of poetic logic, this book posits that it serves as the foundational force in mathematics, linking instinctive counting and spatial awareness to metaphorical symbolism and the origins of language. It compares contemporary studies on mathematical cognition with Vico's paradigm, bridging gaps left by previous scholars. By revisiting Vico's insights, the work offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between early mathematical concepts and poetic language, enriching current discussions in mathematical cognition.
