Poetic Logic and the Origins of the Mathematical Imagination - Mathematics in Mind 1st ed. 2023 edition

This book treats eighteenth-century Italian philosopher Giambattista Vico’s theory of poetic logic for the first time as the originating force in mathematics, transforming instinctive counting and spatial perception into poetic (metaphorical) symbolism that dovetails with the origin of language.
