Circles Disturbed by Apostolos Doxiadis
The Interplay of Mathematics and Narrative
A collection of essays exploring the deep connections between mathematics and storytelling, revealing how narrative shapes the creation, explanation, and reception of mathematical ideas and how mathematical thinking influences literary form. Spanning from antiquity to the present, the contributors treat proofs as narratives, examine the cultural myths surrounding mathematicians, and analyze literary works that engage with mathematical concepts. Through historical case studies and philosophical reflections, it shows how stories structure mathematical practice and how mathematics expands the possibilities of narrative.
