A concise metaphysical critique arguing that the concepts underlying infinitesimal calculus—continuity, the infinitesimal, limit and differentiation—express deeper ontological and symbolic principles rooted in traditional doctrine, which modern mathematical formalism has abstracted away; the work contrasts a qualitative, hierarchical vision of Being with the quantitative, reductionist approach of contemporary science and contends that a proper comprehension of calculus requires recovering its transcendent, metaphysical context rather than treating infinitesimals as mere technical artifices.
