书目名称 | Explaining Beauty in Mathematics: An Aesthetic Theory of Mathematics | 编辑 | Ulianov Montano | 视频video | | 概述 | Most comprehensive, systematic and scientifically informed study of aesthetic judgments in mathematics.Develops a naturalistic aesthetic theory that accounts for aesthetic phenomena in mathematics.Dra | 丛书名称 | Synthese Library | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This book develops a naturalistic aesthetic theory that accounts for aesthetic phenomena in mathematics in the same terms as it accounts for more traditional aesthetic phenomena. Building upon a view advanced by James McAllister, the assertion is that beauty in science does not confine itself to anecdotes or personal idiosyncrasies, but rather that it had played a role in shaping the development of science. Mathematicians often evaluate certain pieces of mathematics using words like beautiful, elegant, or even ugly. Such evaluations are prevalent, however, rigorous investigation of them, of mathematical beauty, is much less common. The volume integrates the basic elements of aesthetics, as it has been developed over the last 200 years, with recent findings in neuropsychology as well as a good knowledge of mathematics..The volume begins with a discussion of the reasons to interpret mathematical beauty in a literal or non-literal fashion, which also serves to survey historical and contemporary approaches to mathematical beauty. The author concludes that literal approaches are much more coherent and fruitful, however, much is yet to be done. In this respect two chapters are devoted t | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Application of Aesthetic Judgment; Beauty, Elegance and Ugliness in Mathematics; Concept of Aesthetic | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-03452-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-35381-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-03452-2Series ISSN 0166-6991 Series E-ISSN 2542-8292 | issn_series | 0166-6991 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014 |
