Synopsis
Igor Stravinsky declared that mathematics is "as useful to [the musician] as the learning of another language is to a poet." In this elegant exploration, Edward Rothstein, the cultural critic for The New York Times, reveals the profound and intriguing links between these two arts. Neither history nor theory, Emblems Of Mind is an insightful and enthralling speculation that grapples with grand philosophical issues and mundane experience alike--invoking the poetry of Wordsworth, the theories of Levi-Stauss, the images of Plato, and the philosophy of Kant as it illuminates the beautiful, mysterious mathematics beneath "the art of combination which is composition." Book jacket.
