Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the intersection of mathematics and religious practice from antiquity through the medieval period. The author argues that religious ideas and mathematical concepts were intertwined for centuries, shaping both the development of math and religious thought. The book explores mathematical themes in religious texts, the role of mathematics in the construction of religious buildings, and the influence of religious ideas on the development of mathematical theories. Analyzing ancient Babylonian and Egyptian mathematics, the geometry of the Jerusalem Temple, medieval number theory, the quadrivium, and ideas of infinity and the void, the author provides groundbreaking insights into the ways in which mathematics has servedâ"and been shaped byâ"religion, illuminating the intellectual and spiritual landscape of the ancient and medieval world.
