Description

Marie-Louise von Franz explains that numbers contain archetypes governing both the spirit and matter, which implies the basis of a correlation between the two domains. Modern physics sheds light on the role of numbers as means of arranging matter, particularly with regards to the world of the atom. Here, there lies a striking parallel with the structures discovered by Jung in the collective unconscious. This shared vision draws us to a conception of a unified world (the unus mundus of the alchemists) whose harmony and meaning are conveyed through numerical order, putting an end to Cartesian dualism. This book overflows with examples borrowed from both the mathematical and scientific domain as well as that of psychology and the history of symbols.
