Mathematics, aesthetics and being human

William Higginson

pp. 126-142

Abstract

The problem is more aesthetic than ethical, philosophical, sexual, psychological, or political, though it goes without saying that such divisions are unacceptable to me because everything that matters is, in the long run, aesthetic. (Mario Vargas Llosa, 1999, p. 194)
