- In this lecture, Sarah explores the many connections between mathematics and literature. She shows the hidden mathematical structures behind everything from poetry to novels, and reveals some of the beautiful mathematical imagery and symbolism in fiction, from simple fairy tales to classics like Moby-Dick. Her goal is to show that not only are mathematics and literature inextricably linked, but that understanding these links can enhance our enjoyment of both.
Sarah Hart is Gresham Professor of Geometry at Gresham College and Professor of Mathematics at Birkbeck, University of London. She is author of 'Once Upon a Prime: the Wondrous Connections between Mathematics and Literature'.
Absolutely delightful talk, thank you so much! My 2024 reading list has now grown.
Just to drop a few more math-related works, there's "Proof" by David Auburn, "Labyrinths" by Borges, "Math Girls" series by Hiroshi Yuki, and of course "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll.
Excited to watch this
Lovely presentation. Well done.
my mind is blown. like, whatttt! I take maths and Eng lit at HL in IB, this is so brilliant.
Are there any research papers on the same by Hart S?
Sarah has written a book on the subject (Once Upon a Prime).
