Leggere e interpretare la Matematica: analisi comognitiva di un testo interdisciplinare.

This paper describes the analysis of an interdisciplinary text, about mathematics and literature, according to commognition theory by Anna Sfard. This investigation is framed in a wider project: “Liceo Matematico”. One of the aims of the project is the overcoming of the barriers between scholastic subjects and the creation of a collaboration between academic scholars and the school. Here, we analyse a text by Paolo Maroscia, titled “La similitudine nella poesia e nella matematica” that was published in the book Parole, formule, emozioni: tra matematica e letteratura.
