Contempler L’infini

Contempler l'infini invites the reader to study the function of the contemplative act in its relationship to space and time, by examining the epistemic value and scope of this act (from a mathematical, philosophical, phenomenological, aesthetic, artistic, linguistic and poetic point of view) when it is determined in relation to a reality represented as "infinite" (God, soul, cosmos, etc.). This book is conceived in an eminently interdisciplinary context, the aim being to understand how this subtle articulation of the two concepts can be approached according to very different but often epistemologically complementary methodologies and lexicons. The collection brings together studies and reflections from French and Hungarian researchers in a variety of fields (mathematics, philosophy, aesthetics, phenomenology, theology, linguistics and literature).
