The mathematical metaphor of analysis

Abstract

This work, in a similar form, was presented at an Eranos seminar organized by the CIPA (Centro Italiano Psicologia Analitica) in april 2017, titled "AT ERANOS ON JUNG FOOTSTEPS". I was proud and very stimulated to deal with something that links different aspects of my life: math and analytic psychology. I find very interesting the analogies, not just linguistic but also structural, between these disciplines, both products of the human mind.
