  • What is Mathematics, Really? Who Wants to Know? Michael Friedrich Otte Luiz Gonzaga Xavier de Barros Educación Cognition Semiotics Mathematics Epistemology Mathematics Education Famous physicists, like Einstein and Wigner have been wondering, why mathematical symb olism could play such an effective and decisive role in the development of physics. Since the days of Plato, there have been essentially two different answers to this question. To Plato mathematics was a science of the unity and order of this universe. Sin ce Galilei people came to believe that mathematics does not describe the objective world, it is not a reflection of some metaphysical realism. It is rather a reflection of human activity in this world. Kant, by his “Copernican Revolution of Epistemology” s eems to have been the first to realize this. For example, number, or more generally arithmetic, was to the P ythagoreans “a cosmology” (KLEIN, 1985, p. 45), to Dedekind it is a means to better distinguish between things. The paper sketches the transition fr om an ontological to a semiotic interpretation of mathematics. 2015 artículo científico 0103-636X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=291241073017 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2912/291241073017/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2912/291241073017/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2912/291241073017/291241073017.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2912/291241073017/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2912 Boletim de Educação Matemática application/pdf Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho Boletim de Educação Matemática (Brasil) Num.52 Vol.29
