Abstract
D'AMICO, Claudia. About the irreducible character of the humana mens in Nicholas of Cusa: Unity and number. Franciscanum [online]. 2018, vol.60, n.169, pp.87-107. ISSN 0120-1468.
Nicholas of Cusa elaborates the doctrine of the human spirit as a Metaphysics of Subjectivity. The Cusanus shows that the being of mind is its own operation and its own deployment that becomes either a form or a conjectural world entity. The deployment of every mind in a symbolic world has a unique and irreducible character. In order to elaborate this doctrine that advances modernity, the Cusanus responds to the relation between unit and number, which comes from the Platonic-Pythagorean Tradition.
Keywords : Nicholas of Cusa; Mind; Number; Unity; Subjectivity.
