Quadrivium: The Four Classical Liberal Arts of Number, Geometry, Music, & Cosmology is an illustrated compendium that explores the four classical mathematical disciplines—arithmetic (number), geometry, music, and cosmology—which were studied from antiquity through the Renaissance to understand the nature of reality. The book synthesizes ancient wisdom by explaining how these four subjects are interconnected through the concept of number: Arithmetic: Pure number. Geometry: Number in space. Music: Number in time (harmonics and ratios). Cosmology: Number in both space and time. The book is underlined in several places with handwritten notes.
