In this paper, we give a comprehensive summary of the discussion on the Epicurean critique of mathematics and in particular of Euclid’s geometry. We examine the methodological critique of the Epicureans on mathematics and we assess whether a “mathematical atomism” was proposed, and its implications. Finally, we examine the Epicurean philosophical stance on mathematics and evaluate whether it was on target or not.

关于伊壁鸠鲁式的数学批评的一些思考

在本文中,我们对关于伊壁鸠鲁派的数学尤其是欧几里得几何学的批判的讨论进行了全面总结。我们研究了伊壁鸠鲁主义者对数学的方法论批评,并评估了是否提出了“数学原子论”及其含义。最后,我们研究了伊壁鸠鲁人的数学哲学立场,并评估了它是否达到了目标。
