👉 Matrilinearism is a philosophical and literary movement that emerged in the 19th century, characterized by an emphasis on the idea of the "matricial" or "linear" aspect of mathematical concepts. This approach emphasizes the importance of geometrically representing mathematical objects as linear entities rather than as abstract forms. The term "matrilinearism" was coined by philosopher and mathematician Karl Popper in his book "The Logic of Scientific Discovery," published in 1935.
