refiguring
Rethinking the math
Refiguring is rethinking or reconceiving something—recasting it in a new form or framework.
Scholars refigure historical narratives; artists refigure familiar subjects.
The word suggests more than simple revision: a fundamental reimagining of how something is understood or represented.
The book refigures our understanding of colonial resistance.
