duality
Significado: The quality or condition of having two aspects, natures, or parts, especially when they are contrasting or complementary.
Duality is a concept that appears across philosophy, physics, psychology, and literature. In physics, wave-particle duality describes how light exhibits properties of both waves and particles. In psychology and literature, duality often explores the coexistence of opposing qualities within a single person or situation — good and evil, reason and emotion. The concept is distinct from 'dualism,' which is a specific philosophical position.
