The Cannocchiale Aristotelico (Aristotelian Telescope), a work that aims to address (using the linguistic, not the visual, code) the two arts of lapidary and symbolic — to translate, in more familiar terms, verbal and, more generally, figurative — is constructed in such a way as to require the reader to adopt a dual disposition, albeit dependent on the same sense of sight: looking to read, looking to see. The paper offers some examples to support this new interpretation of Tesauro's treatise.

Abstract
The Cannocchiale Aristotelico (Aristotelian Telescope), a work that aims to address (using the linguistic, not the visual, code) the two arts of lapidary and symbolic — to translate, in more familiar terms, verbal and, more generally, figurative — is constructed in such a way as to require the reader to adopt a dual disposition, albeit dependent on the same sense of sight: looking to read, looking to see. The paper offers some examples to support this new interpretation of Tesauro's treatise.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
