图书描述

EVERYONE KNOWSTHE IMAGE. NO ONE KNOWS ITS STORY. This is the story of Vitruvian Man: Leonardo da Vinci’s famous drawing of a man in a circle and a square. it has become the world’s most famous cultural icon, yet almost nobody knows anything about it.

Leonardo didn’t summon Vitruvian Man out of thin air. He was playing with the idea, set down by the Roman architect Vitruvius. To place a man inside those shapes was therefore to imply that the human body was the world in miniature. This idea, known as the theory of the microcosm, was the engine that had powered Western religious and scientific thought for centuries, and Leonardo hitched himself to it in no uncertain terms.

Yet starting in the 1480s he set out to do something unprecedented. If the design of the body truly did reflect that of the cosmos, he reasoned, then by studying its proportions and anatomy more thoroughly than had ever been done before—by peering deep into both body and soul—he might broaden the scope of his art to include the broadest of metaphysical horizons. He might, in other words, obtain an almost godlike perspective on the makeup of the world as a whole. Vitruvian Man gives that exhilarating idea visual expression.

In telling its story, Toby Lester weaves together a century-spanning saga of people and ideas. Assembled here is an eclectic cast of fascinating characters: the architect Vitruvius; the emperor Caesar Augustus and his “body of empire”; early Christian and Muslim thinkers; the visionary mystic Hildegard of Bingen; the book-hunter Poggio Bracciolini; the famous dome-builder Filippo Brunelleschi; Renaissance anatomists, architects, art theorists, doctors, and military engineers; and, of course, in the starring role, Leonardo himself—whose ghost Lester resurrects in the surprisingly unfamiliar context of his own times.

Like Vitruvian Man itself, the book captures a pivotal time in the history of Western thought when the Middle Ages was giving way to the Renaissance, when art and science and philosophy all seemed to be converging as one, and when it seemed just possible, at least to Leonardo da Vinci, that a single human being might embody—and even understand—the nature of everything.

维特鲁威人

读后感

评分

这是一幅名画:一个赤裸的男人,两种身形重叠,站姿挺拔,手脚伸展,圆圈和方块界定了他的存在。图像周围附注着奇异的镜像文字,写满作画者对人体比例的相关思索。——列奥纳多·达·芬奇的代表作品《维特鲁威人》。 从1490年诞生至今,《维特鲁威人》日益成为鲜明的文化符号。...

我一直都记得达芬奇小时候的那个画鸡蛋的故事——达芬奇的老师天天让他画鸡蛋,就这样直到有一天达芬奇自认为自己的画技已经相当娴熟,跟老师说不想再画鸡蛋时,老师说了一番意味深长的话:“每个鸡蛋的角度都是独一无二的,所以我才让你天天练习,观察它们不同的样子。”少年...

评分

最近的阅读中,最想安利的就是《达芬奇幽灵》。 看标题会以为是《达芬奇密码》之类的悬疑推理小说。其实是本正经的非虚构类人文社科读物,最初在豆瓣上偶然发现便一见钟情,长了数天草后终于下手收割。因为还没有电子版所以难得的买了实体书。聚精会神的三天刷完。很开心的是高...
