Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of knowledge and the ways in which we understand the world around us. Exploring the concept of "dissimulation" - the art of deception - the author examines how this practice has been viewed throughout history. From the perspectives of good princes and tyrants, the text explores the ethical complexities of secrecy and the potential dangers of misrepresentation. The author then investigates the subtle mechanisms of perception and how our senses shape our understanding of distance, particularly in the realm of astronomy. Through a detailed exploration of historical attempts to calculate the distances of celestial bodies, the author unveils the development of sophisticated methods and the evolution of our knowledge of the universe. The book further explores the art of perspective in painting, unveiling the intricate rules and mathematical principles that underpin the illusion of depth and three-dimensionality. This exploration reveals how the artists of the past carefully crafted visual experiences, manipulating lines and angles to create the sense of distance and spatial relations that we take for granted today. Finally, the book touches upon the art of distillation, examining the scientific and practical applications of this process throughout history. By exploring the processes of sublimation, evaporation, and condensation, the author reveals the crucial role of distillation in the development of chemistry and its applications in various fields. The book serves as a valuable resource for understanding how knowledge has been acquired and applied in various disciplines, offering a window into the intellectual and scientific advancements of the past.
