These essays discuss Vico's conception of metaphor and the imagination as unique elements in the history of Western philosophy that allow Vico to formulate a new relationship between rhetoric and philosophy. On this basis, rhetorical forms of thought and senses of language are shown to be at the basis of philosophical thought. Philosophy is understood as an enterprise that cannot overlook its traditional roots in poetic and rhetorical senses of the word. Connections between this point of view and Heidegger's analysis of language and Being are shown.

Review:
«...il volume di Grassi raccoglie una serie di saggi riguardanti le riflessioni del noto pensatore sulla retorica ... e l'umanesimo... Tali saggi, che coprono almeno due decadi della riflessione filosofica di Grassi, dal 1969 ad oggi, offrono l'opportunitą di seguire da vicino i temi e i termini principali del suo pensiero, che si focalizza soprattutto intorno alla interconnessione tra l'umanesimo (gli studi di Grassi sulla cultura dell'umanesimo e del Rinascimento sono ben noti in tutto il mondo), il pensiero di Giambattista Vico, la retorica, da lui intesa come forma peculiare di conoscenza filosofica, e la riflessione di Heidegger.» (Giuseppe Patella, Bolletino della Societą Filosofica Italiana)
