Il logos inciso nell'argilla. Ricordo di John Chadwick
No full textOn the centenary of the birth of John Chadwick (who, together with Michael Ventris, deciphered the Cretan script "Linear B"), the author, who knew him personally and corresponded with him, reconstructs and relates unpublished aspects of how Chadwick arrived at his discoveries, thanks to his military decryption experiences during the Second World War. Philosophy had flourished on Greek soil several centuries after Linear B, yet we cannot help but recognise that its basic constituent, the logos, the word as the expression of (future) thought, was indeed born on the clay tablets of Crete.Nel centenario della nascita di John Chadwick (il quale decifrò insieme a Michael Ventris la scrittura cretese “Lineare B”), l’autore, che lo conobbe personalmente ed ebbe con lui uno scambio epistolare, ricostruisce e riferisce aspetti inediti di come Chadwick giunse alle sue scoperte, grazie a esperienze di decrittazione militare risalenti alla Seconda Guerra Mondiale. La filosofia era fiorita sul suolo greco diversi secoli dopo la Lineare B, eppure non possiamo fare a meno di riconoscere che il suo costituente basilare, il logos, la parola in quanto espressione del pensiero (futuro), era davvero nato sulle tavolette d’argilla di Creta
