L'arte della memoria di Yates Frances 
A book certainly important in my youth training is
"The Art of Memory" of Frances Yates
.... Research by Frances A. Yates (remember that his fascination with
Ramon Llull, my other milestone - it was very strong) have shown keen interest in the occult and magical aspects of culture tardocinquecentesca, lighting environments and characters that move between forms of culture clear the classical and the innovations of the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century. The Art of Memory offers a secure means to identify the essential steps of the intellectual history of the Renaissance.
"What I was especially interested - writes the author - is the story of how memory is able to embrace the history of culture as a whole. The barriers between different disciplines, including natural sciences and humanities, including art and literature, between filsofia and religion, disappeared in the history of memory. "
