Abstract

El escrito de la Ciencia Nueva es un texto cifrado. Pero quizá pueda descifrarse –él y la entera obra viquiana– mediante el juego conjugado de dos claves hermeneúticas inseparables: la una metafísica, semiótica la otra. Ambas se condicionan recíprocamente por la idea de “sintesis geométrica” cuya textualización descansa a su vez en un subtexto no escrito. Este subtexto posibilitador de la síntesis de semiótica en Vico no es otro que su modo de pensamiento transcendental, en nada kantiano, moderno en todo.The writing of Scienza Nuova is an encoded text. It might perhaps be deciphered not only that very text but the whole Vico’s work as well by using the connected game of two distintics hermeneutic cleves: one is metaphysical, the other semiotic. Both maintein a mutual relationship and both also are conditioned by the "geometrical syntax", a textualiztion of which seems torest in a non-written text. This subtext which makes possible to carry a complete synthesis of both metaphysics and semiotic in Vico, is nothing but his particular way of transcendental thinking, which has little to do with the Kantian tradition and is fully rooted in the contemporay thinking
