A return to the ancient model of reading, something which would appear particularly necessary today, can be proposed and experienced only on the basis of a critical and creative hermeneutic perspective.

I mean by this a conception according to which the act of reading is ruled by the objective power of a text to which the reader refers and conforms in an exclusive way, in order to draw on it the knowledge necessary to live a fully human life: wisdom. On the necessity of such a return I shall present further, wider reflections dealing precisely with that €œwisdom€, which is “the only one worthy to be pursued” (Thesis III).
