Le metamorfosi di una freccia

A proposito dell’enigma 65 di Simposio

Abstract

In Symposius’ riddle 65 the virtuosic mixture of multiple referential fields seems to hide some echoes from the astronomical tradition on the constellation of the Arrow. The disclosure of this semantic level is not incompatible with the literal interpretation of the verses and testifies to Symposius’ original approach to kosmische Rätsel.
