English to Italian: Mattew Landrus' introduction to Codex Atlanticus General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
Source text - English Leonardo is known for his description of warfare as a bestial madness (pazzia bestialissima, Codex Urbinas folio 59v), though he also stated that, “for the maintenance of the principle gift of nature, namely liberty, I will find the way to offend and defend while being besieged by ambitious tyrants” (Manuscript B folio 100r). With the former comment, he describes the composition of a battle scene in his Treatise on Painting. In the latter case he introduces his intentions as a military engineer. He is in these cases the literary scholar and engineer, part of a humanist tradition of intellectual omini pratici (practical or skilled men). His latter comment recalls his draft proposal to Ludovico Sforza, lord of Milan, that, “I will make cannon, mortars and light ordinance of beautiful and useful forms that are out of common use…. I will build catapults, mangonels, trebuchets and other instruments of admirable efficiency not in general use” (Codex Atlanticus folio 1082r).
Translation - Italian Leonardo è famoso per la sua descrizione della guerra in quanto pazzia bestialissima (Codice Urbinate foglio 59v), nonostante sostenesse che Per mantenere il dono principal di natura, cioè libertà, trovo modo da offendere e difendere, in stando assediati da gli ambiziosi tiranni. (Manoscritto B foglio 100r). Con questo commento egli descrive nel suo Trattato della Pittura la composizione di una scena di battaglia, e allo stesso tempo espone le proprie idee come ingegnere militare. Leonardo letterato e ingegnere, parte di una tradizione umanistica di intellettuali omini pratici. Il suo commento precedente richiama la bozza della proposta che egli fece a Ludovico Sforza, signore di Milano: farò bombarde, mortari et passavolanti di bellissime et utile forme, fori del comuni uso…. componerò briccole, mancghani, trabuchi et altrri instrumenti di mirabile efficacia et for a de l’usato. (Codice Atlantico foglio 1082r).
