Descripción
Sumario:The aim of this paper is to approach the way man knows himself through the curi-ous game of the ball posed in De ludo globi. The hypothesis of this work is that, if it is to be known, the human soul must first come out of itself. From an analysis of the elements involved in that game, we will see that artistic creation, as an explicatio of the notions that it carries within itself, provides the appropriate instance and tool for this purpose. Therefore, we will follow the trail of the vis inventiva to find the powers of the soul and accentuate an important aspect in which the human mens is imago Dei: the free creative force.
