Numero monografico "Aby Warburg: His Aims and Methods"
Abstract
In this contribution Zanon investigates the use of detail as a scholarly tool in Warburg's corpus. In the first phase of an ongoing study, the author makes a recognition of the cases in which the detail of an image in the Atlas is enlarged and juxtaposed to its original, highlighting the different visual strategies exploited by the scholar to develop and expose his research themes.
