The Tragedy Of A Man Ahead Of His Time, Leonardo Da Vinci
It’s hard to see some things really clearly, things that are really obvious to you when your mind is the only one that can see them. Few of privileged minds have suffered from this unfortunate adversity, which seems to have arisen before time has reached their level. This is reflected in the book Leonardo da Vinci o la Tragedia de la Perfección (the English translation is called Leonardo da Vinci or the Tragedy of Imperfection ) , written by Carlos Blanco. The book presents a powerful picture of Leonardo da Vinci.
Carlos Blanco introduces us to Leonardo da Vinci, a man who suffered an immense tragedy because he was born with the gift of the ability to understand everything at his fingertips and much more. This insatiable thirst for knowledge led him to suffering, though along the way he was able to produce some of the most important works in human history.
Carlos Blanco, a work by Leonardo da Vinci o la de la Tragedy perfección writer
Before we fully delve into the passionate life of Leonardo da Vinci, it may be interesting to learn a little more about the author of this book, Carlos Blanco.
Carlos Blanco holds a doctorate in theology and philosophy, and also holds a degree in chemistry. He has published numerous books, including Mentes maravillosas que cambiaron la Humanidad in 2007, and Conciencia y mismidad in 2013.
Blanco experiences a constant attraction to knowledge, which led him to become an avid reader and researcher. He even belongs to the Spanish Association of Egyptologists. All this despite his young age: he was born in 1986.
Carlos Blanco offers a course site La Mente es Maravillosa through (a Spanish version of our website in Finnish Miracles of the Mind), which introduces an incredibly large and complex mazes us to the brain neuronal networks. It is called El Poder de la Mente (Power of the Mind), an incredible journey into the multifaceted world of our own consciousness. After completing this course, nothing is the same.
Leonardo da Vinci and the search for perfection
As we read Blanco’s book, we get to know da Vinci, which is largely completely unknown to the general public. The author has tried to step into the mind of this genius, which is a complex and arduous task, to offer a passionate story about the outstanding philosophical and poetic development of this famous Renaissance artist.
It is not very surprising to find in the book truly joyous songs about the victories of da Vinci – a trained man with strong convictions – as opposed to the misfortune of being able to see the skyline that many people today cannot even comprehend, even 400 years after his life.
Blanco reveals the virtues and tragedies of da Vinci in a bold literary play that combines different genres, emulating himself an artist who was able to create real gems in any field, be it painting, writing or even engineering skills.
However, this search for perfection has relentless gray areas. A person with boundless intelligence and imagination can be limited by the limitations of society and the world in which he lives.
As a man with such an immense constant thirst for wisdom, could he have enjoyed the technology we enjoy today? What heights could he have reached if he had only been born a little later? How misunderstood would he be if he proclaimed his ideas and inventions now?
Leonardo da Vinci, a visionary genius
Despite the challenges of his genius, Leonardo da Vinci never allowed his own time or the limitations or obstacles it caused to take over. With wide boundaries in the field of technology and limited technology, he was able to design machines that got to see the light of day thanks to the advances that took place hundreds of years later.
Without a doubt, da Vinci was a genius who possessed the gift of creativity that only a few people in history have received. Only an undisputed genius can see beyond the limitations of his own time.
