Like linear perspective, complex numbers and probability are notable discoveries of the Renaissance. History has been quick to recognize the crucial impact of linear perspective on painting, but reluctant to acknowledge the importance of complex numbers and probability. Both were treated with a great deal of suspicion by the scientific establishment and overlooked for many years. It was only in the twentieth century, when quantum theory defined the notion of "complex probability amplitude", that complex numbers merged with probability and transformed the image of the physical world. From a theoretical point of view, however, the space opened to painting by linear perspective and the space opened to science by complex numbers are equally valuable and share significant characteristics. By exploring that common ground, The Art of Science will lead the reader to complement Leonardo’s vision of painting as a science and to see science as an art. Its aim is to restore a visual dimension to mathematical sciences – an element dulled, if not obscured, by historians, philosophers, and scientists themselves.

"Tout le savoir du monde"d'Annita Angelini présente et analyse les "Tableaux accomplis de tous les arts libéraux", première encyclopédie systématique conçue par Christofle de Savigny, disciple de Pierre de la Ramée. Archive peu connue en France cette oeuvre est pourtant à l'origine d'un des livres fondateurs de notre culture moderne, l'Encyclopédie de Diderot et d'Alembert. Signés de la main d'un auteur quasi inconnu, Christofle de Savigny (probablement nom d'emprunt d'un groupe de savants humanistes), les "Tableaux accomplis de tous les arts liberaux contenans brievement et clerement par singuliere methode de doctrine, une generale et sommaire partition des dicts arts, amassez et reduicts en ordre pour le soulagement et profit de la jeunesse", se présentent originairement sous la forme d'une édition précieuse, enrichie de gravures élégantes, bénéficiant d'une impression de prestige. Mais l'apparence de ce livre se révèle trompeuse ; il s'agit en réalité d'une construction encyclopédique extrêmement précise, fortement ancrée dans la culture française du XVIe siècle. L'ensemble se divise en seize traités consacrés à autant de disciplines - grammaire, rhétorique, dialectique, arithmétique, géométrie, optique, musique, cosmographie, astrologie, géographie, médecine, physique, droit, histoire, éthique et théologie. Ce n'est ni un manuel scolaire ni une oeuvre d'érudition, mais une sorte d'organon pour l'utilisation et l'application des savoirs et des sciences. Les divers traités des "Tableaux", aussi abrégés soient-ils, aspirent à diffuser l'idée humaniste de "culture civile" en mettant à disposition du public le plus vaste, non pas un autre savoir mais le même savoir que celui des élites intellectuelles. Leurs concepteurs avaient compris qu'ils pouvaient extraire d'ouvrages hétérogènes et fortement spécialisées, la matière des seize disciplines, pour opérer une sorte de reductio d'une littérature scientifique, à la fois composite, novatrice et réformatrice. Ils ont ainsi réactualisé l'antique nom d'encyclopaedia dans un genre littéraire qui n'existait pas encore mais dont ils pressentaient la capacité à communiquer au plus grand nombre un savoir élevé et remarquable.
