%X Starting in the early ¡¯70s the San Francisco printer and typographer Jack W. Stauffacher undertook a graphic exploration of Vico¡¯s works, which continued during the past decade together with the photographer Dennis Letbetter. The aim of this article is to present their experience - which is at the same time poetic and historically attentive, focusing on the relationships between text and images, and on the typographical and physical qualities of 18th century editions - to an audience which includes Italian Vico scholars. The text is composed of a brief introduction and an interview with the two artists, and is followed (pp. 94-180) by a photographic presentation of their "Vico collaborations".
