L?attento studio della filosofia sperimentale che Locke propone nell?Essay (16901) ? assunto come criterio di valutazione delle scelte lessicali di Coste e della capacit? di quest?ultimo di mediare tra l?originalit? della riflessione gnoseologica del pensatore inglese e il peso della tradizione filosofica cartesiana della Francia del ?600.
