Abstract
The goal of this paper is to point out and to stress the motifs of Torquato Accetto’s Della dissimulazione onesta, which come from Giordano Bruno. The scholars haven’t thoroughly investigated this link yet. Nonetheless, the motifs are many: 1) the difference between simulation and dissimulation; 2) the condition of loneliness wich belongs to true intellectuals within an overhelming crisis; 3) the philosophical anthropology and the principle of action; 4) the political need of dissimulation
