Two weights and two sizes... sent on May 22, 2019 (18:51) by Rodema. 64 comments, 999 views.

hand held.

La metafora basata sui due pesi che sintetizza, nella maggior parte dei riferimenti teologici, il diverso criterio usato nel dare e nel ricevere (o anche nel giudicare sé stessi e gli altri), ha senso solo se si considera lo strumento con il quale si facevano operazioni di pesatura, dall'antichità fino al secolo scorso, ovvero la bilancia a due bracci, più diffusa rispetto alla stadera composta da un solo braccio e piatto. Per pesare un oggetto, lo si poneva su un piatto mentre sull'altro piatto si mettevano dei gravi di metallo (pesi campione) di cui si sapeva esattamente il peso. Quando i due piatti della bilancia risultavano in equilibrio si contava il peso complessivo dei campioni, ottenendo così quello dell'oggetto. Usare due pesi significava usare, per un medesimo oggetto, una volta un campione leggero per vendere, una volta un campione pesante per comprare. La frode dei mercanti consisteva nell'indicare, ad esempio con 1 kg un campione che invece pesava realmente 700 grammi: così la merce in vendita che si pesava risultava più pesante e il compratore pagava di più senza saperlo. D'altra parte se il mercante disonesto doveva acquistare dei prodotti usava un campione che pur indicando 1 kg ne pesava 1.200 così da acquistare più merce a minor prezzo. Il mercante così aveva due campioni che, sebbene indicassero 1 kg, avevano due pesi reali differenti. ---- Fonte: Accademia della Crusca. --- (Rod)
