This essay reconstructs the theoretical plot of Blasius of Parma’s Quaestiones perspectivae, in particular the thesis of visio certificata, the question of shadows and the theory of colors. The key concept of Blasius’ optics is not only his new and original reading of Alhazen’s De aspectibus, but also his polemical attitude towards Latin medieval "perspectivi," starting from his remarks on the nature of mathematics, species and the act of vision. This theories refer to Alhazen’s correction of Euclid’s and Ptolemy’s geometric optics in the second book of De aspectibus and to the importance of the principle of sensible certitude which is linked with the activity of the internal senses, i.e. memory, cognitive and aestimativa. Blasius theorizes the connection of the operationes of the human soul, both sensible and intellectual, on the basis of the «materialist» background of his psychophysiology, by means of the concept of mathematic-experimental cognitio visiva in a revision of the Aristotelian psychology of the internal senses.
