Abstract
Leibniz declares that the human thought is unavoidably mediated by signs. At the same time, he considers that we only have access to things through ideas and that we have access to ideas only through signs. Consequently we have nothing but signs, some of them true, some false. Distinguishing one among others constitutes the key for achieving knowledge. In this paper I will address to Leibniz’s blind knowledge question and I will evaluate the resources to which Leibniz appeal to assure knowledge.
