Aristotle says that the beauty of a thing composed of parts depends on size [μέγεθος] and order [τάξιϛ]. The right size is a measurement, neither large nor small, that can be grasped by the eye. Order is the proper placement of everything in its place. In the Vitruvian treatise it is said that the ordinatio is táxis. In this text we will point out that the notion of order is more in line with the concept of dispositio, and that the ordinatio is more related to the Greek verb légein [λέγειν] which means to select in order to gather with a view to a purpose
