The Allegory of Love in the Early Renaissance
Described as ‘the most beautiful book ever printed’ previous research has focused on the printing history of the Hypnerotomachia and its copious literary sources. This monograph critically engages with the narrative of the Hypnerotomachia and with Poliphilo as a character within this narrative, placing it within its European literary context. Using narratological analysis, it examines the journey of Poliphilo and the series of symbolic, allegorical, and metaphorical experiences narrated by him that are indicative of his metamorphosing interiority. It analyses the relationship between Poliphilo and his external surroundings in sequences of the narrative pertaining to thresholds; the symbolic architectural, topographical, and garden forms and spaces; and Poliphilo’s transforming interior passions including his love of antiquarianism, language, and Polia, the latter of which leads to his elegiac description of lovesickness, besides examinations of numerosophical symbolism in number, form, and proportion of the architectural descriptions and how they relate to the narrative.

Distruttori di Terre: 12. Promesse
Distruttori di Terre, rivista digitale mensile, nata per offrire nel mondo editoriale uno spaccato differente con la giusta dose d’irriverenza. Il suo nome ironico e un pizzico provocatorio, contiene la nostra intenzione di diversificarci. Vogliamo infatti, trasmettere una passione che ci accomuna: l’amore per la letteratura, abbattendo le barriere della diffidenza e favorendo l’incontro di molteplici culture, variegate come la nostra redazione. La data d’uscita, ogni ultimo del mese, non è casuale: simboleggia la fine di ciò che vorremmo combattere, porre un termine all’indifferenza per farsi promulgatori della voglia di raccontare. La rivista si snoda attraverso diverse rubriche per rispecchiare i gusti di un differente pubblico di lettori appassionati. Siamo giunti al dodicesimo numero: un anno di Distruttori di Terre. Ci è venuto naturale scegliere “Promesse” come tema per questo numero di giugno. “Promesse” perché nel festeggiare questo primo compleanno ci sentiamo di proseguire con la nostra linea editoriale per un ulteriore anno affrontando nuovi temi e nuove sfide grazie alla fiducia che ci avete fin qui accordato.

Fictions of Credit in the Age of Shakespeare
In Shakespeare's England, credit was synonymous with reputation, and reputation developed in the interplay of language, conduct, and social interpretation. As a consequence, artful language and social hermeneutics became practical, profitable skills. Since most people both used credit and extended it, the dual strategies of implication and inference—of producing and reading evidence—were everywhere. Like poetry or drama, credit was constructed: fashioned out of the interplay of artifice and interpretation. The rhetorical dimension of economic relations produced social fictions on a range of scales: from transitory performances facilitating local transactions to the long-term project of m...
