Interactions between Orality and Writing in Early Modern Italian Culture
Investigating the interrelationships between orality and writing in elite and popular textual culture in early modern Italy, this volume shows how the spoken or sung word on the one hand, and manuscript or print on the other hand, could have interdependent or complementary roles to play in the creation and circulation of texts. The first part of the book centres on performances, ranging from realizations of written texts to improvisations or semi-improvisations that might draw on written sources and might later be committed to paper. Case studies examine the poems sung in the piazza that narrated contemporary warfare, commedia dell'arte scenarios, and the performative representation of the d...
A Companion to the Renaissance in Southern Italy (1350–1600)
A Companion to the Renaissance in Southern Italy offers readers unfamiliar with Southern Italy an introduction to different aspects of the fifteenth- and sixteenth-century history and culture of this vast and significant area of Europe, situated at the center of the Mediterranean. Commonly regarded as a backward, rural region untouched by the Italian Renaissance, the essays in this volume paint a rather different picture. The expert-written contributions present a general survey of the most recent research on the centers of southern Italy, as well as insight into the ground-breaking debates on wider themes, such as the definition of the city, continuity and discontinuity at the turn of the s...
Ancora su poteri, relazioni, guerra nel regno di Ferrante d’Aragona: studi sulle corrispondenze diplomatiche II
[Italiano]: Il volume, che riprende il titolo di quello pubblicato nel 2011, presenta alcune ricerche sul lungo regno di Ferrante, secondo re aragonese di Napoli, utilizzando in maniera privilegiata lo straordinario patrimonio informativo costituito dalle corrispondenze diplomatiche. Alcuni cruciali eventi del Quattrocento italiano risultano irradiati di nuova luce (la battaglia di Ponza, le vicende regnicole del condottiero Giacomo Piccinino, il viaggio di Lorenzo il Magnifico a Napoli, la guerra di Ferrara), mentre emergono spunti stimolanti su temi afferentia originali ambiti di espressione del potere: i rapporti tra monarchia, società e istituzioni fiscali del regno napoletano; l’uso ...
Convergenze plurilingui
The concepts of "plurilinguism" and "multilingualism" are normally used in studies dealing with current linguistic realities observed in communities of speakers. This volume collects eleven essays which apply these categories to historical settings, spanning a period from the Middle Ages until the late Renaissance. It demonstrates that contacts between languages have, for centuries, characterized and shaped the linguistic realities of Europe.
La fortuna di Diodoro Siculo fra Quattrocento e Cinquecento
This volume analyzes the fortune of books I–V of Diodorus Siculus’ "Bibliotheca historica" in the 15th and 16th centuries, based on the study of the first two translations into Italian. Published anonymously, they both derived from Poggio Bracciolini’s 1449 Latin version. The study investigates the history of these two texts, reconstructing, as much as possible, the context of their production, and offers a critical parallel edition.
Vago et degno luogo lodare. Giovanni Tarcagnota tra storia e antiquaria
Giovanni Tarcagnota nasce a Gaeta intorno al 1508; forse allievo di Agostino Nifo, nipote del poeta e uomo d’arme Michele Marullo Tarcagnota, discendente dei Paleologhi, giovanissimo fu al servizio di Giovanni dalle Bande Nere e alla morte di questi divenne segretario di Galeazzo Florimonte. Nel 1542, lasciato il servizio presso il vescovo di Sessa, si trasferisce a Venezia dove, iniziata la propria attività di poligrafo con lo pseudonimo di Lucio Fauno, licenzia alcuni tra i volgarizzamenti più importanti della nostra traduzione letteraria rinascimentale.
