Описание: Which famous poet treasured his copy of Homer, but could never learn Greek? What prompted diplomats to circulate a speech by Demosthenes – in Latin translation – when the Turks threatened to invade Europe? Why would enthusiastic Florentines crowd a lecture on the Roman Neoplatonist Plotinus, but underestimate the importance of Plato himself? Having all but disappeared during the Middle Ages, classical Greek would recover a position of importance – eventually equal to that of classical Latin - only after a series of surprising failures, chance encounters, and false starts. This important study of the rediscovery and growing influence of classical Greek scholarship in Italy from the 14th to the early 16th centuries is brought up to date in a new edition that reflects on the recent developments in the field of classical reception studies, and contains fully up-to-date references to aid students and scholars. From a leading authority on Greek palaeography in the English-speaking world, here is a complete account of the historic rediscovery of Greek philosophy, language and literature during the Renaissance, brought up-to-date for a modern audience of classicists, historians, and students and scholars of reception studies and the Classical Tradition.

Описание:

How grace shaped the Renaissance in Italy

"Grace" emerges as a keyword in the culture and society of sixteenth-century Italy. The Grace of the Italian Renaissance explores how it conveys and connects the most pressing ethical, social and aesthetic concerns of an age concerned with the reactivation of ancient ideas in a changing world. The book reassesses artists such as Francesco del Cossa, Raphael and Michelangelo and explores anew writers like Castiglione, Ariosto, Tullia d'Aragona and Vittoria Colonna. It shows how these artists and writers put grace at the heart of their work.

Grace, Ita Mac Carthy argues, came to be as contested as it was prized across a range of Renaissance Italian contexts. It characterised emerging styles in literature and the visual arts, shaped ideas about how best to behave at court and sparked controversy about social harmony and human salvation. For all these reasons, grace abounded in the Italian Renaissance, yet it remained hard to define. Mac Carthy explores what grace meant to theologians, artists, writers and philosophers, showing how it influenced their thinking about themselves, each other and the world.

Ambitiously conceived and elegantly written, this book portrays grace not as a stable formula of expression but as a web of interventions in culture and society.

Описание: This book examines the audiences and languages of Dominican sermons in late medieval Italy, analysing how Latinate theological culture interacted with popular religious devotion. It demonstrates that Dominican friars preached to an active contingent of laywomen, usually members of confraternities, who not only attended these sermons but re-read them and also disseminated them through book production to the wider Florentine community.

Описание: During WW II the Command and General Staff Colleges primary mission was to train large numbers of captains and majors to be staff officers in battalions, brigades, divisions, and corps. To that end, the Army provided copies of documents produced by field units to the College. Operations orders, after action reports, intelligence analyses, logistics appraisals, and similar documents are in the Combined Arms Research Library documents collection. The primary focus was documenting operations at the tactical and operational levels of warfare.

This handbook is a translation of Book Four of the Italian Civil Code (of obligations).

Описание: Le vicende storiche dalla dittatura di Mussolini fino allo scoppio e termine della II Guerra Mondiale con i primi anni della ricostruzione postbellica fanno da macrosfondo al rapporto d'amicizia epistolare tra due intellettuali italiani emigrati negli Stati Uniti, Giuseppe Antonio Borgese (1882-1952) e Giorgio La Piana (1878-1971). Due siciliani in terra americana: da una parte il celebre autore di Rube (1921), primo allievo di Croce, strenuo oppositore del fascismo; dall’altra un prete modernista, docente di storia della Chiesa ad Harvard, che si prodiga per integrare Borgese nel sistema americano. In un ampio arco temporale (1932–1952) si racconta l’esilio americano di Borgese, il suo interesse per la situazione politica italiana ed europea, per le vicende culturali e le sorti degli intellettuali contrari al regime.

Описание: I saggi qui raccolti riguardano, nel loro insieme, un solo argomento: l’opera di Francesco Guicciardini, osservata da prospettive volta per volta diverse e, insieme, convergenti. Il senso del libro e racchiuso nel titolo: «mutazione delle cose» e «pensieri nuovi». Guicciardini usa, non a caso, per se e per i suoi contemporanei, l’immagine delle «tenebre», in cui tutti si muovono. Il giudizio degli uomini si fonda unicamente sulla capacita di osservare mille dettagli, prevedere il loro possibile sviluppo, scegliere tra le soluzioni immanenti e incerte la piu adeguata, congetturando i molteplici effetti che accompagnano qualunque decisione. Questa smisurata tensione conoscitiva e, insieme, pratica prende in Guicciardini il nome vecchio e nuovo di «discrezione». Il mondo che Guicciardini ha davanti, da qualunque lato lo si osservi, deve essere scrutato fino ai minimi motivi. E per raccontarlo occorrono procedimenti, pensieri e «nomi nuovi».

Описание: Il 24 novembre 1960, a Parigi, in un bistrot della rue du Bac, nasce, per volonta di R. Queneau e F. Le Lionnais, l’Ouvroir de Litterature Potentielle (Oulipo). Non un movimento letterario, ne un laboratorio scientifico ma un gruppo di scrittori e di matematici che si propongono, attraverso un approccio «sistematico» e «scientifico», di rinnovare l’idea di letteratura e apportare nuova linfa vitale a quel dibattito culturale che, in Francia, negli anni Sessanta, rimette in questione il mito surrealista dell’ispirazione e si allontana da un’idea di letteratura engagee di matrice sartriana. Nello stesso periodo, Italo Calvino inizia a frequentare piu assiduamente Parigi e nel 1972 e eletto membre etranger di questo gruppo che, lontano dalla «gravita» della critica italiana, gli offre la possibilita di confrontarsi con una serie di modelli che giocheranno un ruolo fondamentale nella sua opera successiva. A partire da un approfondimento della retorica oulipiana, e attraverso un approccio «oulipocritico» alla produzione letteraria degli anni parigini di Calvino, il presente saggio ricostruisce le tappe fondamentali di questa storia fatta di «destini incrociati».
