2012réf. 26644Fabrizio Serra Editore. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Softcover. Very light shelfwear to book and DJ.; Il ritorno dell'interesse sul poeta Publio Papinio Stazio che negli anni di Domiziano indirizzò la sua maggiore opera all'epos tragico tebano La Tebaide che racconta della lotta fratricida tra Eteocle e Polinice per la successione al trono di Tebe trova molteplici spiegazioni negli studi che si sono sviluppati sull'onda di un rinnovato interesse per la letteratura dell'età flavia. La Tebaide è stata negli ultimi decenni oggetto di un ricco dibattito focalizzato sulla complessità ideologica e letteraria dell'opera. Sull'onda degli studi sulla lingua inquieta del racconto epico la scelta dell'autore è stata quella di analizzare gli 819 versi che costituiscono il dodicesimo e ultimo libro. Esso propone infatti la riapertura inaspettata di un conflitto che sembrava risolto e che si dirama in numerose trame del racconto. La tensione è tra Eteocle e Polinice; tra due stirpi quella argiva e quella tebana; tra il 'maschile' e il 'femminile'; tra Creonte e Teseo; tra la pace e la guerra; tra il furor e l'armonia dell'equilibrio tra il pianto del luctus e la gioia sfrenata che sembrano coesistere con sinistri accenti di inquietudine negli ultimi versi della narrazione. La lingua si fa specchio e cassa di risonanza di una polisemia e di polarità non risolte: attraverso gli strumenti retorici della negazione dell'enallage dell'uso allusivo di alcuni lessemi Stazio veicola un potenziale di ambiguità stilistica che riflette il disordine di un cosmo non pacificato. La prospettiva filologica sulla quale è basato questo lavoro rivendica alla lingua un livello di sapere profondo che permea insieme l'ideologia la costruzione dei personaggi la trama delle ricche relazioni intratestuali e intertestuali. La lettura di questo 'canto' della Tebaide interessa quindi intimamente il senso ultimo dell'epos tutto contribuendo alla formazione di ipotesi sulla sua struttura sulla sua composizione e sul suo messaggio di fondo.; Altera 2; 194 pages . 2012. 8862274521 .

Else fine.; Il passaggio dalla Repubblica all'Impero continuamente si ripropone come questione cruciale negli studi su Roma antica e continuamente richiede rimeditazioni revisioni ritorni sia per l'arricchirsi della documentazione sia soprattutto per il continuo mutare delle prospettive da cui gli studiosi guardano a una fase della storia che tanto intensamente li sollecita anche attraverso molteplici suggestioni derivate dall'esperienza del presente. I capitoli di questo libro scritti da specialisti di aspetti diversi della civiltà antica - letteratura filosofia storia diritto - si riconducono ciascuno su linee proprie a quel grande tema considerandolo prevalentemente sul piano della storia intellettuale: la diversità delle situazioni e I processi di transizione nelle istituzioni politiche giuridiche e sociali e nel costume sono osservati attraverso lo sguardo di autori antichi che esplicitamente ne parlano o che ne sono in vario modo condizionati nella loro opera. Il coinvolgimento dell'attività intellettuale e letteraria nella situazione della comunità - il nesso tra letteratura e civitas - è la prospettiva problematica su cui è organizzato il volume. Ed è la prospettiva dominante nelle ricerche di Emanuele Narducci l'insigne studioso della letteratura di Roma antica alla cui memoria quest'opera è dedicata.

A few correction by Fantham in pencil. Very light shelfwear to DJ.; This book traces the transmission and reception of one of the most influential novels in Western literature. The Golden Ass the only ancient Roman novel to survive in its entirety tells of a young man changed into an ass by magic and his bawdy adventures and narrow escapes before the goddess Isis changes him back again. Its centerpiece is the famous story of Cupid and Psyche. Julia Gaisser follows Apuleius' racy tale from antiquity through the sixteenth century tracing its journey from roll to codex in fourth-century Rome into the medieval library of Monte Cassino into the hands of Italian humanists into print and finally over the Alps and into translation in Spanish French German and English. She demonstrates that the novel's reception was linked with Apuleius' reputation as a philosopher and the persona he projected in his works. She relates Apuleius and the Golden Ass to a diverse cast of important literary and historical figures--including Augustine Fulgentius Petrarch Boccaccio Bessarion Boiardo and Beroaldo. Paying equal attention to the novel's transmission how it survived and its reception how it was interpreted she places the work in its many different historical contexts examining its representation in art literary imitation allegory scholarly commentary and translation. The volume contains several appendixes including an annotated list of the manuscripts of the Golden Ass.; Martin Classical Lectures; 408 pages; Signed by Author . 2008. 0691131368 .
