MERCES… SENTICOSA. Immaginari stoici nei Floridia di Apuleio
2020
Merces… senticosa. Stoic images in the Florida of Apuleius · In the Florida Apuleius makes use of images related to the rhetorical-philosophical stoic tradition. In particular, in Fl. 18 Apuleius describes the famous sophism of Protagoras, by using, trought an intellectual virtuosity, the metaphor of thorns, a stylistic device linked with the characterization of the Stoicism.
Sulla potuit, ego non potero? (Cic. Att. 9, 10, 2). Il mito di Silla tra Pompeo e Cesare
2020
Silla diventa ben presto un vero e proprio exemplum, prezioso, anche per la sua flessibilità, per costruire una cornice di interpretazione della realtà. E d’altra parte le vicende di Silla sembrano costituire non a caso anche un ottimo dossier su cui imbastire exercitationes di scuola. Con il mito di Silla si confrontano ancora Pompeo e Cesare, soprattutto nella riflessione di Cicerone che alla prevedibile ‘sillanità’ del Grande non manca di associare anche i tratti sillani di Cesare. Silla soon becomes a real exemplum, precious, also for its flexibility, to build a framework for the interpretation of reality. And on the other hand, the events of Silla seem not by chance also to constitute …

“…Quasi supellex pellionis…” A proposito dei versi 403-404 dei Menaechmi di Plauto
2021
Pl. Men. 403-404 has always had some exegetical problems. This paper re-examines the critical debate and proposes to interpret these verses as a complex metaphor: as it has already been suggested by Lambinus, supellex pellionis refers to the tanner, but contrary to common belief, it is explained through imaginary punishment and the erotic allusion.
Meritare il perdono, meritare la memoria: equilibrio del discorso e verdetto della storia nella pro Marcello di Cicerone
2017
In the pro Marcello Cicero focuses on the merits of Marcellus and Caesar. The Marcellus’ virtutes (in continuity with his familiar tradition) confirm that his return may not represent a danger; his exile indeed is a real damage to the Republic. The theme of memory then allows Cicero to meditate on Caesar's politics: only defending the integrity of the state with his clementia, the statesman will obtain glory and immortality. The issue about the responsibilities of the Pompeian pars is also examined: many people have followed Pompeius not for ideological choices but only because of an error. Then Caesar must be able to propose a ‘good’ victory, or, in other words, an ethical and political mo…
«Prendere ad esempio». Quando padri e figli sono innamorati (con una lettura di Sen. contr. ii 6)
2018
This paper investigates the theme of erotic rivalry between father and son in Roman declamation, particularly in Ps. Quint. decl. 356, Calp. decl. 37 and, especially, in Sen. contr. ii 6. The analysis emphasizes the decisive contribution of the comedy to outlining this kind of conflict, also interpreted according to Quintilian’s theoretical reflection on this scholastica materia.

Agrestis cum erudito: scenografie del discorso nell’Apologia di Apuleio
2017
In Apologia Apuleius’s speech shows a rich ‘geography’: private homes, shops, villas and inns are the ingredients of a rhetorical strategy aimed at emphasizing the cultural and ethical distance between accusation and defense. An important role is played by the topical contrast between the country and the city, used to make a strong impact on the public and on the judge and to dismantle and discredit 'a priori' the accusations. In Apologia, therefore, the places are not only the background to the trial but are also conceived as a scenery of the word and as a ‘visual’ instrument to outline the parties involved.
