Giovanni Boccaccio fra il Geta e l’Alda
2020
Il saggio si propone di registrare e di studiare le citazioni, le suggestioni, gli echi e le riscritture di due "commedie elegiache" latine del XII secolo, il Geta di Vitale di Blois e l'Alda di Guglielmo di Blois, operate da Giovanni Boccaccio nelle sue opere (segnatamente l'Elegia di madonna Fiammetta, l'Amorosa visione, il Ninfale fiesolano e, ovviamente, il Decameron). This essay aims to record and study the quotations, suggestions, echoes and rewrites of two 12th century Latin "elegiac comedies", Vitalis of Blois' Geta and William of Blois' Alda, made by Giovanni Boccaccio in his works (notably the Elegia di madonna Fiammetta, the Amorosa visione, the Ninfale Fiesolano and, obviously, …
Fonti, suggestioni e intersezioni classiche, tardoantiche e medievali nell’«Alda» di Guglielmo di Blois
2019
In questo saggio vengono studiate le fonti classiche, tardoantiche e medievali dell’«Alda», commedia elegiaca latina di Guglielmo di Blois (scritta verso il 1169-1170). In particolare, dopo una presentazione generale dell’opera e una rassegna critica degli studi e delle edizioni, ci si sofferma sulle suggestioni attinte a Terenzio, Virgilio, Orazio, Ovidio, Stazio, all’«Aegritudo Perdicae», Massimiano, Boezio, Ildeberto di Lavardin, ad alcune commedie elegiache del sec. XII (il «Geta» e l’«Aulularia» di Vitale di Blois, il «Pamphilus», la «Lidia» di Arnolfo d’Orléans) e alla tradizione novellistica “orientale” («Mischle Sendebar»). This essay is founded on the classical, late and medieval s…
Alfonso el Magnánimo, Valencia y la 'compra' de la jurisdicción de Morvedre (1416-1420)
2022
Estudio de base documental que examina a través de fuentes regias y municipales la con- fluencia de intereses entre la monarquía y las elites de la ciudad de Valencia, que determi- naron la resolución del conflicto jurisdiccional con la villa de Morvedre (actual Sagunt), en 1420. Pues dirimir entre la independencia de una villa real histórica que se mostró afín al bando liderado por el linaje nobiliario de los Centelles, partidarios del ascenso al trono de Fernando de Antequera durante el Interregno, o hacer prevalecer las relaciones de sinergia con el patriciado de la capital fue una de las primeras decisiones a las que se enfrentaron los Trastámara en el reino de Valencia.

Ceramics from Samshvilde (Georgia): A pilot archaeometric study
2020
Abstract This archaeometric study deals with seven samples of prehistoric pottery and, for the first time in Georgian studies, thirteen samples of glazed medieval pottery. All specimens were collected at Samshvilde, the most remarkable archaeological complex in southern Georgia and believed to represent locally-manufactured products. Two additional samples of raw materials composed of clay, silt, and sand were collected near the site and used to compare composition. Several analytical techniques were applied: Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Electron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF). The results allowed to build a c…
Inuentiones y translationes de S. Mercurio
2019
Inuentiones and translationes of the relics are part of the hagiographic dossier of a saint and provide interesting information about his cult over the centuries. For S. Mercurius of Caesarea the original texts in Greek have been lost, but we have two collections miracles in Coptic that narrate the inuentio and translatio of his relics and there is also a medieval tradition about his translatio to Benevento (Italy). From all these texts is deduced a healing cult of S. Mercurius based on the usual topics.

Tra diritto e politica: Andrea da Isernia e la Lectura al Liber Augustalis
2022
The essay analyzes and describes the commentary apparatus to the Liber Augustalis and the exegetical activity around the legislative work of Frederick II. Starting from the apparatus vetus, with the glosses of Andrea Bonello and of the mysterious glossator G., up to the ordinary gloss of Marino da Caramanico, the essay focuses mainly on the work of Andrea da Isernia. The Lectura Peregrina, composed at the beginning of the fourteenth century, is examined both in its content and in the various editorial forms in which it was published. Beginning with the editio princeps of 1472, by Sixtus Riessinger, the Lectura Peregrina underwent various editorial transformations until it was standardized a…
