Storie di ordinaria corruzione. Libanio, Orazioni LVI, LVII, XLVI Introduzione, traduzione e commento storico
2010
Il volume mira a recuperare la dimensione storica e culturale del retore Libanio di Antiochia. Attraverso l'analisi interna e comparativa di tre discorsi, storicamente legati da un tema dominante, l'iniqua amministrazione del governo provinciale, e accomunati dal medesimo registro retorico, quello dello psogos, della denuncia pubblica e della condanna morale e politica di tre consulares Syriae, vengono documentate tutte una serie d trasformazioni: il passaggio da processo accusatorio a quello inquisitorio, la ferocia dell'interrogatorio sotto tortura, la diversificazione accentuata nel milieu curiale tra honorati e semplici buleuti, la concorrenza di un nuovo modello formativo, basato sul d…

Funzionamento del codice retorico e contenuti ideologici propri dell’autore: Libanio
2006
Through the internal analysis of Libanius of Antioch's Orations 46, 56 and 57, the work attempted to distinguish between the application and functioning of the rhetorical code and the author's own content, between rhetorical devices and ideological assumptions. The study of the density of rhetorical figures is the method of analysis used to verify the objectivity of the speaker's parrhesia
Elogio delle virtù nell’immagine politica di Giuliano in Libanio
2014
Libanius’ Julianic orations play an important role to move closer to knowledge of the interior portrait of this emperor. Julian’s personality is based on four virtues: philoponia, phronesis, philanthropia, sophrosyne. These virtues are panegyrical topoi in the eulogy of the rulers (Basilikos logos), and in the Libanian context they are freely reused, adapted to the present in order to return an image of Julian politically useful; all this doesn’t necessarily imply systematic distortion of the truth. In this connection, Julian’s political image is the exact opposite of the image of his predecessor: the reader is given the conviction that Constance, unlike Julian, would have achieved only a s…

Augusto e la politica limitanea in Africa: Cosso Cornelio Lentulo e il bellum Gaetulicum
2018
The present paper aims at analyzing the unrest of the tribes located in the south of the province of Africa and of the reign of Mauretania, that escaped Roman authority. In particular, the research dwells on the hostilities undertaken by the Gaetulians under the principate of Augustus, such as to determine the intervention of the proconsul of Africa Cossus Cornelius Lentulus, given the magnitude of the bellum and in view of the fact that the king of Mauretania Juba II was unable to quell the con+ict. Through the analysis of the sources (Florus, Cassius Dio, Orosius) we set ourselves the task of rebuilding the background, the phases of the war and the casus belli. The analysis stated the sig…

Vescovi, Sicilia, Mediterraneo nella tarda antichità.
2012
L’importanza storica, dottrinale, ecclesiologica, spirituale e sociale degli scritti dei vescovi siciliani nella tarda antichità è strettamente connessa alla peculiare mediterraneità della Sicilia coeva. In tal senso la forte tensione dell’odierna ricerca a una rinnovata teorizzazione di precise scelte metodologiche continua ad accompagnarsi a una sempre più sentita istanza di ricostruire un quadro storico di quella Sicilia e del suo contesto mediterraneo – nella cornice di un’Europa ‘allargata’ – sulla linea preferenziale di avvertiti interessi per la sua cultura religiosa, non meno che per le sue vicende politico-economico-sociali. Il volume raccoglie le relazioni di studiosi di estrazion…
Su alcuni proconsoli d’Asia all’epoca di Marco Aurelio (168-173): Kaisergeschichte e Kirchengeschichte tra fonti letterarie ed epigrafiche.
2014
A confrontation between epigraphic and literary sources is necessary to reconstruct the proconsular list of Asia for the mid reign of Marcus Aurelius (168-173 AD): in those years the province Asia was directly involved in Marcus' wars against barbarian raiders, especially the bellum Germanicum et Sarmaticum on the Danube (169-175) and the raids of Costobocs in the Balkans and Bastarnae in Anatolia (170-171). Therefore the imperial government ordered supplementary recruitments and new taxes. At the same time, the New Prophecy of Montanus, an apocalyptic Christian movement, broke out in Phrygia and Lydia (171-172) and the bishop of Laodikeia on the Lykos, Sagaris, was sentenced to death. Thes…
