Towards a philological characterization of don Enrique de Villena’s "Los doze trabajos de Hércules"
2019
Don Enrique de Aragón (c. 1384-1434) resulta una de las figuras más influyentes en el período del Humanismo peninsular. Su primera creación –Los doze trabajos de Hércules– constituye la primera interpretación mitológica del prerrenacimiento hispánico, al tiempo que constituye uno de los testimonios romances más antiguos del tópico de las armas y de las letras. Este artículo pretende caracterizar desde el punto de vista filológico sus rasgos de estilo más representativos, así como iniciar posibilidades re-novadas de estudio, centradas en la Fraseología hispánica medieval.

Huygens: lost ‒ regained ‒ revised. De literair-historische receptievan Constantijn Huygens in de eerste helftvan de 19e eeuwFrom the beginning of professional Dutch Studies M.

Losing Monarchs: The Legacy of German and English National Historiography
2017
During the nineteenth century, Leopold von Ranke, Johann Gustav Droysen, Alfred von Arneth, and other German-speaking historians established an alleged ‘scientific’ approach to history, based on the so-called historiographic method. They interpreted history as determined by ‘great’ ideas, such as nation, state, and religion. Similarly, the British Whig interpretation of history—represented, for example, by Henry Hallam and Thomas Macaulay—conceptualized history as a continuously ascending process, in which Great Britain established a civilised modern empire spanning territories on all continents. This chapter shows how monarchs became lost—that is, not considered noteworthy—when their rule …

Apporti al testo dell' <i>Orestis tragoedia</i> di Draconzio nell' Ottocento
2005
The textual contributions – about an hundred – produced either in the critical editions of the Dracontius’ Orestis tragoedia from 1858 to 1883, or in the works of Rothmaler (1865), L. Mu.ller (1866) and Rossberg (1878 / 79 / 83), are often obvious, but they are cometimes advantage due to laudable attention and right reflections. Notwithstanding, because of the many wrong marked gaps, transpositions and corrections, no edition presents an acceptable text of the epyllion.
The Hermeneutics of Texts
2002
The second canon is the canon of the whole and the parts and implies the hermeneutical circle between the whole and the parts: understanding the whole presupposes understanding the parts and vice versa. The task of this essay is not to solve the methodological difficulties of the practical application of the canon to texts and their contexts. Such a solution would require a complicated and lengthy investigation of the different aspects of the application of the canon to the methodology of philological text interpretation and historical research concerning the original contexts of texts. A brief sketch of one simple aspect of the application of the second canon will be given in the last sect…
Alexander Chak’s Correspondence – historical and artistic value of the Latvian cultural heritage
2013
Evaluating and grouping the literature historical relics, including the correspondences by letters between famous people, for a ground (base) we could take categories which demonstrate the qualities which have elements from the material world in an anent with a human. The cultural historian Fridrich Waidacher by researching the interconnection and selective values between material and spiritual world classified the evidences of material world in several chapters which are not strictly caged in permanent schemes (patterns). The division was made by taking F. Waidacher conception as a base and researching the correspondence by letters of Latvian poets and cultural workers: The potential value…
Il Dioniso delle "Baccanti" e i "piegatori di pini". Polivalenza di un'immagine leggendaria
2021
This paper investigates the mythical and ritual background of Dionysus’ representation as “fir-bender” in Euripides’ "Bacchae" (ll. 1061 ff.), in an attempt to shed light not only on the dramaturgical aspects of the tragic plot, but also on the cultural categories that make this representation intelligible to the Athenian audience at the end of the fifth century BC. Following Louis Gernet’s historical-anthropological approach based on the notion of "polyvalence des images", this paper aims to define a mythical pattern – the connection between the bending of a tree and the dismemberment of a human victim – already attested in the Attic legend of Theseus and Sinis, in which both characters se…
