Le motif du médecin tyran de Platon à Galien
2014
At various points in Method of medicine and in a passage in the Commentary on the Hippocratic Epidemics Galen takes up the image of the tyrant doctor employed by Plato in the famous passage in the Laws in which, to illustrate the role of the proem to the law, he introduces the contrast between doctors of freemen and doctors of slaves (Leg. IV 719e 8-720e 5) : this is an unexplored chapter of Galen’s Platonism.

La crisi italiana, i turchi, l'altro. Una lettura del XVII canto dell'Orlando furioso
2018
Il XVII canto dell’Orlando furioso non rientra nel novero dei luoghi ariosteschi irrinunciabili, essendo ritenuto uno di quei canti di raccordo necessari all’ordito della narrazione. Tuttavia, l’invettiva che vi è contenuta merita ancora qualche supplemento di indagine, sulla scorta di alcuni studi recenti. La sua peculiarità va rintracciata nello spazio letterario del classicismo civile del primo Cinquecento, al quale è accostabile per temi, modi forme, tenendo ovviamente conto del più ampio quadro della crisi politica e culturale del Rinascimento italiano. Questa rilettura consente di ritenere il tema dell’incontro/scontro con la potenza ottomana e la sua cultura ben più che una occasiona…

Né uomo né bestia. Riflessioni sulla Theriotes a partire dal VII libro dell’Etica Nicomachea
2010
In the Book VII of the Nichomachean Ethics Aristotle briefly analyzes the concept of theriotes. According to the Stagyrite, as it is well known, someone who does not feel the need to live in a community is either a beast or a god. Only a few human beings abandon their natural position between the two to move, either through exceptional virtue towards the gods, or, because of theriotes. In this sense, theriotes is once again an anthropopoietic quality that defines the Other. Despite the name, it is an entirely human deviation, characterised by an unusually cruel and monstruos behaviour, over the borderline of the moral evaluation. By this might be meant either the barbarian (among barbarians…
Il femminile come alterità in Aristotele
2006
In the Corpus of his biological works, Aristotle investigates the fulfillment of the vital functions of all living beings, which, according to the philosopher’s teleological vision, rank in a hierarchy at whose top is Man, by excellence the complete and perfect being. In such a representation, a description of the female nature finds its place as well, also considered for each animal species and ranking in the same hierarchy. Aristotle’s reflection on the female, both from the physiological and the psychological-behavioral point of view, is always set in relation with the corresponding male. A female nature does not exist by itself, with its own well defined identity, but its characteristic…
Aggressivita' e istinto materno nella zoologia aristotelica: l'identita' sessuale tra maschile e femminile.
2010
As it appears in the Aristotelian Biological Corpus, male and female of the different species of animals differs in characters and, consequently, in their body constitutions. Since nature does nothing in vain, the former are courageus and made for a more active and violent life, and, for this reason, are endowed with natural weapons as horns, and stings. The latter are fearful and fragile, made for the care of offspring. There is a very close correspondence between body parts and attitudes and sexual behaviour: when the one changes, the others modify in the same way. There is just one period, during females life, in which their behaviour become naturally aggressive ad courageous in order to…
Il coraggio in Aristotele. Tra virtù maschile e identità femminile.
2005
Aristotle dedicates the Book II of the Nichomachean Ethics to his reflection on the virtue of courage. As far as the defence of the polis is concerned, courage is a proper civic virtue and, consequently, it belongs to male nature. From the other side, as it appears also in the Politics, women are endowed with a different kind of virtue, related to the care of the oikos and the offspring. In fact, as it is explained in Biological works, female and male body constitutions and characters differs because of their different social roles. Nonetheless, in biology, in the act of defending their offspring, female of a large variety of animal species are presented as courageous and fearless, by using…
