L'epigramma «Ad Carolum regem Francorum» di Enea Silvio Piccolomini fra dimensione encomiastica e professione di poetica
2016
This paper offers a strict analysis of Enea Silvio Piccolomini’s epigram 24 Van Heck (Ad Carolum regem Francorum), composed by the young humanist in praise of Charles VII of Valois, king of France, in july 1429 – and then soon after his coronation, which had place at Reims the 17th of July 1429: an "epigramma longum" (46 hexameters), in which we can find the admiration and the courtly exaltation of the new king of France, and the conception (classic and, particularly, Horatian) of the poetry who can make eternal the glory of the famous men.

Coming to Know Epicurus’ Truth: Distributed Cognition in Lucretius’ De Rerum Natura
2020
Until recently, Descartes' idea that the human mind is, by definition, a non-extended entity (res cogitans, non extensa), enclosed in the body but constitutionally different from common bodily and external realities, found wide acceptance among students of cognitive sciences. But in the past few years the barriers between outer and inner worlds have begun to blur, projecting the process of cognition as a complex distributed phenomenon. According to the so-called distributed cognition thesis (and its more “radical” version, the extended mind hypothesis), “the thinker in this world is a very special medium that can provide coordination among many structured media – some internal, some externa…
Seneca on the Nature of Things: Moral Concerns and Theories of Matter in Natural Questions 6
2017
It is generally recognized that Lucretius' treatment of earthquakes and pestilences (6.535-607; 1090-1286) exerted great influence on Book 6 of Seneca's Natural Questions. But while a large consensus exists that both authors tend to emphasize the moral value of scientific knowledge, further research is needed with respect to Seneca's “technical” re-use of Epicurean physics and meteorology. In the present paper, I shall address this issue in three stages. First, I will analyze the structure and intellectual goals of Seneca's “doxographic” review of seismological theories (6.5-20). Far from being a doxographic account sensu proprio, such a careful review constructs the inspiring image of an i…

Potere, consenso e dissenso nell’Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degentium di Erchemperto
2021
Diversamente da quella narrata da Paolo Diacono nella «Historia Langobardorum», la storia dei Longobardi di Benevento fra l’VIII e il IX secolo, raccontata da Erchemperto nell’«Ystoriola Langobardorum Beneventum degentium», è una storia nella quale si alternano continuamente il bene e il male, Dio e Satana, il coraggio, la virtù, l’abnegazione da un lato e, dall’altro, la viltà, il tradimento, la perfidia. Personaggi positivi e personaggi negativi – insieme alle vicende delle quali, di volta in volta, essi sono protagonisti – si susseguono nell’«Ystoriola» a ritmo incalzante, e lo storico beneventano, talora in modo palese e scoperto, più spesso in maniera ellittica e sottintesa, manifesta …
Venantius Fortunatus - muistumat Ermoldus Nigelluksen eepoksessa Carmen in honorem Hludowichi Caesaris
2010
Carmen in honorem Hludowichi Caesaris on neljään kirjaan jakautuva, elegiseen mittaan kirjoitettu eepos, joka kuvaa Ludwig Hurskaan hallintokautta 800-luvun alusta 820-luvulle. Sen kirjoitti Ermoldus Nigellus -niminen kirkonmies tavoitteenaan päästä teoksen avulla maanpaosta. Ermolduksen kirjoituksista on säilynyt lisäksi kaksi Ludwigin pojalle Pippinille omistettua runokirjettä. Yksi tärkeimmistä Ermolduksen malleista oli Venantius Fortunatus (n. v. 540–600), joka tunnetaan parhaiten merovingikuninkaita ylistävästä panegyriikasta, Pyhän Martin (Martinus) runomuotoisesta elämäkerrasta sekä hymneistä Pange lingua ja Vexilla regis prodeunt. Karolingikaudella Venantiuksen runoja pidettiin arvo…
