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…
La legge crudele. L’amministrazione della giustizia di Roma nel IV secolo d.C. tra amplificazione e realtà
2013
Realism and accuracy of the testimony by the rhetor Libanius of Antioch on the arbitrary administration of justice by the governors of Syriac metropolis impress the mark of cruelty upon the judicial practice of the time. The study of the criminal justice system leads to a sociological analysis, although the juridical and social status was losing importance in light of the gravity of the crimen.
Expresiones proverbiales y comedia en la Declamación XXVI de Libanio
2016
Publicado en el monográfico dedicado a: ΕΥΠΟΙΚΙΛΟΝ ΑΝΘΟΣ. Estudios sobre teatro griego en homenaje a Antonio Melero [ES] La Declamación XXVI de Libanio muestra a un misántropo que no soporta los ruidos y se ha casado con una charlatana. El tema de la excesiva locuacidad tiene un amplio reflejo en los proverbios –presentes también en la comedia–, que el autor utiliza para dar vida a su discurso y para caracterizar a sus personajes. [EN] The Declamation XXVI by Libanius shows a misanthrope who does not support noises and is married with a talkative woman. The topic of the excessive talkativeness has a broad reflection in proverbs –also present in the comedy–, which the author uses to breathe …
La vocazione centripeta. Una divergenza ideologica tra Libanio e Temistio di fronte alla prospettiva costantinopolitana dei buleuti di Antiochia
2016
Questa ricerca è incentrata su due personaggi, Temistio e Libanio, che sono esempio di intellettuali orientati verso una prospettiva volta a cogliere i profili di interazione sociale che la loro attività letteraria seppe contemplare. Se i due sono assimilabili per formazione culturale e professione, restano tuttavia ben distinti l’uno dall’altro per tutte le altre rispettive scelte di vita: dal 354 d.C. Libanio si stabilisce definitivamente ad Antiochia, un anno prima di quello in cui Temistio viene nominato senatore di Costantinopoli, inaugurando di seguito la sua carriera di intellettuale organico. L’opera di Temistio e quella di Libanio sono, in realtà, due manifestazioni tra loro antipo…
Abusi, terrore, violenza. Qualche esempio di ‘disfunzionamento’ nell’amministrazione della giustizia nel IV secolo d.C.
2012
With all the rhetorical amplification of some formulas, realism and accuracy of the testimony by the rhetor Libanius of Antioch on the arbitrary administration of justice by the governors of Syriac metropolis impress the mark of cruelty upon the judicial practice of the time: tortures to wrest confessions or testimonies distinguished themselves by their unusual brutality. The study of the criminal justice system leads to a sociological analysis, although the juridical and social status was losing importance in light of the gravity of the crimen.
Déchiffrement historique de l’écriture libanienne. À propos de Libanios, Discours 48 et 49
2016
The main theme, the direct relationship with the career of Libanius and the rhetorical common framework, unite at historical level the speeches 48 and 49. The evidence of these two speeches is of primary importance to know the institutional, legal, economic, and social situation in the second half of the 4th century A.D. Indeed, they document a series of transformations, or the appearance of new phenomena: the strong diversification of the curial class, and a broadening gap between the prôtoi and the mere bouleutai; the desertion of the boulai ; the rise in Antioch of new study subjects such as Latin and law. A twofold ideal can be inferred from these two Libanius’ speeches: on the one hand…
