La Correspondance De Guillaume Budé Et Juan Luis Vives

55,65€ + 10% CARD

 <div>Témoignage intéressant sur la vie intellectuelle et la vie tout court des grands humanistes</div><div>Le présent recueil entend apporter une nouvelle contribution à la connaissance des écrits des grands humanistes du 15ème au 16ème siècle. Certes, le volume consacré à l’échange de lettres entre Budé et Vives est mince: il ne comporte que dix lettres au total. Malgré leur petit nombre, ces lettres apportent indéniablement, à l’instar des lettres publiées précédemment, un témoignage intéressant sur la vie intellectuelle, voire, dans le cas de Budé, sur la vie tout court d’humanistes. Toutes les lettres sont accompagnées d''un commentaire exhaustif et d’une traduction française, ainsi que d’un index nominum et d’un index fontium.</div><div> </div><div>Interesting testimony to the intellectual life and life itself of the great humanists</div><div>This book aims to make a new contribution to the knowledge on writings of the great humanists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Certainly, the volume on the exchange of letters between Budé and Vives is thin: it has only ten letters. Despite the small number, these letters undeniably bring an interesting testimony to the intellectual life or, in the case of Budé, on life itself of the humanists. All letters are accompanied by an exhaustive commentary and a French translation, as well as an index fontium and an index nominum. Introduction, édition critique et annotations par Gilbert Tournoy.

Studies In The Latin Literature And Epigraphy Of Italian Fascism

70,23€ + 10% CARD

 Firstcollected volume dealing with the use of Latin under FascismThis book deals withthe use of Latin as a literary and epigraphic language under Italian Fascism(1922-1943). The myth of Rome lay at the heart of Italian Fascist ideology, andthe ancient language of Rome, too, played an important role in the regime’s culturalpolitics. This collection deepens our understanding of ‘Fascist Latinity’,presents a range of previously little-known material, and opens up a number ofnew avenues of research. The chapters explore the pivotal role of Latin inconstructing a link between ancient Rome and Fascist Italy; the differentsocial and cultural contexts in which Latin texts functioned in the ventennio fascista; and the way in which‘Fascist Latinity’ relied on, and manipulated, the ‘myth of Rome’ of latenineteenth- and early twentieth-century Italy. Contributors: William Barton (Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Neo-LatinStudies), Xavier van Binnebeke (KU Leuven), Paolo Fedeli (Università degliStudi di Bari Aldo Moro), Han Lamers (University of Oslo), Johanna Luggin(Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Neo-Latin Studies), Antonino Nastasi (Rome),Bettina Reitz-Joosse (University of Groningen), Dirk Sacré (KU Leuven), ValerioSanzotta (Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Neo-Latin Studies), Wolfgang Strobl(Toblach).

John Milton, Epistolarum Familiarium Liber Unus And Uncollected Letters - Edited With Introduction, Translation, And Commentary

106,00€ + 10% CARD

 Firstfull-scale edition of John Milton’s Latin and uncollected vernacular letters John Milton holds animpressive place within the rich tradition of neo-Latin epistolography. His Epistolae Familiares and uncollectedletters paint an invigorating portrait of the artist as a young man, offeringinsight into his reading programme, his views on education, friendship, poetry,his relations with continental literati, his blindness, and his role as LatinSecretary. This edition presents a modernised Latin text and a facing Englishtranslation, complemented by a detailed introduction and a comprehensive commentary.Situating Milton’s letters in relation to the classical, pedagogical,neo-Latin, and vernacular contexts at the heart of their composition, itpresents fresh evidence in regard to Milton’s relationships with the Italianphilologist Benedetto Buonmattei, the Greek humanist Leonard Philaras, theradical pastor Jean de Labadie, and the German diplomat Peter Heimbach. It alsoannounces several new discoveries, most notably a manuscript of HenryOldenburg’s transcription of Ep. Fam. 25.This volume fills an important gap in Milton scholarship, and will prove ofparticular use to Milton scholars, students, philologists, neo-Latinists, andthose interested in the humanist reinvention of the epistolographic tradition.

Spanish Humanism On The Verge Of The Picaresque - Juan Maldonado’S Ludus Chartarum, Pastor Bonus And Bacchanalia

58,30€ + 10% CARD

 The 16th-century humanist Juan Maldonado in his Latin essays foreshadows the Spanish picaresque. Like Erasmus, with whom he corresponded,Maldonado advocated the use of Latin in a wide-range of activities. Maldonado’s Pastor Bonus, a lengthy open letter to a bishop, reviews in a vivid and satirical style the abuses of the churchmen in his diocese. His ludus chartarum is framed as a colloquium similar to Vives’ on the subject, entertaining while teaching a Latin terminology for card playing. His Bacchanalia, written for student actors, is a spirited play pitting the forces of Lent against those of Bacchus, as in the Libro de buen amor. These works have been edited and translated into English by Warren Smith and Clark Colahan for the first time, with illustrations of scenes from each work, and of 16th-century cards, by Richard Simmons and Caleb Smith.

Scottish Latin Authors In Print Up To 1700 - A Short-Title List

by Deborah Ford, Philip Burton e Roger Green

68,90€ + 10% CARD

 The first-ever bibliography of Scottish Latin authors in printThe work of the Latin writers of Scotland has suffered a neglect which its variety, copiousness, and intrinsic interest do not deserve. Their importance, and the importance of Latin as a literary language, is beginning to be recognized by scholars. Researchers from the universities of Glasgow and St. Andrews have now prepared the first-ever bibliography of Scottish Latin in print - unique both in its focus on the many works written in Latin and in the way in which Scottish writers are specifically targeted. Covering the years c. 1480-1700, this new reference tool carefully catalogues the work of some 500 writers, in both prose and verse. Thousands of works are named in a clear and original format, with their titles not so truncated as to be obscure (as sometimes happens in English ‘short-title'' catalogues). The editors take advantage of recent research, and many poetic works hitherto unknown or ignored are referenced. This ground-breaking reference work will be essential not only for those who study the progress of humanism and the history and literature of early modern Scotland, but also for those engaged in various kinds of research into the events and ideas of continental Europe, with which Scotland was closely linked in many ways.

New Sense Of The Past: The Scholarship Of Biondo Flavio (1392-1463)

68,90€ + 10% CARD

 Reappraisal of the pioneering humanist scholar Biondo Flavio During his lifetime the historian and antiquarian Biondo Flavio (1392- 1463) struggled to obtain recognition as a major contributor to the humanistic movement of the fifteenth century. Throughout the Renaissance, fellow Italian scholars far too often condemned rather than endorsed his scholarly works. His troublesome career and mixed reputation among his peers stand in stark contrast with the highly innovative character of his learning, which proved to be ground-breaking for the further development of various strands of historical and antiquarian research in the Early Modern Age. The authors of this volume aim to contribute to a reappraisal of this pioneering humanist scholar by a fresh assessment of his major writings in the fields of historical linguistics, historiography, Roman topography, and historical geography. Contributors Angelo Mazzocco (Mount Holyoke College), Marc Laureys (Universität Bonn), Giuseppe Marcellino (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa), Fulvio Delle Donne (Università della Basilicata), Fabio Della Schiava (Universität Bonn), Paolo Pontari (Università di Pisa), Catherine Castner (University of South Carolina), Jeffrey White (St. Bonaventure University), Frances Muecke (University of Sydney)
