Angelo Poliziano's <i>Lamia</i>: Text, Translation, and Introductory Studies: Brill's Studies in Intellectual History / Brill's Texts and Sources in Intellectual History, cartea 189/7

Autor Angelo Poliziano Contribuţii de Christopher Celenza, Francesco Caruso, Igor Candido, Denis J.-J. Robichaud
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 iun 2010
In 1492, Angelo Poliziano published his Lamia, a praelectio, or opening oration to a course he would teach that academic year on Aristotle’s Prior Analytics at the Florentine university. Having heard murmurings that he was not philosopher enough to teach the Aristotelian text, Poliziano strikes back, offering in effect a fable-tinted history of philosophy. More than a repudiation of local gossip, the text represents a rethinking of the mission of philosophy. This volume offers the first English translation, an edition of the Latin text, and four studies that set this rich example of humanist Latin writing in context.

Recenzii

"In the introduction, the editor remarks that the purpose of this book is to render Poliziano’s Lamia accessibly, and in the judgment of this reviewer, this standard has easily been met. The inclusion of an English translation and interpretive essays makes it an important complement to Wesseling’s earlier volume, whose detailed line-by-line commentary could conceivably be a cold plunge for some first-time students."
M.V. Dougherty, Ohio Dominican University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 64, No. 1 (Spring 2011), pp. 162-163.

‘’Thanks to Celenza and the contributors to this volume, all kinds of historians regardless of their skill in Latin, have a fascinating newly accessible text to use in their studies.’’
Brian Jeffrey Maxson, East Tennessee State University. In: Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol. 44, No. 1 (Spring 2013), pp. 179-180.

‘’Felicitazioni a C. Celenza e agli autori tutti per l’uscita di questo bel volume, che costituisce un eccellente complemento all’ed. Wesseling: questa nuova edizione della Lamia sara apprezzata da studiosi e docenti di filologia umanistica e di letteratura neolatina, e risultera di indubbio interesse anche per chi si occupa della storia degli studi greci nel XV secolo.’’
Luigi Silvano, Sapienza University of Rome. In: MEG, 11 (2011), p. 288.
