About this title

Synopsis

Die Sphortias des Humanisten Francesco Filelfo (15. Jd.) war das erste veritable neulateinische Epos, das einen zeitgen�ssischen Helden in Szene setzte. Das Gedicht, das Filelfos G�nner Francesco Sforza, Herzog von Mailand, gewidmet ist, stie� fast sofort auf die heftige Kritik des Galeotto Marzio, eines Zeitgenossen Filelfos. Marzio prangerte in zwei polemischen Briefen die angeblichen literarischen und metrischen Schw�chen der Sphortias an. Obwohl Filelfo Abschriften an m�gliche G�nner in ganz Italien sandte, litt die Rezeption der Sphortias unter dem Fehlen einer Druckausgabe, was auch die moderne Forschung behindert hat. Der vorliegende Band bietet die editio princeps der Sphortias, erg�nzt durch kritische Editionen der anderen bedeutenden, aber gleichfalls kaum erforschten Werke Filelfos, in denen Sforza im Mittelpunkt das unver�ffentlichte Gedicht De Genuensium deditione, das 1464 anl�sslich der Unterwerfung Genuas unter die Herrschaft des Herzogs von Mailand verfasst wurde; die Oratio parentalis de divi Francisci Sphortiae Mediolanensium ducis felicitate, ein anspruchsvolles biographisches Lobgedicht, das 1467 aus Anlass des ersten Jahrestages von Sforzas Tod geschrieben wurde; und der vollst�ndige polemische Briefwechsel mit Galeotto Marzio.
