Paperback. Condition: New. The volume offers an innovative and systematic exploration of the diverse ways in which Later Greek Epic interacts with the Latin literary tradition. Taking as a starting point the premise that it is probable for the Greek epic poets of the Late Antiquity to have been familiar with leading works of Latin poetry, either in the original or in translation, the contributions in this book pursue a new form of intertextuality, in which the leading epic poets of the Imperial era (Quintus of Smyrna, Triphiodorus, Nonnus, and the author of the Orphic Argonautica) engage with a range of models in inventive, complex, and often covert ways. Instead of asking, in other words, whether Greek authors used Latin models, we ask how they engaged with them and why they opted for certain choices and not for others. Through sophisticated discussions, it becomes clear that intertexts are usually systems that combine ideology, cultural traditions, and literary aesthetics in an inextricable fashion. The book will prove that Latin literature, far from being distinct from the Greek epic tradition of the imperial era, is an essential, indeed defining, component within a common literary and ideological heritage across the Roman empire.

Brossura. Condition: new. Nocera Superiore, 2026; br.(Quaderni di Historia Regni). A Napoli la carestia del 1764 fa temere lo scoppio di moti popolari, che la Corte tenta di prevenire ricorrendo alle tradizionali Cuccagne, allestite nell'attuale Piazza Plebiscito, dove commestibili di ogni sorta sono offerti per quattro domeniche al saccheggio della plebe. Inventato come dono del re al popolo, questo spreco costituisce l'elemento di un gioco più complesso: l'illusione dell'abbondanza fa dimenticare la penuria reale, il saccheggio reale esorcizza la rivolta. Ma i moti alla fine esplodono, e la paura e i sensi di colpa danno vita a lugubri processioni, durante le quali lo smembramento di un Cristo crocifisso ha i tratti oscuri di un arcaico rito sacrificale. Ricostruita su fonti in larga misura inedite o sconosciute, questa trama storiografica si situa al punto d'incontro tra la microstoria e gli scenari della grande politica, fornendo un vivido squarcio della Napoli borbonica. Libro.

Brossura. Condition: new. Nocera Superiore, 2025; br.(Aletheia-Svelamento). ĞModello di eroe popolare o guerriero feroce e sanguinario, il brigante è sempre, in vario modo, un trasgressore, e, in quanto tale non può non soccombere, perché l'esperienza dell'illecito nella sensibilità comune deve essere conciliata col senso morale e deve fare i conti con la necessità di accettare la dura realtà nei tempi lunghi della rassegnazione. Sotto questo aspetto il brigante rivela la sua natura di figura del proibito, destinata ad assumere nel suo tragico epilogo il ruolo del capro espiatorio, delegato dalla comunità a trasgredire in sua vece, eroe di una catastrofe annunciata e alla fine in qualche modo accettata, in quanto liberazione dalle tentazioni dell'impossibile e dalla fascinazione dell'abisso.ğ.
