L’ira come disvalore: Senofonte contro Omero
Anger as a disvalue: Xenophon versus Homer The paper analyzes the attestations of ὀργή, ὀργίζομαι and χαλεπαίνω in the corpus of Xenophon and compares the concept of anger that emerges with that found in the Homeric poems, particularly the Iliad. In Xenophon, anger is generally to be rejected, as it impairs clear judgment, leads to relational conflicts, and results in serious errors. Anger is considered acceptable only in situations of extreme ne…
Anabasi di Senofonte da una Prospettiva Socratica (on S. Brennan, Xenophon’s Anabasis: (A Socratic History)
l sottotitolo del volume fonde i due aspetti in cui viene abitualmente, ed erroneamente, divisa l'opera di Senofonte: la storia e il socratismo.L'autore lo spiega cos: 'The extent of this influence [sc.di Socrate] gives rise to the book's subtitle, "A Socratic History", which I explain as a narrative rooted in a historical event or period and in which the author embeds a reflection of the philosopher and his values' (p.viii).Se il Novecento aveva…

Il catalogo dei popoli italici nell’Eneide (7, 623-817) e i suoi modelli
Scopo del contributo è cercare di cogliere in che modo Virgilio rifunzionalizza elementi dell’epos arcaico ed ellenistico e anche propri di altri generi letterari e li utilizza come matrici per creare un nuovo epos. In particolare si è prestata attenzione al modo in cui Virgilio reinterpreta il catalogo epico intrecciando strategie proprie di generi letterari diversi (storiografia, tragedia, poesia eziologica, epos didascalico, poesia bucolica, e…

Hellenica Oxyrhynchia
The work's current title, Hellenica Oxyrhynchia , does not go back to its original author: the term Hellenica was used as a generic title for works dealing with Greek history that could have a variety of different subjects and approaches.
Senofonte e Tucidide: Una ricezione in negativo
Premesse Gli studi sui rapporti tra Tucidide e Senofonte si sono concentrati sulle Elleniche sia perché sono una continuazione dell’opera di Tucidide sia perché siamo condizionati dalle moderne categorie storico-letterarie e finiamo per sovrapporre all’antichità le griglie con cui organizziamo il sapere. In particolare un’erronea interpretazione dei confini del genere storiografico ha portato a non affrontare il confronto con le altre opere di Se…
Ombres de Thucydide: La réception de l’historien depuis l’Antiquité jusqu’au début du xxe siècle
Durant toute l’Antiquité, l’historien Thucydide a constitué une référence obligée et un modèle qui a inspiré nombre de continuateurs et d’imitateurs, en milieu grec et à Rome, que ce soit pour sa méthode ou pour les caractéristiques formelles de son œuvre. Cet engouement, qui a perduré jusqu’au Moyen Âge byzantin et ne s’est pas démenti à la Renaissance, redouble à partir du xviiie siècle, au moment où l’histoire se construit comme « science » : …
The Place of History in the Ancient World
According to a generally accepted opinion, the discovery of history in the western world is owed to the Greeks. One must admit, however, that history did not enjoy a privileged position within Greek culture; rather, its role was marginal whether we compare the study of history with other intellectual activities or try to examine its presence in education and in school. To begin, we must clear up several ambiguities. First, our concept of history-…
Thucydides Continued
Lo studio ricostruisce le prime fasi della fortuna di Tucidide, analizzando come un’opera che era dichiaratamente monografica e paradigmatica fu fraintesa dai suoi continuatori, i quali la considerarono un anello del ciclo storico. In questo modo si vuole contribuire alla storia del genere storiografico, nella varietà delle sue forme e nel rapporto con i modelli
Thucydides’ Archaeology: Between Epic and Oral Traditions
THE Archaeology in book 1 is the only place in Thucydides’ work where the history of Greece from the origins to the Persian wars is dealt with in a less than sporadic way. The present contribution will not attempt a comprehensive scrutiny of all the many problems raised by the Archaeology. It will rather suggest an interpretation of this text which helps to understand its function within the frame work of Thucydides’ work. In the Archaeology Thuc…
