Full textAlmost immediately upon its publication in the definitive third edition in 1532, Ariosto’s Orlando Furioso became an important site, frequently a hotly contest one, of critical investigation, and it has remarne such throughout most of the history of its reception. It was the first poem in the European literary tradition to sustain an ongoing debate about its canonicity. Early critics such as Giovanni Battista Giraldi Cinzio and his protégé Giovanni Battista Pigna were interested in legitimating Ariosto’s poem through a variety of strategies, including affiliating it to canonical works of antiquity, many of wich had originally influenced Ariosto’s shaping of the Orlando Furioso’s narrative. Legitimating the Orlando Furioso in this way also contributed to the ongoing process in the cinquecento of arguing for the value of the vernacular language in which it was written. The canonization of the Orlando Furioso as a new kind of vernacular classic was simultaneously a victory for the italian language and for Ariosto’s hometown of Ferrara. By the middle of the cinquecento Ariosto was readily referred to as the Ferrarese Homer and often represented in classical profile wearing the laurel crown, a simboli marker that his own poetic excellence had mathced that of the classical touchstones. Even in early descriptions of the poet’s life, biographers emphasized what they perceived to be a Virgilian track to his career in his progress from smaller poetic genres to his larger poem. A crucial point of contention in these first debates on the Orlando Furioso’s status as a vernacular classic was the poem’s narrative design, specifically the extent to which it resembled a classical epic and/or a medieval romance. Bembo had promoted Petrarca and Boccaccio as models for Italian lyric and prose, respectively, but there was no idealized equivalent for narrative poetry in the vernacular. As early as 1540s, Ariosto’s poem was positioned to satisfy the need for such an Italian model. It was in these same years that Italian critical discourse was being shake by the reception of Aristotle’s Poetics and Horace’s Ars poetica, whose strictures of a unified narrative design were contradicted by Ariosto’s poem. Accordingly, the Orlando Furioso landed at the center o fan acromonious debate between neoclassical Aristotelians who found Ariosto’s narrative wanting in epic features and other critical readers who sought to justify the romance qualities of its narrative design. The primary criticism against the poem was that its plot focused on many actions of numerous characters rather than a single unifying action of one heroic character. In addition, many Aristotelians interpreted the intermittent interventions of the narrator into the narrative as a breach of epic decorum. Finally, the poem lacce verisimilitude. Strategie sto efendi the Orlando Furioso against these criticism varied. Some readers emphasized those features of the poem that did indie recall classical epic, for example, its many allusions to Virgil’s Aeneid and the occasional allusion to Homeric poetry. Ariosto’s re cycling of classical similes from Virgil and Homer was a case in point. In this way, these classicizing critics countered that the Orlando Furioso, despite appearances to the contrary, was much more epic than the untutored reader might regognize. An intriguing tactic adepte Lodovico Dolce, among others, was to affiliate the Orlando Furioso with those poems of antiquity that were themselves somewhat less than faithful to the canonical standards of classical epic narrative. Ovid’s Metamorphoses played an important role in this renard. This strategy proved so successful that subsequent Italian translators of Ovid’s poem frequently created the impression in their renderings that the Latin work was a romance-epic poem akin to Ariosto’s. Moreover, Venetian publishers packaged these italianized classics in editions that in many ways looked like the Orlando Furioso in order to capitalize on Ariosto’s poem’s critical fortune. This proved a successful marketing ploy, for readers had begun to expert that literary narratives, even classical ones, should conform to the parameters of Ariosto’s poem. By the second half of the sixteenth century, the Orlando Furioso had become the touchstone of narrative art. In the and, although critics could not always agree on what to call it (epic, romance, romance-epic) and chete or noti t should be canonized a vernacular classic, Orlando Furioso’s popularity surged among general readers.

Full textThe goal of the present dissertation is to analyze the lexicon of chivalry found in Ariosto’s Orlando furioso. By taking into account the structure of the first two verses of the proem, this work has been subdivided into two parts: «The lexicon of fighting», where the terms relevant to the knight’s warfare are analyzed, and «The lexicon of morals», where I deal with the terms describing the characters’ inner world. About the first topic, special attention has been paid to two noteworthy features of the poem: one is the absence of the term duello, notwithstanding the numerous single combats described in the work; the other is the anachronistic appearance of a firearm, which had not yet been invented at the time in which the poem is set. About the second topic, after selecting and summarizing a few episodes where the characters’ moral profiles emerge clearly, I extracted from these episodes the moral terms, paying special attention to the combinations of two (or more) terms and limiting the scope of my inquiry to the cases in which such combinations are used in a strictly moral sense. By analyzing the combinations both from a formal and a semantic viewpoint, paying special attention to the different types of relationship between the members of the various combinations (e.g. synonymy, antonymy or variation), I tried to work out in what sense the poet understood (or chose to interpret) the terms in question; to achieve this, a very useful method has also been to compare Ariosto’s choices with those of other authors.

Full textThis dissertation investigates the relationships between architecture and literature. Its aim is to understand in which way literature describes and represents architecture. After an examination of the similitude between these two disciplines, an analysis is made on the rhetoric of the architectural description. The manners of the “ut architectura poesis” are represented by the concepts ekphrasis, descriptio, enargeia, evidentia, amplificatio and digressio. Architectural description was formalised in poetry through the Progymnasmata, ancient Greek rhetoric exercises for the orator. Here, the representation of imaginary places is called Topothesia. Once the link between the two arts is explained, the dissertation focalises on the analysis of the architectural description in the Orlando furioso (the “Orlando enraged”) by Ludovico Ariosto. We consider especially the last redaction of the manuscript which took place in Ferrara in 1532. In the poem appear many architectural buildings. Few of them emulate the architectural mania of the Renaissance nor the typical buildings of the period. Others represent the original fantasy of the poet. Through architecture, the Orlando furioso reveals a deep relation with the court of Ferrara and the Este’s family. Many architectural descriptions are dedicated to the court and work in praise of their power. Moreover, and on a deeper level, architecture operates as a mise en abyme of the story, a metaphor which plays like a mirror with the plot of the Orlando furioso

Lo studio, condotto su un campione esemplificativo di sedici canti, corrispondente a circa un terzo del poema, nella sua prima parte approfondisce l'utilizzo ariostesco dei costituenti della frase semplice (quali articolo, pronome, aggettivo, avverbio, preposizione, congiunzione e verbo), e indaga alcuni aspetti della sintassi del periodo di natura più propriamente grammaticale, quali l'utilizzo alternativo di indicativo e congiuntivo nelle dipendenti e la costruzione del periodo ipotetico; mentre nella seconda illustra le principali modalità di costruzione del periodo complesso, messe in relazione con la struttura e il ritmo dell'ottava, oltre che con le differenti situazioni narrative dell'opera, analizzandone lo sviluppo lungo la linea orizzontale e l'articolazione sull'asse verticale. L'ultima parte è infine riservata allo studio dei fenomeni retorici più strettamente connessi alla costruzione sintattico-ritmica dell'ottava, riguardanti in particolare l'ordine delle parole, le varie forme di simmetria, parallelismo e accumulazione lessicale, e l'impiego dell'inarcatura, classificati in base alla natura sintattica dei sintagmi coinvolti e alla collocazione all'interno dell'organismo metrico

Full textDuring Italian Renaissance, in the midst of a war situation and uncertainties, in a courtesan society permeated with apparent relationships motivated by political and personal interests comes Orlando Furioso, a novel of chivalry worked for nearly thirty years for Ludovico Ariosto, literati at the court of Ferrara, who dedicates his poem to Ippolito dEste, his master and patron. Despite being a novel of chivalry, Ariosto leaves marks on it that help us understand a little of the society in which author and work were inserted through mainly reflections of the narrator which arises as historically determined character; this spatiotemporal mixture just granted a parodic character to the text of Ariosto. Before that, our study aims to analyze the ambiguous behavior of narrative voice (that either shows itself omniscient, or compares itself to Carolingian knights errant) and the main female character of the Furioso, Angelica, seeking to relate such behavior to the social environment in which it gives the composition of the work to which the narrator demonstrates belong

Full textIn this doctoral thesis, consideration is given to Orlando Furioso and his visual and moral interpretations of the 16th century by examining the many editions of the period, whose rich paratext, images, allegorie, argomenti, has had a great impact on their ‘moralised’ reception et on the circulation of the work.By analysing the interaction of the paratextual elements, attention has been given to the concept of ‘depicted vice’, that is to say images of dwarfs, giants and animals charged with an important moral role and having a strong visual impact. Indeed, the editors have given special attention to all the paratextual elements qui make Orlando Furioso an exemplary work from the perspective of its language, style, rhetoric and ethics and these have contributed to the canonisation of the poem.Moreover, this canonisation went through one of the fiercest debates in Italian literary history in the second half of the 16th century. Through a new analysis of the principal treatises of the 16th century on poetry and rhetoric, it was possible to see that those involved in this debate, the ‘classicists’ and the ‘modernists’, have put at the heart of their diatribe Ariosto’s ability to bring a concept into a visual form, whilst at the same time associating this visual power of author’s writings with the moral discussion of the poem and its ability to ‘delectare’ in order to ‘docere’ better.These results have also been confirmed by two of the most important interpretations of Orlando Furioso by Campanella and Montaigne, whose interpretations are both ‘visual’ and ‘moral’.The influence of the Italian editions on other editions published beyond the peninsula’s border has also been verified. By following the phases in the circulation of the Italian version of Orlando Furioso in France, but also in a foreign language, it has been possible to confirm the importance of paratextual factors on the circulation and the reception of the work. Starting from a textual (the editions) and formal (the paratext) approach and moving through an interpretative study (the analysis of the "visual" and "moral" value of the paratextual elements), it is concluded that, through successive editions, Orlando Furioso gradually becomes a repository of moral guidance and iconic fragments – raw materials, giving it a new coherence in rhetoric, art and ethics

Full textEl Renacimiento Europeo de los siglos XV y XVI se plantea como un vaso comunicante entre dos épocas: culmina los profundos cambios en la percepción y definición del mundo iniciados en el medioevo tardío, para así inaugurar gran parte de las preocupaciones de la modernidad, al punto de llevar a algunos autores a hablar de “primera modernidad” en tal período. Entre los cambios producidos en aquél se encuentra la revaloración del sujeto como entidad individual y libre inserta en la vita activa. Con ello, el trabajo de letrados laicos en el período aumentó notablemente, producto de las nuevas formas de instrucción pero sobre todo por la revaloración de las fuentes latinas. A partir de ello, los autores incorporaron nuevos modos de expresión y releyeron los tópicos latinos según las necesidades de los nuevos tiempos, generando un nuevo imaginario. Nuestro Seminario tomó los conceptos de Locura y Carnaval como acercamiento a esta nueva concepción, pues son precisamente aquéllos los que instauran un campo de acción para las innovaciones formales y conceptuales que propiciaron este cambio en la actitud del hombre del Renacimiento en sus expresiones culturales.

Full textThe main goal of this dissertation is to understand the changing of themes in João de Minas\' literary work (pseudonym of the journalist Ariosto Palombo, 1896-1984), author of 12 books published in 1929-1936. The methodology used was to analyze the themes of his stories, searching how the writer configured the literary \"world of the work\", that show us the choices and the main themes used by the writer in that time. Several changes in the themes of his literary work concern the impact which the \"1930\'s Revolution\" had in his life. For João de Minas, due to his ancient links with Paulista Republican Party, the \"revolution\" brought a feeling of a social displacement that lead him, since 1934, to treat critically of history, society and politics of his time. That feeling affected the author\'s literature: he stopped writing about a far and unknown reality of wilderness or support oligarchic established regime, which lasted until 1930, and began to reflect distant and ironically about customs and problems of urban life. Unattached to PRP, João de Minas was free to draw what he saw as the obscene in political and social life of the great cities.

Full textAriosto's Orlando furioso offers a countless multitude of plots for the baroque opera. Our corpus is composed of eighty librettos and also of some dramatic plays and ballets, presented in the appendix. This thesis intends to consider why Ariosto's heroes disappeared from European scenes, while they lost their aura, by taking in account the main lines of operatic history. Firstly, we would like to accent the circulation of the plots between cultural areas and to analyze the different literary, political and factual influences that can alter the original text. Then, our purpose is to examine the ariostan plasticity, which suits to all the contexts and explains the ambivalent generic posterity of the epic romance on operatic stages, either comic or serious. Finally, we want to highlight that the most adapted episodes are related to excess and desire. The both characters, that carry these themes, meet an opposite fate. Orlando's most achieved treatments subvert more and more the generic conventions, by reducing his comic aspect, whereas Alcina loses her serious nature and becomes a comic figure

Full textThe aim of this thesis is to analyze the construction of writer image and reception of João de Minas books, pseudonym of Ariosto Palombo (1896-1984), in the Brazilian literary field between 1927 and 1989. We conducted documentary research in books, newspapers and magazines to locate texts of his own and opinions about his person and his works. The analysis of the writer activities is focused on three moments: loyalist journalist (1927-1930), who published texts about brazilian wilderness and articles in defense of the oligarchies headed by Paulista Republican Party; a popular writer (1934-1937), active in pulp fiction like adventure novel, women and erotic fiction, and detective stories, quite widespread at that time; and prophet (1935-1969), creator of an eclectic religion that blended kardecism, Catholicism, Protestantism, umbanda and esotericism. Opinions about João de Minas and his books had changed as the popular direction of his activities was intensified: in 1929, he became famous for being recognized as promising literary talent by writers members of the Brazilian Academy of Letters; after 1934 was criticized by aggressive self-promotion and bad taste language of his books focused on general public; and his turn to religion stressed among intellectuals and writers an image of opportunist and upstart about João de Minas, that took his name to be erased from national literary histories and encyclopedias.

Full textThis doctoral dissertation presents an interpretation of Ludovico Ariosto’s Orlando furioso as an eminently comic and ambivalent text, in which the Medieval and the Renaissance traditions merge. That is, Ariosto parodies the topics and stereotypes from the preceding European literature, according to the ideas defended by the most progressive humanists, who do not support the traditional vision of the human being conceived as the animal rationalis anymore. In this respect, these humanist thinkers and artists put an end to the judgement’s primacy in order to defend passion and irrationality, at the same time they establish madness as the universal law that rules the human world. This discussion takes its proper form in the contentious Renaissance matter “saggezza-follia”, in which the Furioso takes part by presenting an apology of the passional animal. By analyzing on one hand, the Dialectic of Desire and Orlando’s frenzy on the other, this research demonstrates that madness and irony (the two concepts that explicitly and implicitly form the title) are the axis of the poem, which determines not only its form but also its structure and content. The final aim seeks the ironic tone on the poem, the widely known ironia ariostesca (in his double dimension: conceptual or structural and literary or stylistic), as the main feature and the interpretative key of the whole text. This irony can not be disjointed from madness, conceived as the main plot and the novelty introduced with humour by Ariosto on the chivalry genre. This argument allows us to refuse an epic or solemn interpretation of the Orlando furioso, defended however by a significant part of experts and critics.

Full textFrom Ariosto’s Orlando furioso (1516-1532) to Kepler’s Somnium (1634), this thesis offers a study of aerial and celestial voyages in Renaissance narrative fiction (romances, epic poems, satires) as well as of learned treatises related to the question of flying (demonology, cosmography, astronomy, learned discourses on human and bird flight, etc.). It focuses on three main subjects: cosmic voyages in the tradition of Cicero’s Dream of Scipio or Lucian of Samosata’s Icaromenippus; aerial voyages in chivalric romance; diabolical transvection (eg. fly to the sabbath). It thus shows the extent to which flight captured the Renaissance imagination, at the cross-roads between fiction and learned discourse, and it traces a « pre-history » of fictional flying before Godwin’s Man in the Moone (1638) or Cyrano de Bergerac’s Etats et Empires de la Lune et du Soleil (1657 and 1662). At the heart of this fantasy lies a desire to measure the world from above – together with the anxieties produced by the same desire

Full textThe aim of the present study is to define the development of the comedy of Plauto-Terencian origin after the Council of Trent. It will examine the comedies of Luigi Groto, comparing them with other comedies of the Sixteenth Century. There was a reinvention of the comedy based on the Plautian model in the first half of the Cinquecento. The model (called motoria), which was full of effects and lively with action, was adapted to the needs of the era and the public taste. Subsequently this model was enriched by patterns of the Terencian comedy called stataria. The stataria, differently from the motoria, gave more room to characters and to reflections of the comedy itself. Some playwrights, i.e. Angelo Beolco and Pietro Aretino, both fundamental for the study, followed this development in their plays. The three comedies that we are going to analyse, differ from each other. Every chapter is going to examine only one comedy and only from one point of view. In the first chapter, we are going to analyse the language of comedy that Groto proposed in the La Emilia (1579). This play is based on Ludovico Aroisto's elaboration of Plautus. In the second chapter, we are going to look at different perceptions of female characters in the Il Thesoro (1583), Groto's second comedy. We will see how the change in the importance of women on stage modified the other characters. In the last chapter we are going to interpret how the La Alteria (1587), based on Terence and Aretino, became a pure metacomedy, and how its hedonistic structure was influenced by Ariosto, Aretino and Beolco.

Full textThe aim of the present study is to define the development of the comedy of Plauto-Terencian origin after the Council of Trent. It will examine the comedies of Luigi Groto, comparing them with other comedies of the Sixteenth Century. There was a reinvention of the comedy based on the Plautian model in the first half of the Cinquecento. The model (called motoria), which was full of effects and lively with action, was adapted to the needs of the era and the public taste. Subsequently this model was enriched by patterns of the Terencian comedy called stataria. The stataria, differently from the motoria, gave more room to characters and to reflections of the comedy itself. Some playwrights, i.e. Angelo Beolco and Pietro Aretino, both fundamental for the study, followed this development in their plays. The three comedies that we are going to analyse, differ from each other. Every chapter is going to examine only one comedy and only from one point of view. In the first chapter, we are going to analyse the language of comedy that Groto proposed in the La Emilia (1579). This play is based on Ludovico Aroisto's elaboration of Plautus. In the second chapter, we are going to look at different perceptions of female characters in the Il Thesoro (1583), Groto's second comedy. We will see how the change in the importance of women on stage modified the other characters. In the last chapter we are going to interpret how the La Alteria (1587), based on Terence and Aretino, became a pure metacomedy, and how its hedonistic structure was influenced by Ariosto, Aretino and Beolco.

Full textThis dissertation studies, for the first time in a systematic and monographic way, the role of female characters in Ludovico Ariosto’s Orlando Furioso (1532), highlighting its extremely innovative characteristics compared to tradition, included the chivalric tradition of Ferrara, and in part also compared to the cultural context of the Italian courts of Renaissance. The fundamental role of Bradamante, to whom Ariosto reserves a more constant presence and richer interventions both on private and on public level, is proved as well. The dissertation is divided in three parts, each preceded by a methodological introduction delineating the status quaestionis, from which the incomplete nature of the existing studies on the subject emerges. The first part of the work analyses the presence of female characters in the Western epic tradition and in the main works which are in a relationship of intertextuality with the Furioso. Simultaneously, some fundamental passages of the representation of women in Western literature are retraced up to the fifteenth/sixteenth century querelle des femmes. This path allows to delineate the precedents and the cultural context from which Ariosto moved. The second part of the dissertation is dedicated to a detailed analysis of the female characters of the poem, which are classified in groups and subgroups: for each of them the typologies, the relationship of intertextuality and the characteristics are analysed. Finally, in the third part, the functions of the different characters in the single episodes are faced, in relation with the other – male and female – figures both from the plot perspective and in the epic telos of the poem. The conclusions underline the complexity of Ariosto’s approach, aimed at unmasking every univocal position and every prejudice, and to show the two sides of false opposites (from which duplications and double figures originate). The results of this analysis show hitherto neglected aspects of the masterpiece of Italian literary Renaissance and clear the air of any attempt to enlist Ariosto among the misogynists or the philogynists.

Full textIn this work, the poem is mainly - but not only - approached from a narratologic point of view. Trough a series of detalled analysies, we've tried to explain what part death (or the narration of death) is induced to play upon and in the narrative mechanism. Thus we've been able to point out the structuring function of death, which marks the orlando furioso's narration in a meaningful way. In so dooing, death appears to us as one of the main factors which play a great part in orienting the internal movement of the poem: subject of a number of centrifugal strengthes in the beginning, this movement experiences a centripetal variation to come in the end at narrative unity. Therefore, our interest in studying death in the orlando furioso has allowed us to give a few elements of answer to the narrative unity problem, which was already raised by criticism on the first ariosto's chef-d'oeuvre edition

Full textCette thèse décrit l'importance des académies amateures en tant que lieu de consommation d'œuvres musicales et littéraires dans l'Italie du cinquecento. En se positionnant entre les sphères publiques et privées, l'environnement culturel des académies fut très propice à la « lecture » analytique de textes par la musique. Lors de lezioni musicales d'extraits de l'épopée chevaleresque Orlando furioso d'Arioste, Jachet de Berchem, Vincenzo Ruffo et Jan Nasco se montrèrent sensibles aux mêmes problèmes que les critiques littéraires contemporains (l'interprétation d'images et de métaphores), mais en même temps, ils ont également créé des interprétations émotionnelles et psychologiques complexes des subjectivités des personnages principaux d'une manière qui va au-delà de celle des critiques contemporains sur les écrits d'Arioste. L'association de ces trois compositeurs et leur musique avec l'Accademia Filarmonica di Verona suggère donc que les compositeurs eurent un rôle important à jouer lors de discussions académiques sur l'esthétique littéraire, et que le madrigal peut être vu comme une forme de critique littéraire préservant certains aspects du discours académique, autrement perdu. Mon analyse représente donc une nouvelle façon d'interpréter les madrigaux et interprète leur signification via le contexte de ce discours.

Full textThe thesis investigates the central period of the madrigalian output of Franco-Flemish composer Giovanni de Macque by considering five works published by de Macque between 1581 and 1597. The analysis of this corpus is based on two notions that were current in musical literature of the era and used by Macque himself in a dedicatory letter : ariosità and artificiosità. This analytical approach highlights one of the most significant aspects of profane vocal music in late Italian Cinquecento : the merging of simplicity and erudition, of lightness and complexity, of genres and stylistic registers. The thesis follows a chronological division which underlines the different phases of Macque's stylistic evolution during the period under consideration. After a contextualizing introduction, each section explores the three following issues: poetic choices, recourse to determinate musical techniques, and musical representation of the poetic text. The edition and the French translation of the poetic texts, the transcription of two books of the corpus and the translation of the composer's correspondence are located in the appendix
La tesi verte sull'analisi del periodo centrale della produzione madrigalistica del compositore franco fiammingo Giovanni de Macque, prendendo in considerazione cinque stampe, pubblicate tra il 1581 e il 1597. Il corpus viene valutato attraverso due nozioni utilizzate nella letteratura e nella trattistica musicale coeva, e dallo stesso Macque in una sua lettera dedicatoria : l'ariosità e l'artificiosità. Questa prospettiva analitica consente di esaminare un aspetto particolarmente significativo del repertorio vocale profano italiano degli ultimi decenni del Cinquecento : l'avvicinamento della scrittura sapiente alla leggerezza, l'accostamento della complessità alla semplicità, nonché la mescolanza di generi e di registri stilistici. La tesi segue un percorso cronologico che vuole individuare le fasi successive dello sviluppo stilistico di Macque durante il periodo preso in considerazione. Un'introduzione apre ogni singola parte con lo scopo di contestualizzare l'opera. L'analisi si concentra poi su tre parametri fondamentali della scrittura madrigalistica : le scelte poetiche, il ricorso a determinate tecniche compositive, ed infine la rappresentazione musicale del testo poetico. I testi poetici e la loro traduzione in francese, la trascrizione del Secondo libro de madrigali a cinque voci e del Terzo libro de madrigali a cinque voci, e la corrispondenza del compositore tradotta in francese sono riuniti in un volume di appendici
