Petrarca
ISBN: 9783110175578 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Im Mittelpunkt der fUnf Essays des Bandes steht die Lyrik Petrarcas. Der erste Essay indes ist dem "Secretum" gewidmet, d. h. dem Theologen und dem Philosophen Petrarca. Dies hat programmatischen Charakter: Die hier versammelten Studien versuchen, einen neuen Zugang zum "Canzoniere" zu entwickeln, indem sie die Gedichte in den Kontext der Diskurse ihrer Entstehungszeit einordnen. Aufgrund des SpannungsverhAltnisses zu den geistigen StrOmungen der Epoche ergibt sich gleichwohl der Befund einer zuweilen Uberraschenden ModernitAt und auch AktualitAt des lyrischen OEuvres des Dichters. -...

Like Ariosto's "Orlando Furioso" and Tasso's "Jerusalem Delivered," Boiardo's chivalric stories of lords and ladies first entertained the culturally innovative court of Ferrara in the Italian Renaissance.

Perception & Passion Dante's S
ISBN: 9780521370097 / Angielski / Twarda / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Patrick Boyde argues that the way in which Dante represents what he (or his fictional self) saw and felt was profoundly influenced by the thirteenth-century science of psychology. Professor Boyde offers an authoritative account of the way in which vision and the emotions were understood in Dante's lifetime. He rereads many of the most dramatic and moving episodes in the Comedy, and shows how knowledge of Dante's philosophical ideas can help us to understand the meaning of his journey toward the source of goodness and truth.

Dante's Inferno: Difficulty and Dead Poetry
ISBN: 9780521070522 / Angielski / Miękka / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book represents a major re-assessment of Dante's Inferno, and of the place which the Inferno occupies in the plan of the whole Commedia. On evidence drawn also from the Paradiso and Purgatorio, Dr Kirkpatrick argues that Dante's thinking and poetry are subject to far greater internal tension than is commonly supposed. He then proceeds to analyse each of the thirty-four cantos of the Inferno, and to relate each canto in turn to its thematic and narrative context. Throughout, Dr Kirkpatrick is particularly concerned with features of language and structure which scholars have tended to...

Examining his vernacular poetry and his Latin works from both...
