Iso-Polites. Isocrates for a new Idea of citizenship. Bando Prin 2022 - Decreto Direttoriale n. 104 del 02-02-2022 CUP J53D23019550 001- PRIN 2022FZPF2E
No full textThe Iso-Polites project will offer a new Italian translation of Isocrates’ Opera omnia in the light of the “New Oxford Isocrates” and it
will be dedicated in same time to the drafting of a systematic commentary on the Against the Sophists, the Encomium of Helen and
the Letters. We are certain that the widest reading and knowledge of Isocrates' thought can guarantee today a decisive
improvement both on the philological and cultural level, and on the educational and social level with regard to the programmatic
awareness of a “poetics of the citizen”. We are convinced that the rediscovery of Isocrates, strengthened also by the “New Oxford
Isocrates”, is now indispensable and should be exploited in an unitary project. Translating and observing the Opera omnia of
Isocrates from a mature and reliable philological point of view will allow to understand and to make available not only to the
scientific community the value of a literary protagonist of the ancient world: not only an outstanding voice within the Greek literary
production, but also a fundamental author for the development of Western thought. In fact Isocrates gave a unique contribution to
the idea of citizenship, based on a strong cohesion and interlacement between politike techne and paideia, politics and education
La retorica e l'epicureismo: una riflessione
No full textThe knowledge of Epicurus’ thought and criticism about rhetoric is founded on
poor and uncertain evidences preserved by the literary tradition. Few are the fragments of Epicurus’ Rhetorica which Philodemus, our main source, cites. With care to the historical and cultural context in which Epicurus lived, the analysis of the evidences and the fragments shows that the Epicurus’ criticism to rhetoric is mainly developed in the view of philosophical research. For Epicurus the Aristotelic rhetoric
and the rhetorical schools, which at his time represented an effectively alternative to the philosophical schools, don’t help to provide useful tools to happiness, only available by philosophical research

P. Rain. I 25 riconsiderato

Demostene nella Retorica di Filodemo: l'immagine del ῥήτωρ ἔμπρακτος
No full textOn the basis of a textual and content-related re-examination of the places in the Rhetorica where Demosthenes is mentioned, it can be said that the orator's profile tends to exemplify the idea of political rhetoric attributed by Philodemus to Epicurus: although lacking in technique, Demosthenes is a winner in the agonies thanks to his experience
̓Ασέλγεια: etimologie a confronto
No full textThe ancients associated the term with the selgi, known for probity (hence Didymus, also quoted in the hypomnema to the demosthenic 'Contra Midiam' in P. Lit. Lond. 179), or for debauchery; in the papyrus the superscription of r. 25 should be dissolved into Σ(έλγη) πόλις, and at the end of the line it reads ἐπι Πισιδ(ίας), 'over Pisidia'
Il βίος di Dionisio di Eraclea nella “Stoicorum Historia” di Filodemo (PHerc. 1018, coll. XXIX 5-XXXIII 4)
No full textIn the Stoicorum Historia (PHerc. 1018, coll. XXIX 5-XXXIII 4) Philodemus uses the
tools of biography to draw the profile of Dionysius, the pupil of Zeno who left the
Stoa in search of pleasure. Philodemus illustrates the three most significant moments in the life of Dionysius by anecdote: his disease, apostasy, and death. The story of his death, in particular, has strong points of contact with the story of Epicurus' death. Here Dionysius is assimilated to Epicurus in an exemplary scene in which is portrayed the most significant event of Dionysius's life, the transition from Stoa to Kepos
Philologia Philosophica
No full textIn this journal, philology is at the same time a critical restoration of the text and a precise interpretation of the text, with a thoughtful awareness of the phenomena of language and style, of the norms of genres, that shape literary production and that the history of thought observes in the Hellenistic and Imperial periods. The journal aims to take part in the international debate by placing the text at the centre, because only with the centrality of the text can literary production and the history of thought reveal the mature reflection on the human past
