Realtà, realismo, straniamento : Auerbach e il romanzo cavalleresco fino a Cervantes
No full textAuerbach’s research, besides exploring the three main fields the author explicitly names (i.e. the succession of different and differently grounded forms of realism in literary fiction, the alternate splitting and melting of styles, the link between literary work and a Christian vision of the world), in various chapters of Mimesis, and particularly in chs. 2, 6, 12, 14 and 20, is also focused, albeit only implicitly, on the developments of a further distinctive feature in Western literature, which is the emergence of subjectivity in the representation of reality. Focusing mainly on the chapter on courtly romance (ch. 6) and on the Quijote (ch. 14), this essay will examine Auerbach’s interpreting work on texts that adopt, in different ways, a ‘subjective point of view’; this kind of interpretation is, in part, unexpectedly similar to the approach of other critics and theorists of literature contemporary to Auerbach, like Bachtin, Américo Castro and Viktor Šklovskij
“Maistre (certa)”. Niveaux de savoir et conception du monde chez Guillaume IX d’Aquitaine
No full textStarting with a study by M. Black (Models and Archetypes, 1958), the author examines the possibility of broadening this heuristic perspective to include literature. In particular, she analyses a text by William IX, in which the troubadour seems identify himself with God
Oltre lo specchio: il Joufroi de Poitiers e la cultura lirica del suo autore
No full textCome è stato a più riprese osservato, il Joufroi de Poitiers, romanzo d’autore borgognone collocabile verso la metà del XIII secolo, si ispira molto da vicino alla figura di Guglielmo IX d’Aquitania, grande signore e primo trovatore di cui ci siano giunti i componimenti. Ma a quali materiali si ispira veramente l’autore del Joufroi? Alla vida provenzale conservata, o piuttosto a una più ampia biografia latina perduta, o ad altri testi ancora? La presente ricerca cercherà di mettere in luce quali siano state le effettive fonti del romanzo e di abbozzare un’ipotesi che spieghi le motivazioni di questi recuperi.As has been repeatedly noted, Joufroi de Poitiers, a novel written by a Burgundian author and composed around the middle of the thirteenth century, is based very closely on the figure of William IX of Aquitaine, great lord and first troubadour whose poems have been compiled. But what materials did truly inspire the author of Joufroi? The extant Provençal vida, or rather a lost broader Latin biography, or still other texts? This research will try to shed light on what were the actual sources of the novel and to outline a hypothesis that explains the motivations of these works

L'«altro» amante: qualche considerazione sulla storia di Andrieu de Paris (o de Fransa), innamorato fantomatico
No full textQuest’intervento vuole tornare su una misteriosa figura di amante esem-
plare, Andreu «de Paris» o «de Fransa», la cui vicenda, mai giunta a noi in un
testo autonomo, è però ampiamente ricordata da trovatori e da scrittori medio-
latini e francesi. Con l’aiuto di testimonianze in parte inedite, o non adeguata-
mente valorizzate, si tenterà di capire il vero significato del personaggio e della
storia che lo vede protagonista.The story of Andreu “de Paris” or “de Fransa” is not known through an in-
dependent narrative, but only through allusions made by the troubadours and
other medieval Latin and French writers. Drawing on texts that have not yet
been recognized or that have not received proper attention by modern scholars,
this paper aims at understanding the true meaning attributed to this character
and to his story by medieval writers
Martin da Canal e la cultura veneziana del 13. Secolo
No full textRiprendendo, a oltre trent''anni di distanza, le indagini di Alberto Limentani relative all''ideologia che sta alla base delle "Estoires d Venise" di Martin da Canal, e alla cultura letteraria del loro autore, ma fondandosi sulle più recenti acquisizioni della filologia materiale, il saggio mette in luce come il cronista modelli il racconto delle vicende a lui contemporanee, e in particolare di quelle dell''espansione veneziana nel Mediterraneo orientale, sulla materia dei romanzi francesi relativi ad Alessandro Magno, ampiamente circolanti nell''Italia Nord-orientale dell''epoca
