L'iride e la Trinità: Osservazioni sulle fonti di Basil. Ep. 38.5
The focus of this contribution is to examine the section 5 (Courtonne) of Basil’s Letter 38 devoted to the rainbow considered as a physical metaphor of the Trinity. The main purpose is to scrutinize the likely ancient pagan sources of Basil’s description of rainbow’s formation. The present article concludes by pointing out that the sources used by Basil could be traced back to Aristotle’s Meteorology and the Stoics (especially Posidonius), without denying an Epicurean influence too. The most interesting point is that the author of the letter seems to occasionally modify the ancient sources on the rainbow he consults in order to make the explanation of the rainbow consistent with his theological/Trinitarian scope. Since several studies confirmed the deep interest of Basil in the explanation of natural phenomena (always for theological and not scientific goals) on the basis of the theories of the ancient pagan Greek philosophers, it cannot be ruled out the possibility that Basil actually was the author of this epistle. This question is very problematic; it is not resolved but, in my opinion, it should also be reconsidered in the light of the part of the letter devoted to the comparison with the rainbow

La polemica contro il cristianesimo come religione incivile in Minucio Felice e Celso
The article focuses on the polemic of Pagan philosophers towards Christianity in the 2nd century AD. This polemic is to be considered crucial for the historical-theoretical understanding of the genesis of the complex philosophical problem of civil religion. It was precisely the criticisms that Pagan philosophers levelled against the Christians that, on the one hand, reinforced the traditional concept of religion as a civil and political phenomenon, and, on the other hand, in reacting to these criticisms, led the Christians themselves to raise the issue of the compatibility of their doctrine with political power. The article will examine this matter in two important authors : Minucius Felix, who wrote the Octavius (around 200), one of the earliest apologetic dialogues, and Celsus, the Middle-Platonic philosopher who drafted the Alethes logos (around 177-180), the discourse, reasoning or true word/wisdom, a work we know only fragmentarily through Origen’s Contra Celsum
