Full textThis dissertation presents the results of our research on Pedro Juan Perpiñán (Elche 1530-Paris 1566), member of the Society of Jesus (SJ), and his work as orator and professor of Rhetoric, and emphasizes his importance, dimension and significance at the beginning of the SJ and his prominent role in Latin Oratory during the second half of the Sixteenth century. Our research develops and consists of the following aspects: 1.- An updated study and contextualization of P. J. Perpiñán in the SJ and within the context of Europe during the second half of the Sixteenth century. We have carried out a study and critical analysis of the biographical sources; many of these documents and manuscripts are unknown and unpublished until today. That is why, we can offer a critical biography and a genealogy of the Spanish humanist. In addition, this analysis allows us to know his intellectual background and to place his work within the Jesuit Humanism. 2.- Study and catalogue of his work as a professor, orator and writer: A. Published works. Critical study of his editions: identification, origin, cause and importance. We offer a catalogue of his published works from the 16th century onwards. Furthermore, we tried to identify and study in depth the manuscripts on which the published works were probably based. B. Unpublished work. Our research includes a catalogue and a study of the manuscripts found in different libraries of Portugal and Italy, especially in Rome. B.1. Ars rhetorica. We can confirm the existence of an Ars rhetorica composed by P. J. Perpiñán. This work has been missing until today. It is fragmented in different manuscripts preserved in Roman Archives. In this research we attempted to reconstruct the complete scheme of this Ars rhetorica, identifying the parts of his Rhetoric and tracing the manuscripts that have transmitted each of these parts. 3.- Study of his poetry. After discovering some unpublished manuscripts containing poems written by P. J.Perpiñán, we have published, for the first time, a critical edition of some of his poems, with a Spanish translation and a historical and literary analysis. 4.-Study of his speeches. His orations made him acquire great reputation in Europe in the middle of the 16th century. We have carried out a systematic research on his Latin oratory, trying to give answers to some questions about why he became a model for religious oratory in the SJ and why his works were so successful, resulting in a high number of editions of his speeches during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries in Europe. We attempted to catalog his oratorical works, paying special attention to where, when and why his speeches were delivered. We have focused our research on his Roman speeches, since they are, in our opinion, the most representative ones. We have also translated four of his orationes, concentrating on the analysis of two of these orations which were given in Rome in October 1561 (De arte rhetorica discenda) and in November 1564 (De avita dicendi laude recuperanda), respectively. These speeches reflect the rhetorical thinking of P. J. Perpiñán and, consequently, that of the SJ: his concept of rhetoric is consistent with the principles of Jesuit pedagogy and with the prominent role of Rhetoric in the curriculum of the SJ. At the same time, his speeches deal with the theological justification of the Classical Culture, opposed to other views within the Roman Catholic Church. In our dissertation we tried to elaborate an updated Latin edition and a Spanish translation of both orationes. Finally, we carried out a cultural analysis of these speeches, focusing on their literary sources, the historical context, and Perpiñán’s way of adapting the Classsical Tradition into the new historical setting.

Full textIl lavoro di ricerca si è strutturato su tre direttrici distinte, ma complementari: 1. Quadro storico Si è proceduto all'elaborazione di un quadro storico-legislativo, al fine di delineare valore e significato delle tre orazioni ciceroniane. In particolare, sulla base del proemio del secondo discorso, si è tracciato un excursus sul consolato di Cicerone, mettendo in evidenza come l'oratore valuti l'importanza della propria affermazione elettorale e del proprio ruolo di consul popularis e di homo novus, rappresentandosi immediatamente - le orazioni agrarie costituiscono il primo atto ufficiale di Cicerone console - come figura politica a servizio del popolo in netta contrapposizione con Rullo, proponente, secondo Cicerone, di una riforma agraria a favore di una ristretta élite. Si è cercato infine di rimarcare come l'affermazione elettorale di Cicerone non fosse il risultato dell'appoggio e del favore delle classi popolari, ma, in realtà, frutto di una serie di compromessi e accordi con la classe degli ottimati. Un ulteriore approfondimento è stato dedicato ad una breve rassegna storica degli interventi legislativi in materia di riforma agraria susseguitisi a Roma dalle origini fino all'età ciceroniana, soffermandosi in particolare sulla riforma graccana: l'esame della figura e dell'operato dei Gracchi è infatti necessario per poter comprendere e analizzare, nella successiva fase di commento, il giudizio estremamente ambiguo di Cicerone nei confronti della principale riforma agraria a Roma. 2. Tradizione e fortuna del testo Relativamente all'indagine sulla tradizione manoscritta delle tre orazioni, il lavoro fa costante riferimento all'edizione di Marek per i tipi Teubner del 1983. Si è quindi descritta la tradizione manoscritta seguendo la canonica suddivisione in due rami distinti: il Germanico, che ha come capostipite il codice Berolinensis Latinus (E), probabilmente databile tra il XII e il XIII secolo, e l'Italico, che avrebbe come capofamiglia il Lingonicus (L), scoperto dal Bracciolini in un convento presso Langres nel 1417 e probabilmente risalente al XII secolo: tale codice è però andato perduto, ma ne è stata rinvenuta una copia autografa di Poggio nel codice Vaticanus latinus 11458 (V). Proprio su questo esemplare ci si è soffermati in merito alla vexata quaestio delle due subscriptiones, presenti nel manoscritto e attribuite a tal Statilio Massimo (cfr. a tal proposito i contributi di Zetzel 1973 e Pecere 1982), proponendo un ragionato status quaestionis preliminare alla formulazione di una prima ipotesi originale sull'identificazione di Statilio Massimo e sulla relativa cronologia. A tal fine mi sono avvalso di tre testimonianze nelle quali compare il nome di Statilio: a) due inscrizioni attribuite a Statilio sul colosso di Memnone; b) un'iscrizione rinvenuta a Tebe con la menzione di uno Statilio Massimo ideologus e contemporaneo al re Filopappo; c) un distico inciso su una piramide e conservato nel corpus degli scolii a Clemente Alessandrino. Queste tre testimonianze sono collocabili tutte nelle stessa epoca, ossia il II sec. d. C., e provengono dalla medesima area geografica, l'Egitto: è difficile però stabilire se l'emendator menzionato dalle due subscriptiones sia davvero identificabile con lo Statilio Massimo menzionato nelle testimonianze riportate, essendo la consonanza dell'attività di emendator con l'erudizione e le inclinazioni poetiche del personaggio citato l'unico elemento a sostegno di tale ipotesi. 3. Commento Scopo ultimo del lavoro di tesi è stato quello di fornire un commento delle tre orazioni, che tenesse conto della strategia retorico-comunicativa adottata da Cicerone. Nelle prime due orazioni, infatti (la terza appare essere un riassunto delle argomentazioni impiegate nelle precedenti), si è evidenziato come tale strategia muti al mutare del destinatario e del contesto in cui il discorso viene ad essere pronunciato: nella prima orazione, diretta ai colleghi senatori, l'oratore attacca la riforma agraria di Rullo, soffermandosi, in modo particolare, sui poteri speciali conferiti al collegio dei decemviri: proprio le prerogative straordinarie concesse a questi magistrati rappresentano una minaccia per gli interessi degli ottimati, le cui proprietà terriere rischiavano di essere confiscate. Nel secondo discorso, rivolto al popolo, Cicerone enfatizza il proprio ruolo di consul popularis, aggettivo, quest'ultimo, dalla doppia valenza di "eletto dal popolo" o "al servizio del popolo". La strategia retorica dell'oratore mira, nel secondo discorso, a creare un netto contrasto tra la propria figura di console popolare e democratico e coloro che sono, in realtà, falsi amici del popolo stesso e mirano a realizzare gli interessi propri di una ristretta cerchia di persone. Cicerone spinge il popolo a ritenere la riforma di Rullo una minaccia alla propria libertà: a tal fine l'elogio di Tiberio e Caio Gracco, quali campioni assoluti e indiscussi della "popolarità", appare strumentale alla strategia di captatio benevolentiae e non pienamente sincero, come si evince dal confronto con alcuni passi del de officiis. Il commento a queste specifiche orazioni ha offerto, inoltre, una valida opportunità di raffronto tra il Cicerone oratore e il Cicerone teorico della retorica: si è rimarcata, ad esempio, la reale corrispondenza tra le funzioni pragmatiche attribuite alle varie sezioni (proemio, argomentazione e perorazione) e quelle teorizzate da Cicerone nel de inventione e nel de oratore.

Full textThis thesis deals with the "canon" (in the sense of "list of authors considered the best within a given genre") of Greek and Latin poets in chapter 10.1 of the Institutio oratoria. In this treatise on rhetoric from the Flavian period, the canon-list derives from a literary and doctrinal tradition that selects certain authors for inclusion and evaluates them in relation to each other as reading material and models of eloquence. The present work describes the list of authors in chapter 10.1 both as the culmination of a diachronous process of establishing "canons", and, in synchrony, as an emanation of the cultural context specific to Flavian Rome. It questions the dynamic of how the list was established by explaining the motivations behind different operations of "listing" (selection - or exclusion - of authors, establishment of hierarchical relations between them, and critical evaluation of their qualities). It shows that the main critical influences on the different entries in the list are those of Cicero, Horace and Denys of Halicarnassus. In particular, its show that the dynamics of how the list was established is specific to each poetic genre. Accordingly, the present work is located at the confluence of the history of rhetoric and its doctrines, the history of philology, literary history, and the history of ancient literary criticism

Full textOn April 8th, 52 B.C., nearly three years after finishing his most complete rhetorical work, De oratore, Cicero resumed his duties in the courts. Against the forums extraordinary backdrop, surrounded by the armed garrison of Pompeii and packed with a hostile audience, the Arpinate appeared there to defend his friend and tribune Titus Annius Milo, accused of assassinating rival politician Publius Clodius Pulcher. Ancient sources indicate that Cicero, undermined by external factors, did not exhibit his customary effectiveness on that day. Although he did not win the case, the subsequently published version of the speech in defense of Milo, Pro Milone, became a benchmark in legal rhetoric, deemed by many scholars to be a masterpiece of the genre. In this dissertation, we present an annotated Portuguese translation of the speech, accompanied by a study of the respective invention (inventio) process: discovery and examination of strategies, arguments and lines of defense intended to persuade. We have structured our discussion of invention according to Ciceros distinctions for this part of rhetoric, or rather, according to the three methods of influencing the listeners mind: docere (instruct), conciliare (win over) and movere (stir) (cf. De orat. II, 115). Drawing essential support from the theories set forth in De oratore, as well as from other ancient and modern sources, we seek to identify and describe the rhetorical strategies used in Pro Milone in order to account for each of these means of persuasion.

En revanche, et malgré le souci d'écriture évident du rédacteur -perceptible dans son goût pour l'ironie et autres figures de style - l'aspect littéraire de l'ouvrage a jusqu'ici été beaucoup négligé. Afin de rétablir la situation, nous avons décidé de nous consacrer à une étude non seulement littéraire, mais rhétorique de l'Histoire Auguste, dans laquelle on discerne aisément l'intérêt du rédacteur pour l'éloquence des empereurs. Dans cette optique, ce mémoire a comme objectif de tracer le portrait de la rhétorique à la fois par rapport à la structure de l'oeuvre, à son lien avec les autres disciplines des belles-lettres et des sciences libérales, et surtout, par rapport à l'empereur et à sa performance oratoire. Ce travail pourra également s'inscrire dans la recherche récente sur la rhétorique latine de l'Antiquité tardive, une période charnière qui fut longtemps négligée par les littéraires.

Resumo: Nossa pesquisa consiste em discutir determinados elementos presentes no Orator ¿ obra de Marco Túlio Cícero, orador romano do séc. I a.C. ¿ que tratam da questão do ritmo como fator integrante do discurso oratório. Escrito no ano 46 a.C. e constituindo o seu último grande tratado de Retórica, o livro trata dos requisitos do orador ideal, entre os quais prevalece o domínio dos elementos rítmicos da prosa. Concentrar-nos-emos mais detidamente na composição rítmica do período oratório, desde sua formulação grega, passando pela sua construção no mundo romano até sua constituição em Cícero. Discutiremos as questões mais relevantes acerca dos principais recursos estéticos que concorrem para sua composição, como, por exemplo, as cláusulas métricas e os demais elementos prosódicos, como o acento, que viabilizam sua elaboração. Tencionamos, com isso, descobrir até que ponto as inferências do orador romano sobre o período oratório podem ser analisadas sob a ótica de um paradigma linguístico moderno, especificamente, a fonologia métrica e a fonologia prosódica, e de que modo suas reflexões podem contribuir para a compreensão da língua latina no que tange ao seu aspecto prosódico
Abstract: Our research consists in a discussion about some elements found in the Orator ¿ one of the books of Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman rhetorician and orator of the 1st century BCE ¿, which deals with the issue of rhythm as part of the oratory speech. Written in the year of 46 BCE, the book is his last great treatise on rhetoric and deals with the requirements of the ideal orator, among which prevails mastering of the elements of prose-rhythm. We will focus on the rhythmic composition of the oratory period, its Greek formulation, its construction in the Roman world and its incorporation by Cicero. We will also discuss the most relevant issues on the main aesthetic features that contribute to its composition, as for example, the metric clausulae and other prosodic elements such as accent, that enable their development. We intend, therefore, to check out whether Cicero¿s formulations of oratory periods can be analyzed from a modern linguistic perspective, specifically metric and prosodic phonology, and how his theory contributes to understanding the Latin language

Full textPolitical eloquence is a sort of music. The difference between eloquence and music —either vocal or instrumental— is quantitative not qualitative”. Dionysius of Halicarnassus (Ist c. BC) thus faces with the crucial and challenging concern of the connection between rhetoric and music. Actually, those fields are both based on rhythm. My dissertation therefore addresses this question: to what extent the relationship between rhythm in speech and rhythm in song mirrors the linguistic, sociological, political and cultural changes that altered the Latin society from Cicero to Guido of Arezzo? In ancient Greece, musical rhythm has to be in time because songs are usually danced, whereas oratory rhythm must not follow a beat. According to Cicero, oratory rhythm is definitely different from musical rhythm and poetic metre because it is built on continually changing patterns. Those rhythmic principles are particularly vivid in the early Middle Ages, especially in Christian chant. Although Latin has been deeply altered, the rhythmic set of laws established by Cicero is still helpful in the composition of Christian melodies, mainly in what Guido of Arezzo calls cantus prosaicus

Full textIn the introductions to their works, the 4th and 5thcenturies' authors, be they pagan or christian, reveal their faith to the traditional rhetoric and mainly to Ciceron's "De inuentione". The introductory texts called in latin "exordium", "prologus", "prooemium", "praefatio" and "praefatiuncula" take on forms as varied as the oratory "exordium", the poetical "prooeminium, the dedicatory epistle and preface, which all imitate the oratory "exordium" codified from the poetic tradition. As we have demonstrated, the choice of an introductory text depends on the genre of work because the each literary genre corresponds a specific kind of text. Besides, the presence of some elements which are external to the "exordium" testifies more to our author's will to go beyond the mere presentation of the work rather than to a rejection of the rhetoric of th "exordium". The introductory text then becomes a text open not only to the external events but also to different people: dedicatees and interlocutors. Hence the emergence of the preface increasingly used by the Christiens, who are fond of justifications and consequently develop this introductory genre following thus in the steps of Jerome

Full textThe present thesis, rooted in the history of cultural relations between Europe and Latin America, analyses the concept of Spanish-America as it emerged in Spain in 1892 at the time of the 4th centenary of the discovery of America. Seventy years after its colonial empire had collapsed, in the shadow of the 1st Pan-American Conference (1889-90) in Washington and the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, which proclaimed the United States’ dominance over the American continent, Spain organised a celebration intended to revitalise the ties of a transatlantic Spanish-American community founded on a shared language, history and cultural heritage. Officialdom and the professional middle classes joined forces to mount a commemoration that was a kind of quest for an image lost in a mirror, the reflections of which, scattered throughout a series of nationwide ceremonies, congresses and exhibitions, seem to express the mood of a nation seeking to retrieve the feeling of its own existence. Through the looking glass, the Latin American republics were by then in search of international alliances. Their political independence seemed solidly established, but the conquest of genuine cultural independence was still for them at an embryonic stage, requiring a rethinking of their Spanish heritage. In this context of an unprecedented confluence of generations arose the cultural confrontation this study seeks to highlight, disclosing the convergence feeding into the 1892 Spanish-American debate, the real and speculative extensions of which still to this day pervade relations between Spain and Latin America

Full textThe collection of ad status sermons by the Franciscan Guibert de Tournai (d. 1284), rooted in the new art of preaching that was developing in the thirteenth century, is best known for its particular organization, arranging the sermons according to the social position (or estate) of their audience rather than by liturgical occasions. This thesis assesses and updates our knowledge of the author and the collection, and provides an in-depth analysis of this body of work, accompanied by a complete transcription. Furthermore, the thesis paves the way for a reinterpretation of the ways in which Guibert used and adapted earlier texts, and it proposes a new understanding of the ad status division, in light of mnemonics and the art of memory.The first chapter assesses our knowledge of Guibert de Tournai. A child of the Flemish bourgeoisie, he remained faithful to his land of origin and to the men he knew there, long after his studies and his engagement in the Franciscan order had led him to Paris. Intellectually fertile in a variety of genres, his works hint at a personality passionate about mysticism and contemplation. A pre-eminent figure in the Parisian intellectual landscape of the 1260s, connected to the key political and intellectual figures of his time, he was interested in questions regarding the acquisition and transmission of knowledge, and evidently in the preaching we know – thanks to Parisian reportationes – that he practiced until his twilight years.The second chapter offers a detailed presentation and analysis of the ad status collection. There are many extant manuscripts, and their analysis is complicated by several inconsistencies in the transmission of the work, but overall and over time the text seems relatively stable. The content of the collection, systematically analysed, provides an excellent example of the “modern sermon” in the way it arranges the material for preaching, drawing on numerous distinctiones to structure the texts.The third chapter explores the link between Guibert and intertextuality or textual reuse. The Franciscan master took much of his material from other works; his reuse of the Sermones vulgares of Jacques de Vitry in his ad status sermons has been known for a long time, but he also found much of his preaching material for sermons on the sacraments in the work of Guillaume d’Auvergne. Guibert's appropriation of the work of Jacques de Vitry, measured through the use of his predecessor's exempla, is revealed to be less systematic and more complex than scholars would otherwise have predicted, demonstrating just how, and to what extent, textual reuse was integral to the creation process for Guibert as well as for other medieval authors. The role of the works of Guibert as reservoirs of material, in turn themselves reused in works of various genres and authors, is demonstrated through the analysis of a number of later texts.The final chapter proposes a new consideration of Guibert's choice of constructing his collection as an ad status text. The composition of sermons according to the social position of the audience can be understood, in light of the art of memory, as an ingenious mnemonic tool for the organisation of preaching material rather than as a mirror of a real or ideal society. In turning the status into “lieux de mémoire”, Guibert created a thematic classification of preaching material according to topoi attached to the estates

Full textMartianus Capella’s encyclopedic work, probably composed in the early 5th century A.D., forms an original transition between Ancient and Medieval conceptions of "liberal education". As wedding gifts given by Mercury to Philology, seven Sciences present their branch of knowledge in a divine assembly : this scientific programme aims at the ascension of the soul towards the divine and rational world. Rhetoric answers (and goes beyond) the traditional critics directed against oratory. She promises a presentation consistent with the status of science (disciplina) she shares with her six companions : her teaching builds a general art of persuasive argument. Our study defines the position of Book 5 in Martianus’ work and in the Ancient rhetorical traditions. Whereas the Late Latin rhetorical handbooks that have survived partake of the « standard » rhetorical teaching, Martianus’ Book 5 adopts (and adapts) the guidelines of the Cicero’s latest rhetorical works (especially De oratore) : the theory is designed to meet both "particular " questions, area of orators, and the "general" philosophical questions. This conception of rhetoric is not new : it relies on philosophical traditions of teaching rhetoric that were developed in Peripatetic and Academic settings. Martianus’ Book 5 is however the only Late Antique testimony that embraces these advanced prospects, and seeks to organise them in a systematic form. As the science of persuasive speech, Rhetoric plays an essential role in Martianus’ project, and constitutes an important step before the higher principle represented by Harmony

Full textThis thesis intends to study the theoretical means by which the Latin rhetoric of the first century BCE has understood the ethical aspect of rhetorical performances and has progressively built a category suited to the peculiarities of the late Roman republic : the notion of persona, which, in its rhetorical meaning, corresponds to the merits mentioned by the orator in his own speech and to the ethos he conveys through his argumentation, style, voice and gestures. This work seeks to demonstrate that the notion of persona is no strict equivalent of the Greek notion of h\qo". It emphasizes therefore how historical and ideological contexts must be taken into account when rhetorical theory tries to deal with oratorical ethos. The first part of this study uses the Athenian theory of h\qo" and its political value as a reference in order to give the notion of persona its particular rhetorical meaning. It then becomes possible to study how this notion slowly emerges, detaches itself from Greek rhetorical tradition and takes into account the symbolical, ideological and practical realities of the Roman aristocratic environment in the anonymous Rhetorica ad Herennium and Cicero’s De inuentione. The last part of this study analyzes how Cicero gives a true theoretical status to the notion of persona in his mature works and uses it for philosophical and rhetorical purposes that are wider than they were in the first Latin rhetorical texts

Full textOur study is an analysis of how the term carmen was used in rome to refer to a specific act of speech. The first part broaches the uses of the word when related to three types of agents - birds, instruments, and cantores - showing the unity of a category which, although not an equivalent, embraces the modern notions of song and music. The carmen is thus defined as an act incorporating the properties of the uox, perceived as sonorous matter that provokes physical, emotional and semantic effects. Part 2 and 3 deal with the uses of the word in the field of religion and law: they show a semantic evolution of the word which, after having referred to "magical" speech acts competing with the law, is renewed at the beginning of the roman empire as an archaising category designating any type of speech act where words are supposed to have an intrinsic efficiency: prayers, laws, or prophecies. Flnally, part 4 and 5 outline the gradual use of carmen as a word of poetic self-reference: first referring to the performance of an actor as opposed to the poema, which is a text, the word carmen is later reconsidered by Catullus and Lucretius as a fictive act of speech. Virgil, Horace and Propertius broaden this novelty by using carmen and canere to refer to the poetic act: it becomes a global speech act category, unifying heterogeneous greek practices, designating either iambos, melos, epos or elegy. This unifying speech act allows the new roman poets to import greek poetry as a significant form qf cultural renewal, which is typical of the augustan age
