    Lo speziale siciliano tra continuità e innovazione: capitoli e costituzioni dal XIV al XVI secolo,

    Get PDF
    Lo studio, a partire da una dettagliata analisi della normativa vigente nell’isola (da Camma a Ingrassia) mette a fuoco la figura dello speziale siciliano che, alla ricerca di un’autonomia dalla categoria dei medici e sulla strada di una più ampia consapevolezza e solidità professionale, da figura ambiguamente al confine, in bilico tra ciarlataneria e professionalità, nel giro di tre secoli, dal XIV al XVII secolo, si ritrova a godere di posizioni di prestigio grazie alla disponibilità di denaro, bene inserito nel tessuto urbano. Viene quindi messo a fuoco l’ambiente nel quale lo speziale lavora, la sua bottega, con tutto quanto contiene: vasi, misure, rimedi (sciroppi, conserve, polveri, elettuari, pillole, acque distillate.) In appendice, la trascrizione dell’elenco dei rimedi composti da tenere in spezieria secondo quanto stabilito dal protomedico Ingrassia nel 1564

    Potere politico e gioco di alleanze in Machiavelli. Funzione del conflitto sotto un governo principesco

    Get PDF
    The essay analyses the originality of Machiavelli's reflection about the conflict under the Prince's government, in order to point out concordances and differences with the role - more extensively studied - of conflict within a republic. The questions analysed are, first of ali, the Prince's necessity of foreseeing the institutional structures for the regulation of conflict; then, the issue of alliances for the Prince who, having taken the power with the support of the great or of the people, needs popular support to maintain it; finally, the nature of the popular desire of not being oppressed, and particularly the fact that it is not only a negative desire, but rather contains an active tension to defend liberty

    Ciudad rica y ciudadanos pobres. La consideración de la riqueza en el republicanismo florentino

    Get PDF
    Reading the classics, studying history and careful observation of the political practice of time will lead to Machiavelli to break with the humanist tradition on the property and to defend the need for limitations on it. The republican conception of the land is owned by the motto of the city's rich and poor citizens. This is a policy of moderation which excludes alike oligarchic conception of those who confuse the wealth of the city with their rulers, and radical egalitarianism with its exclusiveness denying the existence of the two humors (umori) that make properly coordinated a republic with a mixed government, safe, stable and rich.La lectura de los clásicos, el estudio de la historia y la atenta observación de la práctica política de su tiempo le llevarán a Maquiavelo a romper con la tradición humanista sobre la propiedad y a defender la necesidad de limitaciones sobre la misma. Su concepción republicana sobre la propiedad se concentra en el lema de que la ciudad sea rica y los ciudadanos pobres. Esto supone una política de moderación que excluye por igual la concepción oligárquica de quienes confunden la riqueza de la ciudad con la de sus gobernantes; así como el igualitarismo radical de los que niegan con su exclusivismo la existencia de los dos humores (umori) que debidamente coordinados hacen que una república, con un gobierno mixto, sea segura, estable y rica

    V članku je predstavljena prostorska analiza razporeditve 619 zapisov 10 izbranih tipov slovenskih ljudskih pesmi. Zapisi so različno razporejeni po slovenskih pokrajinah.

    Political Technique, the Conflict of Umori, and Foucault’s Reading of Machiavelli in Sécurité, Territoire, Population

    Get PDF
    For those familiar with Machiavelli’s texts, Foucault’s interpretation of Macchiavelli in his 1978 lecture series Sécurité, Territoire, Population1 is surprising. Although Machiavelli figures prominently in five of the thirteen lectures,2 Foucault treats Machiavelli as if he were the author of only one book—The Prince—and his reading treats this complex text as if it covered only one topic: how to guarantee the security of the Prince. Clearly Foucault did not intend his interpretation of Machiavelli as a close exegesis. Other discussions of Foucault’s treatment of Machiavelli have acknowledged the role Machiavelli plays in these lectures and even note the inadequacy of the interpretation given by Foucault, but most commentators do not pursue Foucault’s reading further.3 This investigation is not concerned with whether Foucault got Machiavelli right. Rather, Foucault’s reading of Machiavelli is noteworthy because it is partial and incomplete in a way reminiscent of Foucault’s reading of Hobbes in, Il faut défendre la société. This fragmentary character of Foucault’s inscription of Machiavelli as a forerunner of the history of biopolitique allows an innovative reading of the Florentine that connects Machiavelli’s thinking, however indirectly, on a trajectory that encounters, for instance, Foucault’s analysis of populations, the police state, and even his reading of liberalism during the 1978-­‐ 1979 lectures. My argument here is that the specific way Foucault’s inscribes Machiavelli in the history of gouvernementalité, while seeming to reject him, in fact acts to resuscitate, and thereby relay, a reading of Machiavelli as a thinker who articulates encounters among political practices engaged within a horizon of radical immanence
