Widow City: Gender, Emotion, and Community in Renaissance Italy (University of Delaware Press, 2025) investigates the ever-evolving role of the widow in medieval and early modern Italian literature, from canonical authors such as Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio, to the numerous widowed writers who rose to prominence in the sixteenth century—including Vittoria Colonna, Veronica Gambara, and Francesca Turina—and radically changed the conversation on public mourning. Engaging with broader intellectual discussions around gender, the history of emotions, the politics of mourning, and the construction of community, Widow City argues that widows served as key models demonstrating to readers not just how to mourn, but how to live well after devastating loss. At the same time, widows were figures of great anxiety: their status as unattached women, and the public performance of their grief, were viewed as very real threats to the stability of the social order. They are thus key to broader intellectual understandings of community and civic life in the Italian Middle Ages and Renaissance. Learn more about your ad choices.

Giuseppe Patota"A tu per tu con la Commedia"Editori Laterzawww.laterza.itChi ha detto che leggere la Divina Commedia sia un'impresa per pochi? Èvero che leggerla è arduo per la lingua in cui è scritta e l'enorme varietà di temi trattati, ma è un'avventura straordinaria. Giuseppe Patota, che ha dedicato parte dei suoi studi alla lingua di Dante, ha trovato il modo di rendere accessibile quest'opera magnifica e complessa perché possa essere capita e apprezzata anche da chi non la conosce, da chi la conosce poco e da chi l'ha conosciuta, ma non se la ricorda.«Capire la Divina Commediaè difficile. Della lingua in cui la scrisse, diventata la nostra soprattutto grazie a lui, Dante sperimentò tutte le possibilità espressive, comprese quelle che sembrano andare al di là dell'umano, sia verso il basso sia verso l'alto, e non è facile seguirlo in questo vertiginoso saliscendi.Poi ci sono i contenuti. Teologia e interpretazione dei testi sacri, filosofia, logica, morale, politica, diritto, letteratura e storia antica, scienza dei numeri e delle misure, musica, ottica, medicina, arte della guerra e della navigazione: non c'è aspetto della cultura antica e medievale di cui Dante non abbia appropriatamente detto qualcosa, nel suo enciclopedico poema.Infine, ci sono i personaggi che popolano l'oltremondo che il Poeta ha costruito. Tralasciando quelli appartenenti al mito o alla storia, e limitandoci a quelli che hanno popolato la cronaca dei tempi di Dante e di quelli di poco precedenti, l'unico motivo per cui continuiamo ad avere memoria dei nomi di Ciacco, Francesca da Rimini, Farinata degli Uberti o Ugolino della Gherardesca è dato dal fatto che i versi scritti da Dante li hanno resi figure immortali: se quei versi non fossero stati scritti, i loro nomi sonnecchierebbero in qualche documento d'archivio o in qualche cronaca medievale.Sì: capire la Commedia è veramente difficile. Per questo ho scelto i versi più significativi, curiosi o sorprendenti dei cento canti di cui si compone e li ho distribuiti in 114 presentazioni (per qualche canto ho avuto bisogno di qualche presentazione in più). Ho cercato di spiegare quei versi parola per parola, senza dare niente per scontato, collegando i fatti con gli antefatti.In questo modo, leggendoli canto dopo canto, farete lo stesso viaggio che ha fatto Dante: questo, almeno, è quello che spero.»Giuseppe Patota, professore ordinario di Linguistica italiana nell'Università di Siena, è socio corrispondente dell'Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, Accademico della Crusca e dell'Arcadia, membro del direttivo della Fondazione “I Lincei per la scuola” e del comitato scientifico della Fondazione Natalino Sapegno. Ha al suo attivo circa centottanta pubblicazioni scientifiche, didattiche o divulgative dedicate alla lingua italiana, alla sua storia e al suo insegnamento. Alcuni suoi lavori sono stati tradotti e pubblicati in Francia e in Giappone. È condirettore, con Valeria Della Valle, delDizionario dell'italiano Treccanie direttore del Thesaurus Treccani, usciti in prima edizione nel 2018 e in seconda edizione nel 2022. Da oltre quindici anni è consulente di Rai Scuola per la realizzazione di programmi destinati all'insegnamento dell'italiano a stranieri. Per Laterza ha pubblicato Prontuario di grammatica.

Der VfB Oldenburg hat den Klassenerhalt in der Regionalliga Nord endgültig sicher und ist sogar auf dem besten Weg, Rückrundenmeister zu werden.

Warum es ihn in der A-Jugend zu Erzgebirge Aue zog, was Borussia Mönchengladbach und Domenico Tedesco damit zu tun hatten, wieso er froh ist, dass Leon Deichmann „so einen großen Kopf hat“ und welcher VfB-Spieler ihn am meisten beeindruckt, erzählt er in der „Nordwestkurve“.

The Unruly Tongue: Speech and Violence in Medieval Italy (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2025) by Dr. Melissa Vise, offers a new account of how the power of words changed in Western thought. Despite the association of freedom of speech with the political revolutions of the eighteenth century that ushered in the era of modern democracies, Dr. Vise locates the history of the repression of speech not in Europe's monarchies but rather in Italy's republics. Exploring the cultural process through which science and medicine, politics, law, literature, and theology together informed a new political ethics of speech, Dr. Vise uncovers the formation of a moral code where the regulation of the tongue became an integral component of republican values in medieval Europe. The medieval citizens of Italy's republics understood themselves to be wholly subject to the power of words not because they lived in an age of persecution or doctrinal rigidity, but because words had furnished the grounds for their political freedom. Speech-making was the means for speaking the republic itself into existence against the opposition of aristocracy, empire, and papacy. But because words had power, they could also be deployed as weapons. Speech contained the potential for violence and presented a threat to political and social order, and thus needed to be controlled. Dr. Vise shows how the laws that governed and curtailed speech in medieval Italy represented broader cultural understandings of human susceptibility to speech. Tracing anthropologies of speech from religious to political discourse, from civic courts to ecclesiastical courts, from medical texts to the works of Dante and Boccaccio, The Unruly Tongue demonstrates that the thirteenth century marked a major shift in how people perceived the power, and the threat, of speech: a change in thinking about “what words do.” This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
