Learning Objectives

The aim of the course is to deepen the theoretical aspects and practical solutions relating to the critical edition vulgar for which the stemmatic method (also called Lachmann's method) prove ineffective or unenforceable. The aim of this course is to make students aware that philological work does not coincide with the mere mechanical application of a method, but with the editor's ability to make choices motivated critically, varying from time to time depending on the text and the author at hand. At the end of the course the student has to achieve a proper knowledge of the main problems connected with poetical texts by analysing some specific cases.

Program

In the first part of the course will be analysed and discussed the fundamentals of the stemmatic method, as a precondition to the topic of the course. Then there will be analysed three case studies respectively centred on 1. texts of high authorial feature  and with a tradition of over 50 manuscripts: Leonardo Bruni (attr.), La novella di Seleuco e Antioco; 2. authorial variants vs traditional variants: Luigi Pulci, La novella del picchio senese; 3. authorial redaction vs vulgata: Niccolò Machiavelli, Capitolo dell'ingratitudine.
