Il presente volume intende indagare la tematica dell'ars dictaminis secondo un approccio di impianto codicologico e paleografico, ovvero attraverso lo studio primario delle testimonianze manoscritte che si prefigge di condurre ad una migliore contestualizzazione storica del fenomeno, e di analizzare le strette interrelazioni esistenti tra l'ars dictaminis e il sistema politico e sociale dell'epoca. Apre il volume una introduzione di carattere generale sullo scopo e sulla metodologia adoperata nella ricerca, e sull'importanza di una impostazione codicologica alla questione. Nei due capitoli successivi si individueranno gli aspetti caratterizzanti la produzione e la circolazione manoscritta dettatoria riguardante, rispettivamente, i secoli XIII e XIV, e il periodo umanistico. Segue un quarto capitolo dove si illustreranno, in un'ottica comparativa, le peculiarità della tradizione manoscritta di autori e testi in rapporto con le opere del retore bolognese, come la Brevis introductio ad dictamen di Giovanni di Bonandrea, i trattati morali di Albertano da Brescia e la Piccola dottrina del parlare e del tacere. Concluderanno il volume tavole sinottiche finalizzate a rendere facilmente consultabile l'elenco dei testimoni analizzati. This volume is dedicated to the study of medieval ars dictaminis. Analyzing several manuscript witnesses, it sheds light on the historical contextualization of the phenomenon and examines the close relationship between ars dictaminis and the political and social system of that time.

The Bible is one of the most published books in human history. It is also one of the most misquoted, misunderstood and misused books in human history. This happens because people are not always aware that the Bible is not a book, it is a collection of diverse writings. The Bible might even be called an anthology, and it will include everything from poetry to genealogy, pithy sayings to architectural mandates, mythology to letters. Knowing what one is reading helps one understand the ideas in the writings. We read letters in the context of who wrote them and who received them. We read sermons understanding the speaker's perspective may differ from the listener's perspective. So this text is an attempt to give historic, literary, geographical and cultural context to a complex and often poorly understood set of materials. This is very much an ebook, and needs to be used in that format. Pdfs and other printed versions will lose a great deal of the content.
