Abstract

The volume Intorno a Boccaccio / Boccaccio e dintorni was born thanks to the international seminar held in Certaldo on 25th June 2014, and it is the ideal continuation of the intense study activity characterising the hundredth anniversary of Boccaccio's birth, to which many young scholars attended. This volume collects contributions by young and very young people, some of them at their first publication, with the aim of giving space to current new researches. The discussed topics, which do not fail to consider Boccaccio's Latin and Greek culture, touch on aspects of Italian linguistics and lexicography, on the textual tradition of Latin and Vernacular works, on the commentaries to Boccaccio's works and on the geographical universe within which the Decameron places itself.

Abstract

Bien que les plus anciennes informations sur la découverte d'outils lithiques en Grèce remontent à la fin du xixe s., il a fallu attendre l'époque de la Seconde Guerre mondiale pour qu'une première fouille soit effectuée sur un site paléolithique. Par la suite, prospections et fouilles se succéderont et s'étaleront sur toute la période d'après-guerre, notamment au cours de la décennie 1960-70, partagées entre plusieurs écoles archéologiques : les Anglais travailleront en Épire. Les Américains en Argolide, les Français en Élide, les Allemands et les Grecs en Thessalie. Quarante ans après, les fruits de cette activité scientifique internationale sont là. Mais aucun bilan n'a jamais été fait, aucune synthèse n'a été tentée. C'est en cela que le livre de Georgia Kourtessi-Philippakis est une première. L'auteur, après avoir parcouru le territoire de la Grèce continentale, visité les sites et étudié leur matériel archéologique, entreprend ici une mise au point qui va au-delà d'un bilan historique. Dans un premier temps tous les sites paléolithiques connus sont présentés, région par région. Une note, dont les dimensions sont fonction de l'intérêt scientifique du gisement, fouillé ou non, fait état de sa localisation, des conditions de découverte, de la stratigraphie, des industries, de la faune, de la bibliographie s'y rapportant. Suivent les discussions, remises en question, hypothèses personnelles autour des thèmes classiques tels que le paléoenvironnement, l'organisation de l'économie, le mode de vie, l'outillage, le cadre chronologique. Dans le dernier chapitre sont exposées les conclusions scientifiques et sont analysés les problèmes posés par l'étude du Paléolithique grec en vue d'une amplification de cette recherche, si vitale pour une meilleure connaissance de la Préhistoire du Sud-Est Européen.
