Biagio Santorelli – författare

An enormous turbot is presented to Emperor Domitian, who then calls upon his cabinet to determine the very best way to prepare the fish: This absurd situation provides occasion for Juvenal to undertake a broader critique of the decline of politics and morals during his time. This work re-examines Juvenal’s big fish satire through detailed scholarly commentary. It includes the original text along with a new Italian translation. Santorelli demonstrates that Juvenal's satire not only looks back at the earlier period of Domitian’s rule but also is intended as an indirect critique of the political system of the Optimus Princeps Trajan.

Ein riesiger Steinbutt wird Kaiser Domitian überreicht, der daraufhin sein Kabinett einberuft, um die beste Art, den Fisch zuzubereiten, festzulegen: eine absurde Situation, die Juvenal Anlass zu einer weiteren Kritik am Verfall von Politik und Moral seiner Zeit bietet.

In diesem Buch wird die sogenannte Fischsatire durch einen ausführlichen Kommentar neu erschlossen. Der Text sowie eine neue italienische Übersetzung sind beigegeben. Santorelli weist nach, dass Juvenal mit seiner Satire nicht nur an die zurückliegende Herrschaftszeit Domitians erinnert, sondern zugleich indirekt Kritik am Regierungssystem des optimus princeps Trajan übt.

No detailed description available for "Giovenale, "Satira" V".

This new interpretation of V Satire is embedded in a broader analysis of a central topos in Juvenal''s work: the degradation of the clientela. The introduction illuminates Juvenal''s attitude towards this topic, giving particular attention to his relationship to Martial and to the reception of this topos by Lucian. The commentary explains text critical and linguistic issues and thoroughly investigates the most relevant historical aspects.

Der Band enthält vier Aufsätze, die von Lennart Håkanson zwischen 1976 und 1982 verfasst, aber aufgrund seines Todes nie veröffentlicht wurden. Håkanson bietet eine allgemeine Darstellung der argumenta in den pseudo-quintilianischen Declamationes maiores und untersucht einige der wichtigsten literarischen Modelle dieser Reden (Cicero, Seneca, Declamationes minores) sowie ihre Überlieferungsgeschichte. Der letzte Aufsatz ist einer umfassenden Analyse der rhythmischen Klausel in den Declamationes maiores gewidmet: Håkanson setzt sich mit älteren Studien zu diesem Thema auseinander und liefert ein unentbehrliches Instrument zur Datierung der einzelnen Reden der Sammlung.

At his sudden death in 1987, Håkanson left a number of unpublished scholarly works. A former volume in this series (2014) printed four essays on the pseudo-Quintilianic Major Declamations; one more has appeared elsewhere. The present volume contains a commentary on Book One of the Controversiae by Seneca the Elder. After an introductory note by the editors, Michael Winterbottom offers a sympathetic appreciation of Håkanson’s life and scholarship. This is followed by a full bibliography of his publications. Håkanson’s own introduction deals with three key issues: Seneca’s sources and his use of memory; his method of composition; and the textual tradition of the excerpts from his work. Håkanson’s Teubner text (1989) of Controversiae I is subsequently reprinted. The core of the volume is Håkanson’s commentary, mostly – but not exclusively – devoted to textual elucidation. The volume closes with a bibliographical updating on the issues dealt with by Håkanson in the book, and an index locorum. With its keen insights and stimulating discussions, this publication appeals not only to scholars focussing on ancient rhetoric, but to anyone concerned with the culture of the Roman imperial era.
