| dc.description.abstract | The PhD thesis, New Taxi Exegetical Pathways, deals first of all with the
arrangement and study of bibliographic material, which was necessary for the
drafting of the research project, not only in the Library and the journal fund of the
University of Salerno, but also in the Vatican Apostolic Library and in the Library of
the "Centro di Studi Tassiani" of Bergamo. The retrieval of these texts was
fundamental for the articulation of the structure of work, which presents as an
introductory part the variegated framework of poetic production, particularly lyrical,
of the 16th century, with precise references to the history, forms and canons of the
madrigal, from the first to the late Renaissance. The poetic motifs inspired by the
Neoplatonic conception of beauty have also been investigated, compared with the
topical elements of the Italian poetic tradition and merged with some fundamental
themes, such as the multiformity, the mutability and the multiplicity of the
manifestations of beauty, components emblematically embodied by the god Proteus ,
a key figure in the entire series of madrigals, so congenial to the poetics of Tasso as to
inform numerous areas of his entire production. The texts have been explored, from a
methodological point of view, according to a dynamic dimension, bringing into
dialogue both the previous textual history with the provisional manuscript
crystallization, and the subsequent one. Moreover, this optic was useful both for the
data relating to the structure and for those relating to the revision process, especially
to describe how the first lines originally represent some of the peculiarities of the
wider taxi-opera lyrical laboratory... [edited by Author] | it_IT |
