"The ancient commentaries and scholia to Cicero's speeches have hitherto received relatively little scholarly attention. This volume is dedicated to Asconius' first-century commentary and the corpora of the scholia stemming from the 4th-7th centuries (Bobbio, ps.-Asconius, and Gronovius). It shows the specific interpretative challenges of these corpora and offers interpretative case studies. Furthermore, it contextualizes the corpora within the learning and learned environment of their time, by contrasting them with rhetorical teaching (via the transmission of Cicero on papyri and his presence in the Rhetores Latini minores) and other ancient commentaries (on Homer and Demosthenes)"--

The result of a collaboration between the Centre for Classical Studies of the University of Lisbon and the Centre for Classical and Humanistic Studies of the University of Coimbra to celebrate the five hundredth anniversary of the birth of Jerónimo Osório, the book Portuguese and European Humanism. On the 5th centenary of Cicero Lusitanus: Don Jerónimo Osório (1515-1580) brings together the studies of several collaborators from different European universities. In addition to the analysis of the life and work of the Portuguese humanist, namely his literary, historiographic and epistolary production, as well as the treatises on moral and political philosophy and commentaries on biblical texts, this volume also aims to offer an overview of the European Renaissance rooted in the study and reading of classical authors at the time of Jerónimo Osório.

The book brings together seven essays on Cicero written by specialists in the Author. The essays are grouped into two sections: the first one presents papers on Cicero’s works (the dialogues: Lucullus, De finibus, De oratore, De officiis); the papers in the second one discuss on both the early and late reception of Cicero (in Seneca, Petrarch and Erasmus). The authors are professors from Brazilian (Adriano Scatolin, Bianca Fanelli Morganti, Elaine Cristine Sartorelli, Sidney Calheiros de Lima), French (Carlos Lévy) and Italian universities (Aldo Setaioli, Ermanno Malaspina). The book avoids traditional biographical approach, which tends to take the works of Cicero as a reliable witness of political and family events, sometimes distrusts them as a distorted picture of public and private actors. The essays here assembled also avoid conceiving Cicero’s works as either the Author’s profession of faith in a philosophical doctrine, or a tendentious presentation of the theses of philosophical schools. Instead, the contributors adopt another interpretative key, so that, when analyzing a philosophical dialogue of Cicero, instead of seeking references to its historical moment, focus on its controversial aspects (due to the dispute between the schools of philosophy), rhetorical aspects (the amplifying devices through which the Author compares the strength of one thesis with the weakness of another), fictional aspects (including the description of the scene and the picture of the characters). Thus, it can be said that the book seeks a more appropriate approach to Cicero’s works, not taking them as mere source of historical knowledge, but considering their historicity, that is, the devices for discursive production of their own time.

Cicéron, en tant que maître d’éloquence, est l’un des auteurs classiques les plus copiés au Moyen Âge. Figure tutélaire de la rhétorique, il est aussi un modèle récurrent des pratiques vertueuses, christianisé par les Pères de l’Église. À ces influences, l’historiographie consacrée à l’Italie communale a ajouté une dimension politique, en notant, tout particulièrement dans le cadre florentin, l’application des normes cicéroniennes aux définitions du juste gouvernement et du bon citoyen. Or cette dette médiévale n’est pas datée avec précision par les historiens : à quand faire remonter les prémices de l’« humanisme civique » ? Ce livre vise à estimer le rôle formateur et légitimateur attribué à Cicéron quant aux normes civiques communales. Par le biais de l’auteur classique, il interroge l’unité et les spécificités des idéaux politiques de cet espace institutionnel en mobilisant un large corpus : sources normatives, florilèges, dictamina, traités de regimine, traductions invitent à reconsidérer le regard « républicain » qu’aurait porté le lecteur médiéval sur ce modèle antique.
