Tra manoscritti e stampati. Sannazzaro, Vittoria Colonna, Tansillo e altri saggi sul Cinquecento

The essays collected in this volume are the balance of research dedicated mainly to protagonists of the literary history of Naples in the phase that goes from the sunset of the Aragonese Kingdom to the long viceregnato of Don Pedro de Toledo. Although it lacks its role as capital, Naples remains a crossroads of theoretical elaborations and literary experiences, in a fruitful exchange between the glorious humanist tradition founded by Pontano, with the boundary of old and new generation academics, and the progressive advance of the literature in the vernacular, both capable of keeping open the dialogue with Italy and Europe, exerting a modeling influence also on the Spanish 'conquerors', as evidenced by the poetic trajectory of Garcilaso de la Vega.
From Sannazaro to Di Costanzo, passing through Vittoria Colonna, Tansillo and other lesser-known literati, the various chapters arise from the revisiting of manuscript and printed traditions, submitting critical findings considered definitively acquired and proposing new interpretative hypotheses, with the recovery in some cases of submerged biographies or lost identities.

After completing Luigi Tansillo’s “Canzoniere” new edition, which had been stopped in 1926 due to Erasmo Pèrcopo death, he started in 2010 (the fifth centenary on Tansillo’s birth), the complete edition of his works, such as “Capitoli giocosi e satirici”, ( Carmine Boccia and Tobia R.
