During the Middle Ages Lactantius’ works, while largely neglected, had enjoyed moments of intense interest and study. From the death of Lactantius (325) to his broad Quattrocento recovery, many profound cultural and intellectual shifts had transpired. Consequently, Rho’s dialogues engage topics arising from scholastic and other debates in jurisprudence, cosmology, astrology, geography, philosophy, and theology. He was convinced that insights from these fields would elucidate errors of Lactantius that his readers had overlooked. This reveals much about the cultural and intellectual developments that shaped readers’ efforts to recover, comprehend, and define Lactantius as an author. Significantly, the list of Lactantius’ errors discussed in the dialogues was printed with nearly every edition of Lactantius through the sixteenth century and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments  List of Figures  Abbreviations  Works of Antonio da Rho    Introduction    Sigla    Abbreviations in Critical Apparatus    Errors and Treatises    Dialogue 1    Dialogue 2    Dialogue 3    Appendices    Appendix 1: Niccolò Arcimboldi, Glosses on the Three Dialogues against Lactantius  Appendix 2: Francesco Filelfo, Letter to Antonio da Rho  Appendix 3: Pier Candido Decembrio, Letter to Antonio da Rho  Bibliography  Manuscript Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210833650007,"sku":"9789004499522","price":215.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/antonio-da-rho-three-dialogues-against-lactantius-dialogi-tres-in-lactentium-critical-latin-edition-english-translation-introduction-and-notes-9789004499522","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
