Uncovering a lot of new information not previously mentioned in the literature on Filelfo, twelve specialized scholars draw attention to long-neglected material, shedding new light on Filelfo’s intellectual endeavors and his literary journey between Greek and Latin. This illuminating collection offers historians of ideas as well as literary scholars and Neo-Latinists new inroads into Filelfo’s vast oeuvre, and through it to the world of Quattrocento humanism.    Contributors include: Jean-Louis Charlet, Guy Claessens, Jeroen De Keyser, Tom Deneire, Ide François, James Hankins, Noreen Humble, Gary Ianziti, Han Lamers, David Marsh, John Monfasani, and Jan Papy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...ricca miscellanea [...] con una bibliografia corposa e un prezioso indice dei nomi.\"    Simone Miolano, Università Firenze, in Medioevo greco, vol. 20, pp. 404-405.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Contributors    Introduction: A Century of Filelfo Studies   Jeroen De Keyser    Greekness    Filelfo and the Byzantines   John Monfasani    Hellenism and Cultural Unease in Italian Humanism:  The Case of Francesco Filelfo   Han Lamers    Philosophy    Filelfo’s Plato: Always Already There   Guy Claessens    Epicureanism and Stoicism in Francesco Filelfo’s Letters: A Reconsideration   Jan Papy    Histories    Filelfo and the Spartans   James Hankins    Filelfo and the Writing of History   Gary Ianziti    Rivalry    Erudition, Emulation and Enmity in the Dedication Letters to Filelfo’s Greek to Latin Translations   Noreen Humble    Francesco Filelfo as a Writer of Invective   David Marsh    Form    La métrique latine de Filelfo: épopée, satire, élégie, ode   Jean-Louis Charlet    Filelfo, Cicero and Epistolary Style: A Computational Study   Tom Deneire    Bibliography  Index Nominum","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210760085847,"sku":"9789004382138","price":106.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/francesco-filelfo-man-of-letters-9789004382138","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
