This is the third and final volume of essays issuing from the Leverhulme International Network 'Renaissance Conflict and Rivalries: Cultural Polemics in Europe, c. 1300–c. 1650'. The overall aim of the network was to examine the various ways in which conflict and rivalries made a positive contribution to cultural production and change during the Renaissance. The present volume, which contains papers delivered at the third colloquium, draws that examination to a close by considering a range of different strategies deployed in the period to manage conflict and rivalries and to bring them to a positive resolution. The papers explore these developments in the context of political, diplomatic, social, institutional, religious, and art history.

Die vorliegenden Bände enthalten die Vorträge, die bei der Trinationalen Forschungskonferenz gehalten wurden, welche die drei HerausgeberInnen zum Thema „Die Horaz-Rezeption in der neulateinischen Literatur vom 15. bis zum 17. Jahrhundert (Deutschland – Frankreich – Italien)“ in den Jahren 2012–2014 in der Villa Vigoni am Comer See veranstaltet haben. Die Forschungskonferenz setzte sich zum Ziel, die Rezeption des Horaz in der neulateinischen Literatur dreier europäischer Kerngebiete, Italien, Deutschland und Frankreich, zu untersuchen. Es galt, übergreifende Tendenzen, Entwicklungen und Zäsuren der Horaz-Rezeption in der neulateinischen Literatur der Frühen Neuzeit in ihren literatur-, ideen- und kulturgeschichtlichen Kontexten sowie im transnationalen Vergleich zu analysieren. Sont ici d’une part étudiés les différents textes et traditions qui illustrent la diversité des usages d’Horace à l’âge moderne et d’autre part explorées les raisons pour lesquelles il exerce à cette époque (et bien au-delà, dans certains cas jusqu’à aujourd’hui) une si durable fascination qui ne tient pas seulement à son statut d’auteur ancien modèle mais également au fait qu’il est considéré et aimé comme un véritable compagnon de vie incarnant des vertus telles que l’amitié ou la sociabilité. L’étude se focalise sur la période qui va du XVe au XVIIe siècle, époque représentative des pratiques de la littérature néo-latine dans la république des lettres européenne. Orazio impegna i lettori moderni in tre direzioni: come maestro di poetica (Horatius criticus), come poeta lirico (Horatius lyricus) e come guida morale (Horatius ethicus). Su questi diversi aspetti si è basata l’articolazione del programma dei tre incontri seminariali, che corrisponde alla strutturazione di questi volumi di atti. Le diverse modalità della fortuna di Orazio e lo stato delle conoscenze sul poeta, testimoniato da edizioni, commenti e uso nell’istruzione scolastica, hanno costituito un tema trasversale sotteso all’insieme dei contributi. Dopo la pubblicazione dell’Enciclopedia oraziana (1996–1998), si tratta della prima iniziativa complessiva, di ampiezza internazionale e interdisciplinare, dedicata allo studio della ricezione di Orazio.

Forms of Conflict and Rivalries in Renaissance Europe

This volume is devoted to the spheres in which conflict and rivalries unfolded during the Renaissance and how these social, cultural and geographical settings conditioned the polemics themselves. This is the second of three volumes on ‘Renaissance Conflict and Rivalries’, which together present the results of research pursued in an International Leverhulme Network. The underlying assumption of the essays in this volume is that conflict and rivalries took place in the public sphere that cannot be understood as single, all-inclusive and universally accessible, but needs rather to be seen as a conglomerate of segments of the public sphere, depending on the persons and the settings involved. The articles collected here address various questions concerning the construction of different segments of the public sphere in Renaissance conflict and rivalries, as well as the communication processes that went on in these spaces to initiate, control and resolve polemical exchanges.

Spheres of Conflict and Rivalries in Renaissance Europe

Cultural and intellectual dynamism often stand in close relationship to the expression of viewpoints and positions that are in tension or even conflict with one another. This phenomenon has a particular relevance for Early Modern Europe, which was heavily marked by polemical discourse. The dimensions and manifestations of this Streitkultur are being explored by an International Network funded by the Leverhulme Trust (United Kingdom). The present volume contains the proceedings of the Network's first colloquium, which focused on the forms of Renaissance conflict and rivalries, from the perspectives of history, language and literature.
