Download or read book De Monarchia written by Dante Alighieri and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2019 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The treatise 'De monarchia', in three books, originally written in Latin, here in an English translation, contains the mature statement of Dante's political ideas. In it he propounds the theory that the supremacy of the emperor is derived from the supremacy of the Roman people over the world, which was given to them direct from God. As the emperor is intended to assure their earthly happiness, so does their spiritual welfare depend upon the pope, to whom the emperor is to do honour as to the first-born of the Father. The date of its publication is almost universally admitted to be the time of the descent of Henry VII. into Italy, between 1310 and 1313, although its composition may have been in hand from a much earlier period. The book was first printed by Oporinus at Basel in 1559, and placed on the Index of forbidden books. This edition is annotated with more than 450 notes.

Book Synopsis Dante’s Modernity by : Claude Lefort
Download or read book Dante’s Modernity written by Claude Lefort and published by ICI Berlin Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Claude Lefort, one of the most prominent political philosophers of the twentieth century, reads Dante’s Monarchia and demonstrates the surprising relevance of this radical fourteenth-century treatise defending the necessity of a universal monarchy independent from the Church. Written to accompany a new French translation of Dante’s treatise in 1993 and appearing here for the first time in English, Lefort’s essay exemplifies his signature method of taking political philosophy in new directions by reframing key works from the history of political thought. Dante’s Monarchia was attacked early on by the Church, burned as heretical in 1329, and remained on the Vatican’s index of prohibited works until 1881. With trenchant insight and his characteristic attention to detail, Lefort pursues the often hidden influence of Dante’s long suppressed treatise on the politics and political thought of subsequent centuries. He also challenges us to explore its still unrealized potential by disentangling Dante’s notion of universal sovereignty from its historical links to imperialism and nationalism. Drawing out the provocation of Dante’s treatise for contemporary debates, Lefort’s essay presents readers of Dante with a remarkably fresh account of an oft-neglected yet crucial part of the author’s oeuvre. In her extensive interpretive essay, Judith Revel submits Lefort’s encounter with Dante to a transformative mis/reading and shows the importance of Dante’s text for Lefort’s conception of political philosophy. She carefully reconstructs its radical legacy, all too frequently reduced to a postmarxist turn or even mistaken for an affirmation of liberal democracy. The two essays are accompanied by a note from their translator, Jennifer Rushworth, and a preface by Christiane Frey.

Book excerpt: The reader should not be mistaken. This is not a book of stories like The Divine Comedy. It is an essay (as we would call it today) by Dante Alighieri about the power struggle in his time. De Monarchia is a political work; in fact, it had great political influence. Motivated to write it around 1313, during the unsuccessful siege that Henry VII of Luxembourg subjected the city of Florence to, Dante seeks to contribute to eradicating the prevailing anarchy in Italy and specifically in the city of Florence with this work. He dreams of a social order that establishes peace and, in a clearly Ghibelline tone, uses a logical rhetoric based on the Scholastics, the Greek and Roman classics, the historians Livy and Orosius, Marcus Tullius Cicero and Aristotle, and the Bible, elaborating a set of ideas that go against the papal bull Unam Sanctam of 1302, by Pope Boniface VIII. Therefore, De Monarchia is a treatise on the conflict between temporal and spiritual power. The theme was already controversial at the time: the relationship between the authority represented by the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and the authority of the Pope. Dante's point of view is known, since during his political activity he fought to defend the autonomy of the government of the city of Florence from the interference of Boniface VIII. Chronologically, De Monarchia should be placed after the treatise De vulgari eloquentia and before Paradiso, that is, in a period between the second and third parts of The Divine Comedy. The original was written in Latin and is composed of three books, but the most significant is the third, in which Dante more explicitly confronts the theme of the relations between the Pope and the Emperor.

They were Rome and her citizens or people. On this subject our Poet has touched very subtly in his sixth book, where he brings forward Anchises prophesying in these words to Aeneas, father of the Romans: " Verily, that others shall beat out the breathing bronze more finely, I grant you; they shall carve the living feature in the marble, plead causes with more eloquence, and trace the movements of the heavens with a rod, and name the rising stars: thine, O Roman, be the care to rule the peoples with authority; be thy arts these, to teach men the way of peace, to show mercy...
Book Synopsis Dante as Political Theorist by : Maria Luisa Ardizzone
Download or read book Dante as Political Theorist written by Maria Luisa Ardizzone and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dante’s Latin treatise Monarchia inscribes itself within the long medieval conflict between Pope and Emperor and the debate that opposed the theorists of theocracy to the supporters of the empire. The Monarchia, traditionally assumed to be a subversive work as its tormented reception testifies – it remained listed in the Index of Prohibited Books from 1559 to the end of the 19th century – results from the strong connection Dante emphasized between politics and ethics. The bene esse of human beings is the crucial issue that the treatise discusses since its very beginning. More than focusing on power and sovereignty, the Monarchia aims to demonstrate that the government of a single universal ruler guarantees the achievement of the natural goal of human life. The central role assigned to the Emperor discloses, in fact, the importance the poet gives to earthly happiness and to the temporal dimension of humanitas. The essays in this volume are the result of the first International Symposium of the Global Dante Project of New York, a scholarly initiative committed to the systematic study of the whole of Dante’s opus. Held in 2015 and devoted to the Monarchia, this inaugural event saw the participation of scholars from Europe and the USA who investigated Dante’s political treatise addressing diverse issues and from multiple and innovative methodological perspectives. The fertile discussion generated on that occasion and the insights it produced animate this book.

Download or read book The De Monarchia of Dante Alighieri (Classic Reprint) written by Aurelia Henry and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The De Monarchia of Dante Alighieri The De Monarchia is easily accessible in Latin editions, but an English version is practically unobtainable, at least by the American student of Dante. To be sure, it has twice been done into English, once by Mr. F. J. Church (Macmillan, 1878), and again by Mr. P. H. Wicksteed (Hull, 1896). If the former translation had not been long out of print, and the latter had not been published for private circulation only, the present volume would have less excuse for being. But with the growing interest in Dante, and the increasing number of Dante students in this country, the demand for ready access to all the poets work becomes imperative. It is in response to this demand of the American student of Dante in and out of college that this translation has been undertaken. In the notes which accompany the text the translator has had in mind chiefly the needs and interests of the literary student.
