Capitolo | Sannazaro e la scelta del prosimetro: riflessi sulla tradizione manoscritta
Abstract
The essay examines the manuscript tradition of Iacopo Sannazaro’s Arcadia, focusing mainly on the codices that contain only the poems (eclogues) of the prosimetrum. By studying this specific group of incomplete manuscripts, it becomes possible to reveal the attitudes of copyists and readers towards such a revolutionary work in which the pastoral genre and the prosimetric structure are combined. Finally, I seek to explain why Sannazaro opted for this particular form.
