Socrate: mito ed etica della conoscenza. Studio sugli scritti socratici di Walter Friedrich Otto

This book deals with the yet unpublished writings on Socrates of the German philologist Walter F. Otto (1874-1958) stored at the German Literaturarchiv in Marbach am Neckar. It provides a comprehensive interpretation of all the manuscripts, notes, drafts for conferences, and university lectures Otto wrote on Socrates from the 1940s to 1958. These writings touch upon the following topics: Otto’s ancient and modern sources on Socrates, his account of the “novelty” Socrates, Socrates’ character, ph...

Sokrates und der zweifache Eros in den Überliefrungen von Antisthenes, Aischines und Platon

This paper focuses on Socrates's ambivalent view of eros. According to the testimonies of Antisthenes, Aeschines, Plato, and Xenophon, Socrates praises the erotic sunousia that leads to virtue and knowledge, and censures the erotic sunousia that aims at achieving physical pleasure (hedone). The first kind of synousia has a protreptic function, since it improves those who are affected by it; the second kind induces lack of control (hubris), and annihilates virtue. This ambivalence of eros is evid...

Aporia o definizione? Il ti esti negli scritti socratici di Senofonte

This paper deals with a much-discussed issue among Socratic scholars, Socrates’s quest for “what is” (ti esti). So far, ti esti has been tackled by taking into account almost exclusively Plato’s testimony, or authors that depend on that testimony (especially Aristotle, at Met. 987b1-11, 1078b17-32, and 1086b3-7). This led to a series of difficulties, since in Plato the issue of ti esti is closely linked to the theory of ideas, which in itself poses a series of logical problems. Robinson (1953), ...

?Nebbiolo? genome assembly allows surveying the occurrence and functional implications of genomic structural variations in grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.)

Background: 'Nebbiolo' is a grapevine cultivar typical of north-western Italy, appreciated for producing high-quality red wines. Grapevine cultivars are characterized by possessing highly heterozygous genomes, including a great incidence of genomic rearrangements larger than 50 bp, so called structural variations (SVs). Even though abundant, SVs are an under-explored source of genetic variation mainly due to methodological limitations at their detection.Results: We employed a multiple platform a...

Socrate e la cura dell'anima. Dialogo e apertura al mondo

This book deals with the Greek cure of the soul, focusing in particular on Socrates, who turned this idea into the core of his own philosophy. The first chapter offers an overlook of the different meanings of psyche from myth to Homer, Orphism, and the Presocratics (until Diogenes of Apollonia). The following chapters deal with Socrates’ peculiar understanding of the cure of the soul. Chapter two introduces to the “Socratic question” from the viewpoint of the Socratic cure of the soul. Chapter t...
