Title

Discorso sopra la materia degli affetti

Description

Fabio Benvoglienti's Discorso sopra la materia de gli affetti is conceived as an introduction to (and compendium of) Aristotle's discussion of passions in Rhetoric, book 2. After a short preamble in which the Author explains Aristotle's priority in dealing with the subject, Benvoglienti approaches the key-terms of the discussion explaining the meaning of the relevant Greek notions and words; he anticipates a paraphrase which was not published along with the Discorso.
