In this essay it is published and analyzed a Gualtiero Sanvitale’s eclogue (ms. Parigino Italiano 1543, BNF, ff. 232r-234r), in which Ludovico il Moro persuades the shepherd Eugenio to marry Thyrenzia. The article deals with Sanvitale’s poetry by inserting it into the bucolic corpus of fifteenth century; thus we find in it some topical aspects (eg. a specific metrical system, expressed in verse 60; love and solidarity among shepherds; allusive feature of historical figures) and also some elements of dissonance by the tradition (eg. happy ending with the marriage between shepherds; praise of city life). In such a case these choices seem justified by the celebratory purposes of the eclogue, which depict Ludovico il Moro as a generous deus ex machina and as an arbiter to the fate of his subjects. In conclusion, the article proposes to identify the other characters, whom appear in the text, in Anna Sforza (Thyrenzia), Alfonso (Eugenio) and Ferrante d’Este (Melibeo).

Abstract
In this essay it is published and analyzed a Gualtiero Sanvitale’s eclogue (ms. Parigino Italiano 1543, BNF, ff. 232r-234r), in which Ludovico il Moro persuades the shepherd Eugenio to marry Thyrenzia. The article deals with Sanvitale’s poetry by inserting it into the bucolic corpus of fifteenth century; thus we find in it some topical aspects (eg. a specific metrical system, expressed in verse 60; love and solidarity among shepherds; allusive feature of historical figures) and also some elements of dissonance by the tradition (eg. happy ending with the marriage between shepherds; praise of city life). In such a case these choices seem justified by the celebratory purposes of the eclogue, which depict Ludovico il Moro as a generous deus ex machina and as an arbiter to the fate of his subjects. In conclusion, the article proposes to identify the other characters, whom appear in the text, in Anna Sforza (Thyrenzia), Alfonso (Eugenio) and Ferrante d’Este (Melibeo).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
