Los tres interlocutores de la obra -el caballero tortosino Lívio, el ciudadano tortosino Fàbio y el caballero valenciano don Pedro- dirimen sus posiciones ligeramente contrastadas sobre la realidad política, social y eclesiástica de su tiempo en una controversia elegante, mientras caminan por las calles de Tortosa y navegan por el Ebro. Esta edición, la número 172 de la serie Textos i Estudis de Cultura Catalana, ha sido editada a partir de la colación de nuevos testimonios y de una lectura más atenta de los manuscritos ya conocidos, ofreciendo una visión paradigmática del Renacimiento catalán.

Malgrat la distància que ens en separa, els temes tractats són de plena vi-gència (la llengua catalana, les relacions amb la Corona Hispànica, les Terres de l?Ebre?), i tenen un innegable interès per a lector d?avui. La versió de Joan Todó, fidel però molt accessible, supera la barrera de la llengua antiga i l?apropa a la nostra sensibilitat moderna, permetent que per primer cop aquesta obra cabdal de la literatura del Renaixament a Catalunya arribi a tots els lectors. L?obra consta de sis col loquis, dels quals en reproduïm els tres millors. Tots ells diferents, tracten temes que saniran component de forma dialogada entre els tres interlocutors que tracten de temes tan diversos com la llengua catalana, la situació de Catalunya i la Corona d?Argó dins la monar-quia Hispànica, o l?activitat política de l?època. El diàleg s?estableix entre ciutadà Fàbio, el cavaller Lúcio, que representa l?autor, i el cavaller valencià Don Pedro, a qui mostren els problemes i les belleses de Tortosa. Però l?obra ultrapassa l?àmbit local i tracta d?aspectes dels Països Catalans, de la Corona d?Aragó, de la monarquia hispànica i del context europeu de l?època. Despuig hi aborda temes tan diversos com l?estructura política de la monarquia espanyola (i la incardinació de Catalunya dins d?aquesta, tot denunciant l?ofensiva dels intel lectuals al servei de la Corona de Castella a favor de la identificació entre aquesta i Espanya, aleshores inci-pient, menystenint els regnes perifèrics), la situació lingüística als Països Catalans, fent una sentida defensa de la llengua catalana, la política eclesiàstica (sense estalviar crítiques a la institu-ció pontifícia), les relacions socials i la representativitat política, o la descripció del recursos natu-rals de les Terres de l?Ebre i la proposta de projectes de desenvolupament econòmic. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. Renaissance dialogues from C16th Catalonia, in which three speakers elegantly discuss politics, society and the Church.Dialogue is one of the Classical genres reclaimed by the Renaissance, which turns it into a hallmark of the period. In the Catalan-speaking world nearly forty dialogues were written in the course of the Renaissance. Despuig's Dialogues, written in 1557, stand out from the rest by the extent to which they incorporate the most innovative aspects of the genre: the dramatisation of Renaissance multiple perspectives and the consistency of the fictional plot that provides a structure for the ideas. The Dialogues offer a critical review of a host of issues that were topical at the time. The three speakers in the work - Livio, the knight from Tortosa; Fabio, the gentleman from Tortosa; and Don Pedro, the knight from Valencia - elegantly exchange their subtly contrasting views regarding politics, society and the Church as they stroll through the streets of the city Tortosa and sail along the Ebro.The main features of the dialogue, which typify the revival of the genre in the Renaissance, lie in the way it expresses differing opinions, creates multiple perspectives and constructs a consistent plot that imitates a spontaneous conversation whilst providing a structure for the speakers' reflections. Both the ways in which it articulates the discussion and the specific ideas that it allocates to its speakers make Despuig's Dialogues a text thatexemplifies the Renaissance in Catalonia.

Tapa blanda. Condition: New. Los col·loquis de la insigne ciutat de Tortosa (1557) del donzell Cristòfol Despuig (1510-1574) són un diàleg pluritemàtic que reflexiona amb perspectiva crítica sobre la realitat coetània. Els tres interlocutors de l obra ¬¬ el cavaller tortosí Lívio, el ciutadà tortosí Fàbio i el cavaller valencià don Pedro dirimeixen les seves posicions lleugerament contrastades sobre la realitat política, social i eclesiàstica del seu temps en una controvèrsia elegant, mentre caminen pels carrers de Tortosa i naveguen per l Ebre. L articulació d opinions, el poliperspectivisme o la construcció d una trama de ficció consistent que imita les estratègies d una conversa espontània i estructura les reflexions són recursos característics del diàleg renaixentista. Tant la manera d articular el diàleg com les idees concretes dels seus interlocutors converteixen Los col·loquis en un text paradigmàtic del Renaixement català, que ara s edita a partir de la col·lació de nous testimonis i d una lectura més atenta dels manuscrits ja coneguts.…
