• Title:
  Dynamics of “Affetti” in Seventeenth-century Italian Novel
• Creator:
  Morando, Simona
• Description:
  The fortune of seventeenth-century Italian romance among readers is also based on an effective representation of passions. In this essay some examples from novels are offered to enlighten the major affective dynamics: love, in the case of La Stratonica by Luca Assarino (1635), and heroism, in the case of Demetrio moscovita by Maiolino Bisaccioni (1639), noting how the first novel imitate and exalt the traditional elegiacs modalities, while the latter sink in the core of the seventeenth-century most urgent matters, such as the Reason of State. Treatises on the passions (“affetti”) of that time, mentioned here for the exemplary case of Tommaso Buoni, supports the switch from classical  categories towards a modern vision of human affections.
