Genealogia Deorum Gentilium (original) (raw)
La Genealogia deorum gentilium (Genealogía de los dioses paganos) de Giovanni Boccaccio, dividida en quince libros, es una de las más completas recopilaciones de leyendas de la mitología griega, leyendas a las que el autor procura dar una interpretación alegórico-filosófica. Esta obra fue iniciada antes de 1350, a instancias de Hugo IV, rey de Chipre, dedicatario de la obra, aunque Boccaccio continuaría corrigiendo la obra hasta su muerte. Fue uno de los libros de consulta más utilizados entre escritores hasta avanzado el siglo XIX.

| dbo:abstract | La Genealogia deorum gentilium coneguda en català com a Genealogia dels déus pagans és un recull de llegendes de les mitologies grega i romana escrit en llatí pel poeta i autor italià Giovanni Boccaccio a partir de l'any 1360. Segons Boccaccio escriu al prefaci, va emprendre el projecte a petició d'Hug IV de Xipre. La primera versió va ser completada l'any 1360, i l'autor va corregir i revisar l'obra fins a la seva mort al 1374, de manera que existeixen diverses versions de l'obra copiades de manuscrits diferents. Mentre Boccaccio va ser viu i durant els dos segles següents, aquesta fou considerada la seva obra més important. La totalitat de les genealogies dels Déus clàssics són descrites en quinze llibres.

Fue uno de los libros de consulta más utilizados entre escritores hasta avanzado el siglo XIX. (es) Genealogia deorum gentilium, known in English as On the Genealogy of the Gods of the Gentiles, is a mythography or encyclopedic compilation of the tangled family relationships of the classical pantheons of Ancient Greece and Rome, written in Latin prose from 1360 onwards by the Italian author and poet Giovanni Boccaccio. The work is "humanist in spirit and medieval in structure". According to the Preface Boccaccio undertook the project at the request of Hugh IV of Cyprus. The first version was completed in 1360, and he continuously corrected and revised the work until his death in 1374, so that various redactions of the works were copied in different manuscript traditions. In his lifetime and for two centuries afterwards it was considered his most important work. The full range of genealogies of the classical Gods are described in the fifteen books, drawing on the standard earlier works, especially the , a 12th-century treatise by the otherwise unknown Albricus (possibly Alexander Neckam), and the older so-called Vatican Mythographies. These themselves drew on the late antique Christian Fulgentius, and writers of the actual period of classical paganism, especially Ovid and Statius. Some Greek material was probably supplied by his Greek teacher Leontius Pilatus. According to Malcolm Bull: "...Boccaccio does his best to make sense of the complex genealogy of the gods. But as he also allows for several gods of the same name, the result becomes enormously confusing. No subsequent mythographer followed his method of organizing material, yet Boccaccio's Genealogia retained its prestige and was to remain the most important mythological manual until the late sixteenth century." The next attempt at an equally comprehensive compilation on the subject of mythological genealogy would not come until 1548, when Giglio Gregorio Giraldi published his De deis gentium. The Genealogia was unkindly described by Edward Gibbon in his Decline and Fall as "a work, in that age, of stupendous erudition, and which he ostentatiously sprinkled with Greek characters and passages, to excite the wonder and applause of his more ignorant readers." and "a work which, though now forgotten, has run through thirteen or fourteen editions", although in fact there is evidence that Coleridge and Wordsworth read it together. Boccaccio was responsible for spreading the story, which he credited to Theodontius, that Demogorgon was the ancestor of all the heathen gods — based on a misspelled scholion to Statius, which had intended to claim ancestry for Plato's Demiurge. This gave rise to a literary and iconographic tradition lasting to John Milton and Shelley. From the earliest manuscripts, some believed to be Boccaccio autographs, diagrammatic family trees are included, which are thought to be the earliest non-Biblical uses of this type of graphic, which was already used in the form of the Jesse tree in art. The last two books of the work include a defence of poetry that is his latest and most extended discussion of the subject. (en) La Genealogia deorum gentilium è un'opera di Giovanni Boccaccio, scritta in latino in 15 libri, in cui sono interpretati allegoricamente molti miti delle divinità pagane. Nel trattato si cerca di mettere ordine sugli aggrovigliati rapporti di parentela tra le divinità del classico pantheon dell'antica Grecia e di Roma. Nella Prefazione l'autore asserisce di aver intrapreso il progetto su richiesta di Ugo IV di Cipro. La prima redazione del trattato, frutto di un lavoro protrattosi per un decennio, è del 1360; seguì poi una seconda edizione (1365/1370), ma successivamente Boccaccio continuò ad aggiornare l'opera fino alla propria morte (1375). L'editio princeps è del 1472, ma il successo dell'opera è legato soprattutto alla traduzione in volgare di Giuseppe Betussi, pubblicata la prima volta nel 1547 e più volte ristampata . Durante la vita del Boccaccio era diffusa l'opinione che la sua opera principale e quella da cui avrebbe tratto fama fosse la Genealogia deorum gentilium, mentre le opere in volgare erano trascurate.
