Hic abundant leones : uomo e natura nei testi mediolatini e romanzi : atti del convegno dottorale, Università degli studi di Siena (27-28 settembre 2023)

Includes bibliographical references and indexes.

The volume Hic abundant leones. Uomo e natura nei testi mediolatini e romanzi brings together the papers discussed during the five sessions of the Conference organised by the PhD students of Filologia e Critica at the University of Siena on 27 and 28 September 2023, with the purpose of creating a dialogue between Middle Latin and Romance philologies. The collected papers are organized into five sections, following a chronological structure based on the authors and works analyzed, with each section addressing different cultural and thematic issues. In this volume, nature is examined through various lenses: its fundamental elements - Per litteram -, its literary depictions - Per allegoriam -, its exotic aspects - Oriens ultime, noster eris -, the description of its pitfalls - Loca dira arcesque nefandae -, and its relationship with humanity in urban settings - Urbs antiqua fuit.
