Tratatul înlocuieşte vechile clasificări ale activităţilor în otium şi negotium şi adaugă o dimensiune etică, datorită căreia aceste categorii capătă atât forme corespunzătoare, cât şi necorespunzătoare. Distincţia dintre formele corespunzătoare şi cele necorespunzătoare de otium şi negotium este determinată de un principiu raţional în viziunea lui Ioan. Cu toate acestea, în context istoric mai larg, şi un număr de indicii intratextuale ridică suspiciunea că Policraticus ar fi putut funcţiona, de fapt, ca o satiră la adresa lui Henric…

An entire philosophical system was built around this concept, from the Classic Era to the Renaissance, and the ideology behind it represented the answer to certain existential questions that a collective unconscious had at a certain point. In spite of the many political and cultural differences between the Spanish and Romanian context, the prince reflected in both authors’ works seems…

Within the first half of the 16th century, in both Wallachia and Spain, prince Neagoe Basarab and Antonio de Guevara wrote two different mirrors and although they were unaware of each other´s work, a detailed analysis offers us an interesting panorama of the ethical values that reigned in two different corners of Europe.

The debate is undertaken within the framework of what F. Gómez Redondo calls “the order of the royal culture”, an ordo regis that supposes the duty to act in accordance with a project of common good, which relies on the separation between the person…

In his creative approach, Matthew reported at a well-established tradition, cultivated since Antiquity and throughout all the history of the Byzantine Empire. In analyzing this work, we therefore considered not only the Byzantine parenetic tradition, but also its ties with this “tutelary presence” (Dan Horia Mazilu) from the history of the Romanian literature represented by the Teachings of the Wallachian Prince. Moreover, the linguistic phenomena illustrated within the Advices of Matthew…
