Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Dante, Petrarque et Boccace ecrivent dans deux langues, le latin et le vernaculaire, et ils consacrent une partie de leur oeuvre a la reflexion philosophique. Il s’agit pour eux d’elaborer, a cote d’un savoir en latin, une culture philosophique dans les deux langues, qui puisse repondre aux attentes du nouveau public laic cultive des cours princieres. C’est pourquoi Dante defend le vernaculaire comme une langue possible de culture, ou Boccace presente une classification complexe de la fabula. Mais l’interrogation la plus significative concerne les criteres de la vie bonne, a la fois heureuse et vertueuse, qu’il s’agisse de penser l’universalite d’un modele politique et de se confronter aux ideaux universitaires, de prendre conge d’une morale universelle, ou de la difficulte de se reconnaitre soi-meme par l’imitation creatrice de modeles anciens. La physique ou la cosmologie ne sont pas dedaignees, mais restituees a leurs dimensions a la fois naturelles et symboliques.
