La lingua di Adamo: Guillaume Postel tra accademici e fuorusciti fiorentini

Abstract

Piccola bibliotecato impose an Italian spiritual paternity upon his Geschlecht und Character and, on the other hand, to redeem the young Jewish prodigy by stressing his antisemitism (or is it anti-germanism?) in Ûber die letzten Dinge. The outstanding feature of this book is the comprehensive and cohesive coverage of a somewhat neglected field in Italian thought and letters. Mr. Cavaglion has demonstrated his scholarly ability, his wideranging familiarity with Italian intellectual life before and after World War I. In short. Otto Weininger in Italia is an excellent guidebook on a much debated period in Italian letters. I can recommend it for research libraries without reservations.
