    Description: From the middle of the 16th century, the practice of duelling, by then closely linked to the principle of honour and the defence of its integrity, became the subject of a large number of treatises addressed to a large audience of gentlemen, eager to know the most honourable ways to come to terms with the disputes that often involved them. Treatises on the duel, whose diffusion was favoured by the use of the vernacular and the intense publishing activity of the time, gave rise to a discipline, the science of chivalry, which played a decisive role in the diffusion of the myth of chivalry and in the definition of a common noble ethos. Through an indepth study, in Onorati gentiluomini e duellanti impavidi Giovanni Fiazza highlights the foundations of a way of understanding the division between the classes and social relations that would come to an end only two centuries later, with the end of the Old Regime.

    Description: Dalla metà del Cinquecento la pratica del duello, ormai strettamente legata al principio dell’onore e alla difesa della sua integrità, divenne l’oggetto di un ampio numero di trattati rivolti a un folto pubblico di gentiluomini, quanto mai desiderosi di conoscere i modi più onorevoli per venire a capo delle dispute che li vedevano spesso coinvolti. La trattatistica sul duello, la cui diffusione fu favorita dall’uso del volgare e dall’intensa attività editoriale dell’epoca, diede vita a una vera e propria disciplina, la scienza cavalleresca, che ebbe un ruolo determinante nella diffusione del mito della cavalleria e nella definizione di un comune ethos nobiliare. Approfondendone lo studio in Onorati gentiluomini e duellanti impavidi, Giovanni Fiazza mette in evidenza le basi di un modo di intendere la divisione tra i ceti e i rapporti sociali che sarebbe tramontato solamente due secoli dopo, con la fine dell’Antico Regime.
