Per Conciliare Il Sonno: Dialoghi Tra Pasquino, E Marforio... presents a fascinating glimpse into the world of 16th-century Italian political satire. This collection of dialogues features the iconic Roman statues Pasquino and Marforio engaging in witty and often biting commentary on the political and social issues of their time.
Anonymous in origin, these dialogues offer invaluable insights into popular opinion and dissent during a turbulent period in Roman history. The interplay between Pasquino, the voice of the common people, and Marforio, who poses the questions, creates a dynamic and engaging form of political discourse.
This work provides a unique perspective on the concerns and criticisms circulating within Roman society, making it an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts interested in Italian history, literature, and political thought. Its enduring appeal lies in its clever use of satire to challenge authority and expose the follies of power.
