En este escrito se ofrece no sólo el mapa topográfico de la Nápoles de Vico sino también el mapa humano de las interrelaciones que Vico mantuvo con tantos y tan diferentes individuos. Estos dos factores juntos, los mapas topográfico (ciudad) y humano (cívico), nos dan la ciudad que civiliza, la idea de una gran raza humana. Visitar la Nápoles de Vico nos daría el placer y la emoción de conocer verdaderamente a Vico como napolitano que fue y valorar así sus (...) escritos más íntimamente. El artículo se muestra, pues, como una "guía" mediante la cual el lector, a través de su imaginación, recorrerá el mundo vital de Vico; y una propuesta para visitar la ciudad partenopea siguiendo este itinerario.

The Latin text and the translation of The Conspiracy of the Prince of Macchia -- The making of the narration -- Authorities and documents of the narrative.

In September of 1701, events transpired in Naples that, through frequent retellings, became popularly known as “the conspiracy of the Prince of Macchia.” Rapidly gaining fame, this apparently anonymous narrative was soon incorporated by different historians in their history of the transition years between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. But who was the initial bard or narrator, the town clerk or citizen who first gave testimony of this event by creating a Latin text of the story of the Prince of (...) Macchia? Giambattista Vico was not among the claimants to the authorship of the fabulous story that changed the future of the Kingdom of Naples. Nevertheless, four scholars across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries were themselves convinced, and managed to convince the intellectual world as well, that Vico, then a young teacher of rhetoric at the University of Naples, was indeed the source of this original Latin narration of this oft retold Neapolitan history. This book provides the original Latin text with a parallel translation, as well as historical context and analysis of both the text's authorship history and the account itself. (shrink)
