The rooms for the tournament Angel Poliziano is a poem in the vernacular in the eighth, made during the tournament organized in 1475 by Lorenzo the Magnificent to celebrate the success of diplomacy.
Although the main reason is that the composition encomiastic, to sing the company of Giuliano, Lorenzo's brother and winner of the tournament, and even if the title gives the impression of a poem that Narrattiva presenrerà svolgimengto of the carousel, in reality there can be no real space to the description of the event as it is sung in the Song of Bacchus Lorenzo belonging to the same kind of poetry in the eighth, to take the place of mythological events are the central theme of vengeance of Cupid and Julius of the nymph of being in the young Simon to sing the same Platonic love for a woman Florentine Giuliano of the same name. This clearly reflects the characteristic feature of the poetics of the police: to compose freely, according to the ideal of "docta varietas, especially through frequent mythological digressions.
However, it is the language of the myth that the work of the police may be emblematic of the spirit as an expression of the humanist culture of the second four hundred, which is now saturated and that feeds Neoplatonic idealism: what the mythological touch us depicts is a world made up of beauty, whiteness, and I mean all the perfections which the humanist ideals like Poliziano sucks. The neo-Platonic-idealistic spirit is reflected in both the description of Simon in the form of everything perfect and ideal of the female figure, both in the love that the young Julio test for the nymph: love conceived and developed in the spiritual dimension, which is expressed in 'ecstasy of the beauty of the girl and is intended as a means of spiritual perfection.
E 'was thus inherited the concept developed by the previous poem. The verses are imbued with transparencies of the Poliziano references to a number of great experiences of two and fourteenth-century literature, especially those stilnovistica and Petrarch, which is affected by the deification of women, explicitly compared to the divinity, that is described as a creature of God, in the second half of themes of honesty, humility, kindness, etc.., typical of stilnovisti Dante, and the delicacy and beauty of the natural landscape that reinforce with those of the woman-angela.
While it is indebted to the great schools of literary precedent for having caught the reasons expressive and conceptual blending in a happy and harmonious synthesis, Poliziano also exceeded the drawing fomale drawing unprecedented perfection: the refinement of lexical and preciousness of the images are the mark of all his poetry. It takes just the greatness of the poet if you understand that, with its ways, it is up to a huge and decisive step forward in the evolution of the vernacular in the literary sense that is the national language: it is raised to the level of a language capable of rivaling Classical Latin, which for centuries has dominated the world of writing. In merit of this contribution, the story has crowned the Police eternal fame and veneration.
