Title: | Games in Julius Caeser Scaliger's Poetics | Authors: | Sánchez Marín, José A. | Keywords: | Renacimiento;Poética;Juegos;J.C. Escalígero;Renaissance;Poetics;Games;J. C. Scaliger | Issue Date: | 2011 | Publisher: | Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, Instituto de Estudos Clássicos | Abstract: | El primero de los Poetices Libri Septem de Escalígero dedica una extensión
notable -18 de los 57 capítulos de que consta el libro- a los Juegos atléticos

origen a celebraciones ocasionales de los pastores, a las que después se añadió la
competición. Se apuntan las posibles razones de su inclusión en la Poética. The first book of Scaliger’s Poetices Libri Septem devotes 18 of its 57 chapters to ancient athletic games, which are described by the author as “fables without words”. According to Scaliger, their origin would lie in occasional celebrations held by shepherds that later attached a competitive feature. The potential reasons for including games in Poetics are discussed. |
