From Johannes Romberch to Lodovico Dolce: The Metamorphosis of the Congestorium Artificiosae Memoriae
Abstract
In the present work we will analyze the influence of the Congestorium artificiosae memoriae (1520) by Johannes Romberch on the Dialogo del modo di accrescere e conservar la memoria (1562) by Lodovico Dolce. Romberch's work is one of the most recognized artificial memory treatises of its time and, nevertheless, it owes much of its dissemination to the Italian translation of the humanist Lodovico Dolce. In these lines we will study how the translator modifies the original text and the reasons that lead to it.
