Nonetheless, till now a full class of documents has been considered only erratically: the inaugural lectures (also known as 'paginae') of the single university courses given from the Renaissance to the beginning of the eighteenth century. Scholars of university history know that each of the countless inaugural lectures till extant in archives and libraries is an interesting document, revealing the tenets of university culture in a specific place and time; however, few research campaigns have been conducted on these documents with the aim of improving sistematically our understanding of the history of university culture in general, or of specific trends in it. Main obstacles to these enterprises are the large number of extant documents and their dispersion. DArIL aims to facilitate scholars to overcome these difficulties, providing them with an access to a digital collection of searchable descriptions, digital photo-reproductions and codified transcriptions of 'paginae'.

Il primo e più celebre romanzo, Il nome della rosa (1980), ha indubbiamente il merito di aver attirato l'attenzione del comune lettore verso il pensiero del medioevo, solitamente trascurato o poco noto. Ma questa riscoperta è contrassegnata da un'immagine negativa e deformante del medioevo monastico e delle sue concezioni filosofiche. Invece il medioevo scolastico (Ruggero Bacone, Marsilio a Padova e soprattutto Guglielmo di Ockham) viene letto da Eco con occhi molto moderni, anzi "postmoderni", per cui del pensiero medioevale in se stesso rimane molto poco. Parole chiave: Umberto Eco, romanzo storico, filosofia medievale.

When confronted with the rise and diffusion of the new philosophy and of the new science, the authors of philosophical manuals basically follow three different directions: beside the defenders of the Aristotelian-Scholastic tradition and the enthusiastic innovators (who were usually followers of Descartes), there emerges a third conspicuous orientation, which tries to take a middle course and draws inspiration from the ‘philosophia eclectica’ understood as a path independent of the various philosophical schools. At the same time, the historico-philosophical perspective starts to be introduced into the systematic manual of philosophy, to the extent that it becomes an autonomous treatment with respect to the manual itself. Keywords : Aristotelianism, Cartesianism, commentarium , man...
