The booklet entitled "Centum et viginti articuli de natura et mundo adversus Peripateticos" constitutes the text of Giordano Bruno's theses against Aristotle's "Physica" and "De caelo", which he proposed and defended in Paris on 28 May 1586. Bruno published the theses on the occasion of a public disputation which was to last three days but which was abruptly suspended after the first session, during which some of those present vehemently contested the more radical theses defended by the philosopher (Bruno would return to these articles in his "Camoeracensis acrotismus", 1588). We only know of one extant copy of the short work written in 1586 (housed at the British Library in London), the text of which is being reproduced in the present volume together with some corrections, annotations and an Italian translation.
L'opuscolo "Centum et viginti articuli de natura et mundo adversus Peripateticos" presenta il testo delle tesi di Giordano Bruno, contro la "Fisica" e il "De caelo" di Aristotele, proposte e difese a Parigi il 28 maggio 1586. Le tesi vennero pubblicate da Bruno in occasione di una pubblica disputa che doveva durare tre giorni ma che fu sospesa, dopo il primo incontro, a causa di contestazioni, da parte di alcuni presenti, delle radicali tesi difese dal filosofo (Bruno riprenderà gli articoli nel "Camoeracensis acrotismus" del 1588). Dell'opuscolo del 1586 si conosce un solo esemplare, conservato presso la British Library di Londra, di cui nel presente volume si dà il testo con alcune integrazioni, annotato e con la traduzione in italiano.

Abstract
The booklet entitled "Centum et viginti articuli de natura et mundo adversus Peripateticos" constitutes the text of Giordano Bruno's theses against Aristotle's "Physica" and "De caelo", which he proposed and defended in Paris on 28 May 1586. Bruno published the theses on the occasion of a public disputation which was to last three days but which was abruptly suspended after the first session, during which some of those present vehemently contested the more radical theses defended by the philosopher (Bruno would return to these articles in his "Camoeracensis acrotismus", 1588). We only know of one extant copy of the short work written in 1586 (housed at the British Library in London), the text of which is being reproduced in the present volume together with some corrections, annotations and an Italian translation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
